Qiyi Glacier is our main event in Jiayuguan. In the early morning, we ate porridge in the morning, took the street lamp, took a taxi to Jiayuguan Station, took the 7529 green leather train, and took the excitement to meet the morning glow, rushing to climb the Qiyi Glacier. It was late at 9:30 when arriving at Jing Tieshan Railway Station. In the train station parking lot, take the bus to pick up the tourist bus to the Qiyi Glacier. The driver and the tour guide began to inform the glacier about the safety of the glacier and the time to get off the mountain. It is especially important to adjust the car people to walk together, not to leave the brigade. Everyone should take care of each other. After the emphasis is over, continue driving to the service center. After 1 hour, everyone will go to the simple bathroom to solve the problem (because there is no restroom in the Qiyi Glacier area), the self-help tourists will buy 161 yuan Qiyi Glacier tickets at the service center, and To sign the death and press the fingerprint. Starting from 3800 meters above sea level, the whole journey (one way) is 4 kilometers. The slope of the first section is not relatively good. The second section is very narrow. If you accidentally slip down the slope; the third section of the road The slope is large and there are many broken stones. I can hardly see the road (the third paragraph listens to the friends who talked about it), and the peak viewing platform is more than 4,300 meters.

This is a road to freedom leading to Jiayuguan! There is such a majestic desert in the northwest! Many years ago it was an important transportation hub for the Silk Road! First sight of this isolated city! Feeling very majestic, like a guardian border general, sacred and inviolable!

Jiayuguan is located in the west of the Hexi Corridor. It is built on the mountain and is high in danger. It is like a fishbone on the west corridor of the Qianli River. On the northern slope of Heishan Gorge, about 8 kilometers north of Jiayuguan City Tower, there is a section of the Great Wall. In order to strengthen the defense of Jiayuguan, the city wall climbed up the mountain. It was a piece of stone wall, which was finished yesterday. Snow and friends climbed up and played a little. Great Wall is suitable for wearing this kind of costume clothes. We specially bought a small piece of Xiaozi, as well as headscarves, hats and other accessories, so that it can make the feeling of Mingmen Longmen Inn.

The first scenic spot of the Great Wall is spectacular, with Jiuquan in the east, desert in the west, Jiayu in the north, Qilian in the south, and the river to the east. At the south end of the mountain, the mountain peaks are white all the year round, reflecting the blue sky, and it feels fresh and picturesque. As the saying goes, "there is a long way to go and the clouds are wet, and the wind is smooth and the forest is dancing." The scenic area is about 3.22 square kilometers. The scenic spot includes the first pier of the Great Wall, the comprehensive service area, the snorkeling snorkeling, the squatting inn, the Tianshou Suspension Bridge, the Drunken Sandy Field sculpture group, and the Chinese Dragon Forest. The first pier of the Great Wall was built in the 18th year of Ming Jiajing (AD 1539) by Li Han, the supervisor of Suzhou Bingdao Road, and 7.5 kilometers away from Guancheng in the north. The pier stands on the cliff nearly 56 meters high near the river. For its ambition, the famous Great Wall expert Mr. Luo Zhewen once had a vivid sigh: "Jiayuguan, the dangerous paintings are difficult, the piers are far away from each other, the Great Wall Road is connected to the mountains, and the arm is hard to climb." On the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty on more than 10,000 Huali, there are countless piers and dense mountains, and the first pier of the Jiayuguan Great Wall echoes the old dragon on the coast of the Bohai Sea in Hebei, and together they build the first and last of the Great Dragon of the Great Wall of China. The reputation of the Chinese nation "Dragon". If the Great Wall is a monument to the Chinese nation, then the first pier of the Great Wall is the place where this monument has risen. Now, the pier is about 10 meters high, and its bottom is irregularly square. The bottom is 14 meters wide. The interior is still square, with a length and width of 6 meters. It is made of loess, and the layer of earthworm is 10-20 cm thick. The inscription on the "First Great Wall of the Great Wall" was inscribed by the late Wei Lu traditional general of the West Road Army, and the writing was elegant and free.

In the Jiayuguan Caohu National Wetland Park in winter, birds fly in the air, walk in the water, walk through the reeds... Lake waves and grasses, rare birds and birds with the dreamy sand rhyme at the foot of the Great Wall, this colorful "picture scroll" from Tiancheng ", is the epitome of the National Wetland Park. Jiayuguan Caohu National Wetland Park is located in the northeast of Jiayuguan City. It is located in the front of the Badain Jaran Desert and the Mengxin Gobi. Natural marsh wetlands and constructed wetlands, including herbs, are formed by the Shulai River, the outcrops and groundwater. Swamp wetlands, shrub marsh wetlands and Kutang wetlands. The unique natural geographical environment has created a landscape of desert, oasis, wetland and lake landscape in the grass lake wetland, such as blue sky and white clouds, morning glow, and moon and moon.

On the side of the cantilever wall, skiing down from the high cliffs is a stimulating and unique experience. There are many local skiers gathered here. Although the trails are very short and not very professional, the skiing friends will not feel disappointed. On the slopes of the snow, there are many recreational activities, such as slip rings, snow tanks, etc., so that people who can not ski can also experience the fun of playing snow.

The Donghu Eco-tourism Area is located in the southern part of Jiayuguan City. It has a rare ecological landscape of the Great Lakes in the northwest. It is particularly fresh and beautiful in the arid zone. With a total area of 1.65 million square meters and a lake area of 650,000 square meters, it is the largest ecological construction project in the history of Jiayuguan City. The lake water comes from the snow water of Qilian Mountain. After artificial diversion, it is injected into three large and small lakes to form three continuous lake areas. The water is transported to Jiayu Industrial Park and Jiugang High-tech Farm through underground pipelines to make this water cycle. Use, really played the role of the lungs of its city. Sit on the sightseeing train in the scenic area. You can go around the lake for a week. Look at the park with lush trees, blooming flowers, fresh air, and even the snowy mountains when the weather is good. There are plastic roads in the park, and many nearby residents come here for a walk. Lake 2 is a dedicated venue for the International Triathlon, and has been held for 12 consecutive International Triathlons. In the East Lake eco-tourism scenic spot, the most conspicuous is the Western Pearl Weather Tower, which looks like a penguin. With a total height of 94.94 meters, the meteorological tower is the highest weather tower in China. The ground floor is the science education area, the second and third floors are leisure areas, and the sightseeing elevators come to the 14th and 15th floors, which overlook the panoramic view of the East Lake. The ball at the top of the dolphins is the weather radar detector of the East Lake. It can monitor the weather conditions within a radius of 200 kilometers and is known as the Super Clair Eye.

Here you can not only visit the wine production line, the storage cellar, but also the fine wines and wine culture. The whole process of the tour was led by a lecturer. Since the wine is in the food industry, don't smoke during the visit, don't throw garbage and spit, and don't shout loudly. Do not touch the oak barrels in the oak barrel area. Do not climb over the fence to enter the oak barrel area. You can take pictures throughout the entire process.

The first high-end Merno dry red on the right hand side, the second is the Cabernet Sauvignon red, the third is the purple liqueur, the fourth is the ice white wine, and the fifth is the 48-degree strong grape. White wine flames (similar to vodka). What impressed me the most was the collection of Cabernet Sauvignon and ice white wine.

There are more than 7,000 oak barrels placed in a single layer, which can store 1600 tons of wine. Opening time: 9
