    "Finally boarded the boat to the desert. Shahu is a resort with water and sand, finally can come and see today! The lake is very clear, the scenic staff enthusiastically guided us on the route, intimately reminded us to pay attention to safety when getting on and off the boat, and there are many amusement facilities in the scenic spot: there are seaplanes, drifting boats, off-road vehicles, camels riding, and many entertainment projects. The camel caught my eye immediately, and it knelt, chewing in its mouth; standing, chewing in its mouth; walking, chewing. They were chewing on what had not been chewed before. But when they stood up, the camel shook and shivered, very funny. But don't scare them, or they will be shaken off! There are also seaplanes, must recommend, play it not only to wear heavy helmets, but also to wear life jackets, get on the plane, we will leave! Warm reminder, when on the water, you will be splashed into the water, once flying to the sky, the pressure will make you speechless. Flying to the sky, looking down, Shahu is like a "golden treasure", no wonder everyone calls it "yuan treasure" lake."
