Every autumn in October, Ejina Banner in Inner Mongolia always attracts tourists from all directions with its romantic, charming, orange, red, gold and green Populus euphratica forest. However, because this place belongs to Mobei fortress sung by the ancients in Tang poetry and Song poetry, in addition to enjoying the Populus euphratica forest for 3,000 years, there are naturally deserts and Gobi, filled with cold sand and endless smoke. Ejina Banner has the Badain Jaran Desert, the third largest desert in China, covering an area of 47,000 square kilometers. The most famous desert landscape in Ejina is near Badao Bridge in the last part of Huyanglin Scenic Area.

Ejina has 28,000 square kilometers of Badain Jaran Desert. Badao Bridge is located in the hinterland of the northern edge of Badain Jaran Desert. Enter from a bridge in Huyanglin Scenic Area, and take sightseeing bus to Badao Bridge via Erdao Bridge and Sidao Bridge. Badao Bridge is a combination of Populus euphratica forest and desert landscape, with a theme sports park of Shahai Kingdom, which is in zero distance contact with Badain Jilin, the most beautiful desert in China.

Badain Jaran Desert is the main part of Alashan Desert. It is not only the third largest desert in China, but also the only desert with dense distribution of tall sand mountains in the world. It has always been regarded by experts and scholars as the main source of sandstorms in China. I thought Badao Bridge was a desolate Qiangdi scene, with yellow sand flying into the sky from the desert. However, when I arrived at the scenic spot, I found there were sand mountains, Populus euphratica bushes, blue waves, reeds, waterfowl playing and shallow fish fragrance. It's simply a beautiful picture of Mobei Jiangnan!

Seen from the air, the endless Badain Jaran Desert is like a golden ocean, cascading ups and downs and stretching the sky. The sand ridges blown by the cold north wind are angular and smooth, and solidify into beautiful waves of gold, water and copper. And the blue sky and blue lake are more like a broad-minded mother, gently holding this golden sand sea in her arms! The careful reader noticed that there was a white plane on the sand hill on the right. Guess why it is here?

Badao Bridge is really a magical place, half desert and half lake! Deserts give people a feeling of loneliness and death, while lakes give people a hope of life. It is not only an excellent place to shoot sunrise and sunset in the desert, but also a campsite designated by the relevant departments of Ejina Banner. Here, you can feel the roughness and magnificence of the desert without going deep into the hinterland of Badain Jaran Desert. You can experience the infinite customs accompanied by sand lakes; You can sit around your lover and watch the sunrise and sunset and enjoy romance!

Gold inlaid with jade-the enchanting blue sand lake is like a nephrite inlaid on the super gold medal in Badain Jaran Desert. Is warm, is moist, is passionate, is inseparable, is lingering! At the bottom of the sand dune, by the lake, Hu Sha silently nursed the children of Populus euphratica, shrub, reed, Haloxylon ammodendron, Caragana korshinskii, overlord, Artemisia sphaerocephala, Achnatherum splendens, camel thorn and so on with her precious milk!

Deserts in the world are all caused by lack of water, but in Badain Jaran, where the annual precipitation is less than 40mm and the drought is extremely serious, there is a spectacle of coexistence of deserts and lakes that puzzles the whole world: there are not only the highest sand mountain in China and even the world-Jigerusha Peak, with an altitude of1.700m and a relative height of 502m, but also inland lakes of all sizes, with about1.

Water is the most amazing thing on the blue planet of the earth. It is the symbol of life and the creator of miracles! Once the dead desert is nourished by water, it immediately becomes smart and full of vitality. The sand lake of Badaoqiao not only provides an ideal living environment for nearby human beings and wildlife, but also creates an amazing desert ecological culture in which human beings and nature coexist harmoniously.

Shallow wetlands, reeds swaying, deep pools and clear waters, seagulls jumping, sand nests in the lee of the coast, all kinds of trees, shrubs and herbs growing wantonly: green, yellow, orange and red, holding the hope of prolonging life! Lakes and sand nests are powerful biospheres and desert miracles that create life!

Most lakes in Badain Jaran Desert are salty and can't be drunk. The lush plants around the lakeshore are mostly hygrophytic and halophyte, with the lake as the center and concentric distribution with the surrounding sand dunes. From the air, it can be clearly seen that white saline-alkali travertine is deposited on the lake shore of the desert.

In the vast Badain Jaran desert, there are many graceful sand ridges along the lake shore, and many sand nests like water waves, auricles and spiral cases are formed between the sand ridges. In addition to the long yellow sand, there is a red and blue lake, and clusters of Populus euphratica, Salix psammophila, Artemisia annua, Misha and camel thorn in the sand nest add a little vitality to the desert!

The majestic sand mountain, mysterious singing sand, quiet and beautiful lake wetland, patches of Populus euphratica and Hippophae rhamnoides all constitute the charming and unique temperament of Badain Jaran Desert where Badao Bridge is located! Never been to Dunhuang? Never seen Mingsha Mountain or Crescent Spring? There are plenty here! The deep blue lake firmly supplements the heart-shaped spring, crescent spring, semi-Yue Quan and full moon spring in the desert! There are no railings and ropes here. You can walk barefoot by the spring in the desert in light red tulle to fulfill your dream, a romantic and confusing Arabic style blockbuster!

Of course, to play in the desert, you must experience the excitement of surfing on the beach by riding a motorcycle and driving an off-road vehicle. In addition, play camel riding, sand skiing or barefoot mountain climbing on Badao Bridge with sand and water, although these messy footprints will damage the silky skin of sand dunes. But it doesn't matter, nature will use its best violent aesthetics to erase these traces overnight. Come here again the next day, and you may be amazed: if life is just like the first time, why draw a fan in the autumn wind!

It is said that Badao Bridge is one of the best destinations for photographers and desert adventure cross-country enthusiasts, which combines the "male, beautiful, strange, dangerous, quiet, open and unique" of Badain Jaran Desert. "Lonely smoke in the desert, the long river setting the yen" is also the ultimate desert scenery pursued by tourists. When the sunset slowly sets in a gorgeous golden robe, Ran Ran, the golden red desert and the jasper-like sand lake are immediately greeted, radiant, resplendent and sparkling. With the enthusiastic cheers of tourists, the artistic conception of ancient poetry seems to have been thoroughly interpreted and sublimated here-the Eight Bridges reached the extreme!
