Travel tips:
1️⃣Food: Don't miss the lamb skewers in Alxa. They have a unique flavor that will leave you wanting more.🍖 The noodles in Zhangye and Jiayuguan are also worth trying.😋
2️⃣Specialty prices: We recommend buying local specialty gifts, such as camel hair handicrafts in Alxa💍, fennel powder in Zhangye, and red horse hooves in Jiayuguan.😊 Prices are similar, but night markets or stalls are usually cheaper.😉
3️⃣February weather: These places are still in winter in February❄, with large temperature differences, especially in the desert. You may need to prepare a thick down jacket and hat to keep warm.⛄
