Discover Western Xia heritage, Helan Mountain rock art, the Ming Great Wall’s military marvels and the stunning Yellow River-desert fusion at Shapotou on this unforgettable Yinchuan-based exploration of northern China’s hidden gems.

    Itinerary Quick Look

    Day 1: Yinchuan – Uncover Western Xia’s Ancient Charms

    Your journey starts with convenient door-to-door pickup in Yinchuan.

    Visit the Western Xia Imperial Tombs for 2 hours. It’s a grand royal mausoleum, a unique legacy of the Western Xia Dynasty.

    Spend 2 hours at Helan Mountain Rock Paintings. These ancient cliff carvings form an art corridor, recording nomadic tribes’ life from thousands of years ago.
    End the day with a 3-hour tour of China Western Film Studios (Zhenbeipu). Step into classic Chinese film sets. Wander old streets and desert courtyards, and feel filmmaking magic in Ningxia’s rugged scenery.

    Day 2: Yellow River Gorge & Desert Wonders – Where Water Meets Sand

    Embark on a day of stunning natural and cultural contrasts.

    Visit Qingtongxia 108 Tower for 2 hours. These Western Xia Buddhist pagodas line a hillside, overlooking the Yellow River Gorge with breathtaking river and mountain views.

    Explore Shapotou District for 3 hours in the afternoon. It’s the iconic spot where the Yellow River meets the Tengger Desert. Witness the amazing blend of rolling sand dunes and gentle river currents.

    Day 3: Historical Military Legacy – Ming Great Wall & Yinchuan Farewell

    Bid adieu to the desert and drive back to Yinchuan.

    Spend 4 hours at Shuidonggou Ruins & Ming Great Wall, an ancient Ming Dynasty military defense base.

    See China’s most solid, well-preserved Ming Great Wall section with an ingenious structural design.

    Visit the Warriors Burrow—China’s only fully preserved ancient 3D military defense system, a clever tunnel network for hiding soldiers.
