Which deserts in China have beautiful scenery?

Our impression of the desert is lifeless and dusty, so it is also called the land of death. However, there are so many deserts in China, which are not only beautiful but also charming. So where are these deserts? Today, Lao Wei will take you into the story behind these deserts.

First, Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Spring.

Crescent Moon Spring is a household name, and Mingsha Mountain and Crescent Moon Spring together constitute this desert miracle. Climb up Mingsha Mountain and overlook the whole crescent spring. At the top of Mingsha Mountain, you can enjoy the magnificent scenery of the desert at sunset. If people fall from the top of the mountain, the sand will fall with them, and the noise will be like thunder. If you board the ship at night, you can even see the sparks generated by the friction with the yellow sand when people fall, which is very spectacular. Crescent spring surrounds Mingsha Mountain. Because it has the characteristics of Jiangnan water town, it is called "blocking Jiangnan". It is precisely because of the roughness of the desert, the softness of the spring water and the shocking rock wall art of the Mogao Grottoes that * * * jointly created this desert wonder.

Second, the hinterland of Taklimakan desert

Taklimakan Desert is located in the middle of Tarim Basin in China, running through 1000 km from east to west. There are sand dunes hundreds of meters high and sand walls several meters high. When people drive into this area, there are no specific landmarks, and you are just a trivial dot under the sky, which makes people sigh that life is so vast and fleeting. At the same time, standing on the red and white mountains and watching the dense golden Populus euphratica forests on both sides of Hotan River will never be forgotten. In fact, in this place called the sea of death by outsiders, several rivers nourish this barren land, use up as much water as possible, and form a natural "green corridor" in the hinterland of the desert, providing shelter and hope for the guests who come here.

Three. Shapotou

Shapotou is located on the southeast edge of Tengger Desert and the north bank of the Yellow River. It is named because there is a large sand dike with a width of 2000 meters and a height of about 100 meters on the river bank. The Yellow River separates the Loess Plateau from the Tengger Desert. In the Tengger Desert, you can see the spectacular scenery of deserts, rivers, mountains and oases. At the same time, it is also a place where China has made great achievements in sand control, so it is famous all over the world. In the Tengger Desert, you won't see a dead silence. On the contrary, you will see lush plants and lively animals, which also brings infinite vitality and motivation to this desert. Shapotou is backed by the majestic Qilian Mountain, connected to the majestic Tengger Desert in the north and the surging Yellow River in the middle, creating the beautiful scenery of Shapotou Mountain, desert and green water.
