Uhai Lake reversal trip! Unlock the desert + ice lake double surprise for 200 yuan

Who would have thought! After being heartbroken by the Western Grand Canyon yesterday, Uhai Lake instantly maxed out my happiness level today🌊 "Half desert, half city" is not just a gimmick! The original plan was to just circle the lake without entering the scenic spots. The navigation route was all planned: Uhai Lake Bridge → Jinsha Development Co., Ltd. → Uhai Lake Pier No. 1 → Wuda District → Laseng Temple, but halfway I got caught up by a sand dune motorbike stall~ At first, I didn’t dare to drive the sand dune motorbike myself for 100 yuan half an hour, but when the boss lady took us for a ride, she said we could pay extra to enter the scenic area. After bargaining, 200 yuan unlocked a divine experience! Not only did I ride the sand dune motorbike at lightning speed, the boss also drove a tank to take us through the sand. The bumpy ride with endless sand dunes was super thrilling, 100 times more stunning than yesterday’s Grand Canyon! Every snap on the popular road looks cinematic. The lonely dead trees at the filming location of "Uhai" create a full atmosphere, the frozen lake surface glimmers faintly, and the collision of sand and ice is absolutely amazing❄️ Later, we followed the original plan to Wuda District. The scenery was so-so, nothing too surprising. Finally, we rushed to Laseng Temple and hit a snag! The wind was so strong it could blow skinny people away. Climbing halfway up the mountain, I was blown down and had to turn back the same way. Honestly, I don’t recommend going on windy days! 👉🏻Money-saving tips: Navigate directly to Jinsha Development Co., Ltd., negotiate a 200 yuan package with the local boss lady. It includes sand dune motorbike + tank sand crossing + core scenic spot check-ins, much more cost-effective than buying tickets separately. Avoid windy days at Laseng Temple. If you want to visit, choose a windless time and wear anti-slip shoes. Uhai Lake is really worth it! Every snap is a healing picture of desert and lake. This reversal trip was totally worth it~
