Where did the small fishing lake in saline-alkali land become a 5A-level scenic spot?

Old reed, now Jinsha Lake. It is Ningxia!

"Come on, let's go to Ningxia and start before dawn ..." A popular song tells the charm of Ningxia tourism.

Then the problem is coming. Where do you want to go first in Ningxia?

"Yes, this year's' Eleventh', the family will come to Hu Sha!" Mr. Chen, a media worker from Zhejiang, was on a business trip in Ningxia not long ago, which completely subverted his impression of Ningxia.

"Being stuck in the south of the Yangtze River deserves its reputation!" Mr. Chen told reporters that he was surprised by the one-day trip from Hu Sha Pier to Bird Island and Sand Island.

Clear water, beaches, reeds, birds, distant mountains ... People who love quiet can walk on the sand island, step barefoot on the hot beach, watch the calm blue lake, watch the reeds swaying in the wind, and watch the birds fly freely for a long time and enjoy the rare peace.

Noisy people can take part in high-altitude paragliding, jet skiing, camel riding, or take a cableway to roar down from the sky, enjoy the panoramic view of Husha Lake and feel the stimulation of accelerated heartbeat.

"There are both exquisite in the south and rough in the northwest. This blend of sand and water makes people linger! " Mr. Chen smiled.

"Golden beach, silver silk water, who does not say that we are beautiful in sand lakes; Stuck on the scenery, Jiangnan scenery, people don't want to go back in Husha Lake. " Who would have thought that 20 years ago, it was just a small fishing lake in saline-alkali land?

Twenty-seven years, a 5A-level scenic spot was achieved.

Husha Lake was originally a butterfly wetland in Xidatan of Yinchuan Plain. Because it looks like an ingot, it is also called "Yuanbao Lake".

In February, 1952, 5804 officers and men of the 1st Division of Agricultural Construction of China People's Liberation Army came to Xidatan to reclaim land, build water conservancy projects, build houses and plant trees in this saline-alkali land where "winter is white and summer is water, and nothing grows because of the wind".

Dock repair, dock construction, cruise ship construction ... The desert fields and sand lakes in the overgrown jungle have become state-owned forward farms with criss-crossing ditches, trees and fertile fields.

1 990 may1day, Hu Sha tourism officially opened. With a tourist boat and the original fishery production boat, Hu Sha received 6.5438+0.5 million tourists that year, with a tourism income of 547,000 yuan and a profit of 55,000 yuan, which was 6.5438+0 times that of previous years. Since then, Hu Sha has entered a new world of tourism development.

In 2007, the National Tourism Administration officially announced 66 5A-level scenic spots in China, and Husha Scenic Area in Ningxia was on the list.

20 15, Hu Sha Tourist Area won the title of "National Eco-tourism Demonstration Zone".

At that time, the clear water on the saline-alkali beach was a gift from nature. Today's sand lake, the lake dotted with golden beaches, the green lake covered with sand, the birds in the sky, the reeds in the lake, the lotus flowers in the distance and the fish in the vicinity constitute a harmonious and moving picture.

The beaches and lakes depict a beautiful picture of the four seasons.

The water in Husha Lake is called "Tianhe Water" because it is rich in water, including rainfall and groundwater, as well as the flood discharged from Helan Mountain, supplemented by some Yellow River water, so as to maintain an appropriate water level all the year round.

Now you can visit Husha Lake all year round.

Come boating in spring and summer, there are colorful waves on the lake. In the white waves, in the bright waves, beside the dark green reeds, and in other red lotus flowers, the feelings of Shahu Lake are expressed. When we came to the south bank, we were presented with gold connected with gold and sand mountain connected with sand mountain. Ascending to the distance, the water and sky are the same, and the golden sand mountains are panoramic, which is refreshing.

Autumn has come, and the water in Husha Lake has become more pure. Like a master painter with profound attainments, he is open-minded and self-contained. She dyed the blue of the sky in the water, rendered the reeds in the water lane green, outlined the golden color of the beach as a reflection, and painted the autumn on the water colorful. This time is also the best bird watching season. Great bustard, black stork, merganser, swan and other national first-class and second-class protected birds have also settled down, becoming aristocrats among more than 30 species of birds in Hu Sha 13 orders, 30 families 130.

In winter, the water surface of Shahu Lake is completely frozen into ice, and the sand island is covered with snow, a silvery white, shaking in front of my eyes. Walking on the sand lake, the deeper you go, the more you feel integrated with the world. There are natural skating rinks, artificial ski resorts and various ice and snow facilities, which can make you play for one day without repeating.
