爱吃三不沾的略略略

The itinerary was perfectly balanced. I dread those rushed tours where you sleep on the bus and only need to pee when you get off, but this trip had just the right pace! There was ample time for photos and exploration each day, so it never felt rushed. All the classic tourist attractions were included, plus several hidden gems that are usually inaccessible on independent trips, and a stunning mountaintop viewpoint – the moment I saw the view, I knew it was all worth it!

The sightseeing cars, adventure cars and other transportation are clean and tidy, and the operation is orderly, saving physical strength for tourists and improving the efficiency of play.

The Big Buddha Temple is a famous attraction in Zhangye. The huge sleeping Buddha in the temple is spectacular. It is not easy to preserve such a long-historic building. There are also Buddhist relics and treasured Buddhist scriptures in the temple. There is a tower behind the temple, which can enter the first floor to circle the tower for a week.

Zhangye Binggou Danxia and Colorful Danxia scenery are completely different feelings, but they are all beautiful. Colorful Danxia is a colorful magnificent mountain and river, and Binggou Danxia is a ghostly cliff-peak landform, very magnificent and very special. In the scenic area, you need to take the scenic transportation car. It still takes physical strength to visit. You must pay attention to sun protection, prepare water, and play time is about three hours.

The attraction of Alien Valley is a niche attraction, all self-driving, few people are beautiful, very spectacular, very shocking. The scenic spot is one step at a time, and I feel like I am taking pictures all the way. To go to the Alien Valley, you must first navigate to the Alien Valley Visitor Center to buy tickets, and then the staff will send a positioning, follow the positioning and open the navigation, there is only one road, there is no signal in the middle, until you see the gate of the satellite valley. The scenery seen before from the visitor center to the gate was also beautiful and very characteristic, and we also got off the bus and took a lot of photos

On the third day of the National Day trip, the journey from Zhangye to Jiuquan was long, so we arranged to go to the snow mountain first. It is indeed not famous, but the scenery is nice, and you may see marmots, but we didn’t see any. It was cold and windy, so you needed to wear a thin down jacket and gloves. There were plank roads all the way, but the altitude was 3900-4000m. This was the day with the fewest steps on the trip. We walked more than 8,000 meters and had not yet reached the end. I flew a drone, and it may not have been halfway, but I still felt very tired. It took 2 hours, plus the round trip bus ride was about 3 hours. There were not many people in the scenic area, so there was no need to queue.
