Helan County, Ningxia, Helan Mountain Rock Painting. "The mountains are many woods, the blue and white look like a barge, and the northern people call it Helan." Helan Mountains stretch more than 200 kilometers from the north to the south, spectacular, cliff valley is steep, and the mountains are looming in the light. Speaking of Helan Mountain, many people know that its rock paintings are famous in the world. The theme, content and expression of rock paintings are very wide, rich in imagination, and can be called a precious national art gallery. In Yinchuan World Rock Painting Museum, I experienced rock painting and imprinted the sun god, and bought a sun god refrigerator sticker at Wenchuang Pavilion to take home.

    The old man tickets are very cheap and cost-effective. When I booked the ticket in advance, my parents only needed to scan the mobile phone to avoid the time to queue up to buy tickets. The rock paintings left in ancient times are perfectly preserved in the scenic area, and I am very lucky to see the rock sheep.

    Helan Mountain Rock Painting scenery, a very good attraction, I thought there were not many people during the Spring Festival holiday, but I unexpectedly found that this place is actually the most tourist place. I have to lament the wisdom of the ancients and leave regrets and precious wealth for future generations.

    I went in June, the scenic spot was not very big, and there were not many people when I went to play. Mainly look at the ancient human records on the rock wall of the production and life scenes such as grazing, hunting, sacrifice, war, entertainment, and exchange.
