The most desolate city in China.

The most desolate city in China is Mangya City.

20 18 was officially put on the market, but it was the only place where the ancient Silk Road passed, the post station where Zhang Qian passed, the fortress where Gansu entered Xinjiang in Qinghai, and the "west gate" of Qinghai Province. It is an important supply station of National Highway 3 15, so it is an ancient city.

Mangya City has no man's land on three sides, a barren desert on one side, no man's land in Hoh Xil to the south, no man's land in Altun Mountain to the west, no man's land in Lop Nur to the north and Qaidam Basin, the fifth largest desert in China to the east. Fiona Fang, Fiona Fang, 200 kilometers away without a county seat, is the youngest and loneliest city in China.

The car is driving on the lonely and desolate national highway 3 15, starting from Xining, all the way over the mountains and mountains, passing by Qinghai Lake, crossing the desert, Gobi and no man's land, and reaching Mangya City. This road is extremely desolate, but it is full of wonders. I am in hell and my eyes are in heaven.
