Wang Wei's Ancient Juyan · Stunning Sunrise

Ejina Banner Juyan Lake🌊
(Mongolian for "Heavenly Lake"✨)

Finally checked in at my dream destination! Got up at 5 AM to chase the sunrise. Although the clouds were too thick to see the golden mountain sunrise🌄, the view of the reeds bathed in the morning glow was breathtaking!

🌅 Highly recommended:
1⃣️ Boat bird-watching experience is super worth it! Free boarding with a guide's ID🚢
2⃣️ Surrounded by seagulls is incredibly romantic
3⃣️ The scene of the sunrise crossing the reed marsh is amazing
4⃣️ Remember to bring a thick jacket; the temperature difference between morning and night is huge

📍 Location:
Dalaihobu Town, Ejina Banner, Alxa League, Inner Mongolia (Search "Juyan Lake Scenic Area" for navigation)

✨ Tips:
- Best viewing time: Mid to late October during the Populus euphratica forest season
- Ticket price about 120 RMB
- Recommended to drive or hire a car
- The scenic area has viewing platforms and wooden walkways
- Must get up early! Sunrise is as early as 5:30 AM

Deep in the northwest desert,
Encountering the spectacle of flocks of seagulls dancing,
It feels like traveling back into Wang Wei’s poetic world,
"Riding a lone horse to ask the border, passing through the Juyan of the vassal state."
This feeling will truly be remembered for a lifetime😭
