🏨 Four must-stay wild luxury hotels in Zhongwei
The pinnacle of family hotels, shaped like a huge star with wooden cabins surrounding it like a cluster of stars. Step outside to enjoy the desert star river and sea of sand sunrise.
Like a diamond necklace decorating the vast desert. Rooms have panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows, so you can watch the desert sunrise and sunset from bed, and gaze at the brilliant starry sky at night.
River Hostel
Feels like being in Northwest Morocco, a must-visit for moms who love photography. The hostel also has exquisite coffee shops, bookstores, and tea rooms, perfect for taking stunning photos.
The hotel is built with rammed earth walls, blending into the desert from afar, resembling the legendary Loulan Ancient City, very cozy.
