Introduction to the attractions of the Ancient Silk Road:

It is located at the southern end of the Yellow River Bridge in Chengguan District, the southern section of Binhe Road. It was created by Long Xuli and carved by Zhu Xiaoxue of Dujiang Sculpture Society in Sichuan on March 9, 1987. The core of the sculpture is a camel from the ancient Silk Road. It is carved from granite and is 6 meters high, 7 meters long and weighs more than 100 tons. It reflects the grandeur of the Silk Road during the prosperous Tang Dynasty. The male camel is loaded with silk and satin, and on it is an elderly man wearing a cloak, with a awning on his right hand looking out. On the right front of the camel, Hu Shang, with deep eyes and swollen beard, is walking backwards holding the rein. A young man behind the camel made a trumpet shape with his right hand to shout for the following camel team. The composition of the sculpture is simple, the whole is dignified, and the momentum is magnificent, giving people a sudden feeling of desolation in the desert.

"Since ancient times, the Yellow River has enriched Ningxia." The Yinchuan plain has crisscrossed channels and is known as the "fortress of the south of the Yangtze River." The beautiful pastoral scenery contrasts with the majestic Helan Mountains, and the charm is extremely extraordinary. Wolfberry, licorice, Helan stone, Tan sheepskin, and Nostoc are known as Ningxia's "Five Treasures". They are red, yellow, blue, white, and black. They are colorful and well-known at home and abroad.
