Sunflowers hold their heads high.

Venue: Bayannaoer, Inner Mongolia

Time: late July-early August

The most fascinating time in Hetao Plain may be the summer when sunflowers are in full bloom. Bayannaoer is currently the largest sunflower planting base in China. From Urad Qianqi to Wuyuan, and from He Lin to Dengkou, you can see golden sunflowers all the way, whether by car or by train.

In particular, the highway along the Yellow River from Dengkou to Wuhai extends to the west bank of the Yellow River, and the beaches along the way are sunflower fields. Every summer and autumn, sunflowers are in full bloom, and expressway becomes a landscape avenue, which go on road trip can't miss.

The grassland season is about to begin. How to choose the grassland that suits you best?

Grassland is the most beautiful season.

Venue: Gannan Grassland, Gansu Province

Time: August

Gannan grassland is like a thick green carpet inlaid with flowers from Ge Sang. The river twists and turns, and the wind and grass see cattle and sheep. The alpine meadows such as Shandan Racecourse, Horseshoe Temple and Rouge Mountain under Qilian Mountain are also beautiful and suitable for summer vacation.

On August 13 every year, a week-long horse racing festival-"Gesar Horse Racing Conference" is held at Maqu County Racecourse, which is one of the largest and most influential traditional horse racing events in Tibetan areas.

Bird watching in the wetland is just the right time.

Venue: Qiqihar, Heilongjiang

Time: July-August

For birdwatchers, the wetlands in northeast China are a paradise of dreams. On the marshland of Zhalong Wetland in Qiqihar, the elegant pace of red-crowned cranes remains unchanged all year round.

Every year from mid-March to late June, hundreds of migrating red-crowned cranes stay in Zhalong Wetland in Qiqihar. There are only 2,200 endangered wild animals in the world, and nearly 300 of them are kept in cages in the nature reserve, which has become the biggest highlight of Zhalong to attract tourists. Zhalong Wetland is the largest in Asia, and the scenic spot is only a small part of it. It is worth making a special trip to fly the red-crowned crane every day, and you can slowly visit this wetland wherever you go.

Along the plank road, you can also see the largest white-naped crane, common gray crane and rare white crane in China in the cage of rare birds. Occasionally I will meet a few free-range red-crowned cranes walking in the park. However, it should be noted that the red-crowned crane is not afraid of people, even fierce. Try not to get too close to or touch them. At the same time, in order not to disturb the red-crowned crane, aerial photography tools are prohibited in the park.

When Tricholoma matsutake was unearthed, it was located in Diqing, Yunnan.

Time: July-August

Diqing is not a well-known destination, but almost everyone knows Shangri-La. Since ancient times, Diqing has never been a place far away from the hubbub. For thousands of years, all ethnic groups have come and gone on this plateau on the eastern edge of Tibet. Buttered tea, Ciba, yak meat, Dai barbecue and red wine rice are probably the most "secular" and diverse Tibetan areas.

Rain brings abundant Tricholoma matsutake, so don't miss this delicious food when you go to Diqing. In the high-yield period of fungi, especially Tricholoma matsutake, a large number of fresh fungi will be sent to you by local people at the first time, so don't miss the opportunity of early adopters.

Enthusiastic interest will produce new ideas.

Venue: Enshi, Hubei

Time: July-August

Every July and August, the height of the mountain blocks the dryness and heat of the plain, especially near Lichuan, Chongqing, and saves the people of the provincial capital from the stove. Qingjiang, the mother river of Enshi, is cool and clear, and sailing is the most enjoyable.

The mountains and rivers here all have the "wildest" side-the earth stylist arranged the most complete karst landform here and created a spectacular national geological park. On the winding Panshan Highway, you can see cliffs and peaks across the sky. Jumping to the bottom of the valley are cracks, sinkholes, caves and underground rivers that crack the surface and go deep underground. From time to time, a waterfall rushes out of the steep rock wall and falls to the bottom of the pool. The water is refreshing. Enshi Grand Canyon, Qingjiang ancient riverbed, Luyuanping hiking, Qingjiang rafting and Tenglongdong cruise are all the closest "contacts".

Enshi has the largest number of ethnic minorities in this province. They enjoy themselves in this isolated world. Swing dance, dragon boat tune and Xilankapu are all ways to relieve boredom on weekdays. The high-speed railway opened in recent years has basically eliminated those dangerous sections. If you want to come to the "westernmost" of Hubei, you must be "wild".

The holiday season coincides with the fragrance of fruits.

Location: North Xinjiang

Time: August to September

Generally speaking, the best time for hiking in mountainous areas of Xinjiang is from June to September. Festivals make hiking routes more colorful. Hiking in the grassland area of northern Xinjiang in August, you may meet Mongolian Jockey Club or Nadam Convention. Hiking in the Tianshan grassland between summer and autumn, you may also encounter the lively Eid al-Adha Festival in Kazakhstan.

August-September is the season when fruits and vegetables in Xinjiang are fragrant. It's just a feast, and you can also experience the joy of celebrating the harvest of all ethnic groups along the way. Tourism festivals around the country are also rich and colorful.

Turpan Grape Festival is held in Grape Valley every August, where you can experience the joy of grape harvesting and picking, and you can also enjoy the traditional Uygur song and dance performances.

Nadam every year from the end of July to the beginning of August, at the racecourse behind Jiang 'er Palace, you can enjoy the three major arts of Mongolian men: wrestling, horse racing and archery.

Ding Zhen is not the only one in Litang.

Venue: Litang, Sichuan

Time: late July-early August

Litang Jockey Club is famous for its scale, attracting countless Kangba people, Amdo horses and riders at home and abroad every year. The most exquisite costumes and the most cheerful songs and dances are on display these days. What is particularly interesting is that Kangba men try to dress more luxuriously than girls.

Litang Jockey Club was transformed from the blessing ceremony of "Mountain Crossing in June", and the local government fixed the festival at 1 August 9641day, thus establishing the famous Litang Bayi International Jockey Club. In recent years, the Jockey Club has gradually changed from an official activity to a folk activity, and the date is still the golden age of grassland in late July and early August. This year's Jockey Club is scheduled to be held from July 26th to July 29th. At this time, accommodation and transportation resources are in short supply, so it is better to prepare in advance.

Beibu Gulf Maritime Open Festival

Venue: Guangxi Beibu Gulf

Time: August

August is the day of sea fishing, marking the beginning of the fat seafood season. With Beihai as the center, Fangchenggang, Qinzhou and other Beibu Gulf cities will hold various food and cultural activities.

Sunshine, beach, sea, or the more fashionable 3S (Sun/Beach/Sea) name, who can resist their temptation? Subtropical islands, fresh air and delicious (and cheap) seafood, how many people have been there for a long time? Beibu Gulf enjoys these advantages: Jin Tan, Yintan and Bailangtan, and every coastal city has soft beaches; Seafood just unloaded from fishing boats is waiting to be eaten at Qiaogang, _ Wei and Weizhou Island. What is even more rare is that compared with Hainan, or the famous coastal islands in the Pearl River Delta and Yangtze River Delta, the tourism enthusiasm in Beibu Gulf is always lower and the cost performance is higher.

Summer drifting location: Wuyuan, Jiangxi

Time: July-August

The photos of golden rape flowers are not enough to summarize Wuyuan, and the main colors are green mountains and green waters, white walls and white tiles. Although it is a small village, it is more exquisite than the prefecture-level cities and county-level cities you have been to before. Just from this point, it is enough to convince you of the title of "the most beautiful village in China".

Wuyuan is a master of Huizhou villages. Since ancient times, Shan Ye people have been either businessmen or Confucian businessmen. The mottled old house reveals the glorious past, and Zhong Ling Yuxiu has a Jiangnan rhyme that is louder than words. Both ancient architecture lovers and local cultural roots seekers will be deeply attracted by it.

Everyone's views on Wuyuan may be very different. If you are disappointed because you have only visited famous scenic spots, don't put the blame on the tourism developers or you come later than others. Wuyuan is very big, so far there is no strategy to exhaust it. The village of "not seeing the world" is an ideal destination for deep travel, and it also tests whether travelers can play. Now, staying in Wuyuan village, your choice is not limited to farmhouse music. There are boutique inns on the east and north lines where old houses have been rebuilt, which are commendable in terms of design grade, facility level, sleeping comfort and service details.

In addition to these, the drifting in Wulongyuan is cool and exciting during the drifting season from July to August.

Play hydrolysis high temperature

Venue: Qinling Mountain, Shaanxi Province

Time: July-August

The weather in Shaanxi is hot, so playing with water is a pleasure to relieve the high temperature. However, during the summer vacation, Xi is a popular destination for student tourists, and the earlier you book accommodation, the better.

There are many drifting projects along the valleys and rivers in Qinling Mountains, and the hot summer is the most suitable for swimming. Even if Xi 'an is a hot day above 35℃, the summer heat will still disappear if you go deep into the Qinling Mountains, so you need to wear a long-sleeved coat to avoid catching cold. Why not find a mountain to live in for two days?
