M44***96Zhongwei Desert Star Hotel offers a dreamlike desert journey. Location & Environment: Located on the edge of the Tengger Desert, the hotel's unique star-shaped architecture stands out prominently in the desert, like a dazzling star. My sand-view room featured floor-to-ceiling windows and a terrace, offering breathtaking views of the desert sunrise and sunset. The toiletries were L'Occitane, of high quality. Dining Experience: The hotel's buffet offered a wide variety of dishes, including Chinese and Western cuisine. The stewed lamb chops were particularly memorable for their tender and juicy flavor. However, some dishes could be improved, and overall, the dining experience could be better. Activities Experience: The hotel offers a wealth of activities, including professional stargazing tours. Far from light pollution in the desert, you can clearly see the Milky Way and countless stars, with professional explanations provided by staff – a truly awe-inspiring experience. There are also family-friendly activities such as desert hiking and handicrafts, perfect for families with children. Service Experience: The staff were warm and friendly, providing attentive service from the initial reception at the scenic area entrance to after check-in. They provide a detailed activity schedule and map upon check-in, and even give you complimentary tickets to the Shapotou Scenic Area; it's a very thoughtful touch. ↓

M23***10The desert is also a witness to history. Ancient caravans once left their mark on this land, leaving behind the sound of camel bells. Here, the exchange between Eastern and Western civilizations quietly took place. The ruins of ancient cities, half-buried by the wind and sand, silently tell of past glories and declines, inspiring a reverie, as if one can hear the echoes of history resonating in the vast desert. Every desert journey is a spiritual revelation. Here, people learn to revere nature, understand the fragility and resilience of life, and cherish everything they encounter. The desert, in its own unique way, teaches us resilience, optimism, and hope. In this seemingly desolate land, life, in its most primitive form, displays its indomitable strength, reminding us that no matter how harsh the environment, life can always flourish, and hope always awaits. The desert, this mysterious and enchanting land, with its endless winds and sands, brilliant starry skies, tenacious life, and rich historical stories, attracts countless travelers to explore and find their own personal touch. Here, everyone can find their own answers about life, courage and dreams.
