Ancient Ferry of the Yellow River

Located on the east bank of the Yellow River, more than thirty miles east of Yinchuan City. The surging Yellow River passes through Ningxia for over 390 kilometers, leaving behind several ancient ferries here, among which the 'Hengcheng Ancient Ferry' is the most famous. From here, looking east from a high point, one sees the vast expanse of yellow sands, while looking west across the river, one sees endless green fields. Experts have verified that the timeless classic 'A solitary smoke rises straight in the desert, the long river sets the round sun' was born here. The ancient ferry is a national AAAA-level tourist attraction, a national wetland park, and one of the eight scenic spots of Ningxia during the Ming and Qing dynasties. Here, you can visit the ancient ferry crossing where Emperor Kangxi crossed the Yellow River, the Crescent Lake left by Wang Zhaojun's journey to the frontier for marriage... Here you can admire the desert scenery and the ancient charm of the Yellow River, experiencing the magnificent and spectacular 'Desert Yellow River, Jiangnan of the Northern Frontier'...
