The most photogenic place in Yinchuan, also the top choice for watching the sunset
The grand square reminiscent of an ancient Roman amphitheater, facing the shimmering lake and the majestic Helan Mountain range
The sight of hundreds of people sitting on the steps watching the sunset is super romantic!

📍Ziqiang Alley
Every city has its own signature walls and graffiti streets
Starting from Ziqiang Alley, you can take a citywalk
A two to three-kilometer distance can be covered on foot, passing Chengtian Temple Pagoda, Drum Tower, Ningyuan Garden, and Yuhuang Pavilion

📍Winery
At the foot of Helan Mountain, the alluvial fan is known as the 'Bordeaux of the East'
There are many wineries here with different styles, rivaling the grandeur of European estates

📍Chengtian Temple Pagoda
One of the three great Buddhist holy sites of the Western Xia
It is the king of ancient pagodas that still exist from the Western Xia period

The first Qing Dynasty-style ancient garden in Ningxia
It's not large in scale, but it's a great place for local residents to relax daily
