Ten scenic spots that Ningxia must visit. Where have you been?

I know this! I have worked and lived in Ningxia for three years and know it very well. Now I will share the information of the top ten must-see scenic spots in Ningxia with friends in need ~

1, Chengtian Temple Tower

brief introduction

In the middle of Chengtian Temple, an ancient pagoda stands in the clouds and is called "West Tower". It is the tallest brick tower among the existing 100 pagodas in Ningxia, and it is also the only ancient pagoda with a recorded age in Ningxia.

The gate of Chengtian Temple opens to the east, which is different from the gates of most temples in the Central Plains. It may be related to the worship of the East or the sun by Xixia people. After entering the gate, the main buildings such as Five Buddhas Hall, Pagoda, Wei Tuo Hall and Sleeping Buddha Hall are located on the east-west axis. The building is connected with small doors and walls, and the courtyard is visited. There is a very simple brick carving hanging on the small door. Climb the 60-meter-high Chengtian Temple Tower and overlook the old city of Yinchuan through the bright windows. There are six old Sophora japonica trees with a history of more than 400 years around Chengtian Pagoda, which are in harmony with the exquisite carvings on the zhaobi wall and full of quaint atmosphere.
