The Tengger Desert Hides the Heart of Earth

The "Heart of Earth" that beats for only 3 months is hidden in China's most Mars-like landscape, along with the Devil's Night Banquet, Apple Juice Lakes, and Snow Mountain Flower Seas: A Summer Limited Edition of Northwest China. Why is midsummer perfect for visiting the Northwest?

Summer is nature's gift to this land: the most breathtaking and unique landscapes of Northwest China all present their best viewing periods.

Ningxia: The Heart of Earth
⏳Limited viewing period: July-September
❤️Red Heart Lake: Ulan Lake, China's most representative alkaline lake landscape. With little summer rainfall, low water levels, and high salinity, microorganisms like salt algae display a vivid red hue, resembling a pulsating heart of the earth.

🔸Luxury stay by the Yellow River: Ancient villages along the Yellow River, featuring private courtyard accommodations; prime season bookings are limited, but Honghu guests enjoy priority access.
"Summer in the Northwest is a grand celebration"
When September's winds carry away the last traces of summer heat, Ulan Lake's "heart" will gradually quiet down, the Devil City's night banquet silently concludes, and the flower seas retreat into the embrace of snow-capped mountains. The Northwest returns to its vast, desolate essence.
But those who have witnessed its midsummer splendor will forever remember—salt lakes like blood, deserts resembling Mars, and starry skies so low they seem within reach.
