It is the only deciduous tall tree that can form a forest in the desert, and it is famous for its tenacious vitality. It is said that Populus euphratica "lives for a thousand years without dying, dies for a thousand years without falling, and falls for a thousand years without decay". The legend of life for three thousand years has given Populus euphratica the reputation of "desert god tree". Time flows, life turns, only Populus euphratica can keep pace with time and engrave eternity. Most of the Populus euphratica in the world grow in China, and the Populus euphratica forests in China are mostly distributed in the desert and Gobi areas of the northwest, with the most famous being the Luntai Populus euphratica forest in Xinjiang and the Ejina Populus euphratica forest in Inner Mongolia. Populus euphratica is the spiritual totem of Ejina Banner. Ejina, located in the west of Alxa League, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, is located at the junction of the Mongolian Plateau and the Altai Mountains. It is the largest and least populous banner in Inner Mongolia. The desert and Gobi are widely distributed here, and most areas are not suitable for human habitation, so the population is sparse, but this is the home of Populus euphratica. Ejina Banner currently has 450,000 mu of natural Populus euphratica forest, which is one of the only three remaining Populus euphratica forests in the world. Ejina Populus euphratica forest scenic area is a famous national nature reserve and an important part of Alxa Desert World Geopark. Every year at the end of September and early October, the Ejina Populus euphratica forest will turn into a golden dreamland, attracting many tourists and photography enthusiasts to go there to enjoy the charming autumn colors. The Populus euphratica forest scenic area is very large, and the most recommended are the "Second Bridge Reflection Forest", "Fourth Bridge Hero Forest" and "Seventh Bridge Dream Forest". Among them, the "Seventh Bridge Dream Forest" is the place where Populus euphratica turns yellow the earliest every autumn. The Populus euphratica here is lush and varied, with high ornamental value. Walking on the Seventh Bridge is like being in a charming dream. The "Second Bridge Reflection Forest" is famous for the beautiful reflections of Populus euphratica on both sides of the river, and it is the best place to shoot sunrise and reflections. The "Fourth Bridge Hero Forest" is the most concentrated area of ​​millennium Populus euphratica. The trunks are thick and huge, and the shapes are ingenious. They are like the incarnation of the heroes of the Tuerhute return to the east, carrying the tragic history of the great migration of the nation. This is also the location of Zhang Yimou's "Hero". Populus euphratica, the "immortal legend" in the desert, their existence is not only a manifestation of vitality, but also a symbol of spirit-even if the fate is desolate, "my" will will still burn tenaciously. Time is the wind in the desert, it shapes the shape of Populus euphratica, and also carves the wrinkles on our faces and the memories in our hearts. But Populus euphratica stands on the golden land of Ejina with a posture that will not fall for a thousand years. They are the guardians of time and the witnesses of the years! On the vast land of Alxa, in addition to the famous Ejina Populus euphratica forest, there are too many legends worth exploring and beautiful scenery worth freezing. The desert lonely city and beautiful sunset in the Heicheng·Ruoshui Populus euphratica forest scenic area, the magnificent and magnificent Guangzong Temple, which has a lofty status in the Mongolian and Tibetan Buddhist circles, and the Badain Jaran Desert, which has just been included in the World Heritage List this year and has the reputation of "China's most beautiful desert", are all ideal tourist destinations for the National Day holiday and this autumn. Three thousand years of waiting, three thousand years of life legend, just waiting for your arrival!

Pay attention to weather changes. The yellow leaf period of the Ejina Populus euphratica forest is generally from September 15 to October 20, with some fluctuations depending on the weather. The leaves at Qidao Bridge turn yellow around September 15, fully yellow around October 7, and golden around October 11. The leaves at Bridges 1 to 4 turn yellow about 5 days later than Qidao Bridge, starting around September 30, fully yellow around October 11, and golden around October 15. The leaves at Jinta Populus euphratica forest start turning yellow around October 3, fully yellow around October 15, and golden around October 21. Bring warm clothes, as it gets very cold at night in Ejina. Prepare mosquito repellent spray, masks, and sleeves, as there are many mosquitoes when watching the sunrise at Juyan Lake. The duty-free shop at Ceke Port is not open, and the surrounding specialty shops are expensive and not authentic. Self-driving is not recommended. The G7 Chuansha Highway in Inner Mongolia has many crosswinds and camels on the road, which can be dangerous. Some sections in Gansu have many speed checks and large vehicles, making it difficult to time your trip to see the sunrise and sunset. It is recommended to join a local private tour group, which saves time, effort, and money. Avoid shopping tours and large bus tours, as they are rushed, tiring, and you won't enjoy the attractions. Bring sunscreen and moisturizing skincare products, as the climate in Ejina is dry. The scenic area of the Ejina Populus euphratica forest from Bridges 1 to 8 takes a long time to visit. It is recommended to bring some water and snacks, as things are expensive inside the scenic area. There is no need to watch the sunrise and sunset at every scenic spot. The most beautiful sunrise is at Juyan Lake, and the most beautiful sunset is at the Ghost Forest. Just go to these two places to watch.

There is a color called "Ejina's Autumn" Every autumn, it turns golden here The most beautiful season of the Populus euphratica forest, with only 21 days of viewing period a year If it is windy and rainy, the time will be shorter No wonder "National Geographic" rated it as one of the must-visit places in a lifetime - 📍Ejina Banner, Alxa League, Inner Mongolia ✈️Transportation: ①The plane lands at Jiayuguan Jiuquan Airport, rent a car and drive to it, about 400 kilometers and about 5 hours by car, or you can take a tourist bus ②The plane lands at Alxa Airport, rent a car and drive, take the Inner Mongolia Alxa Ring Road, pass Ejina Banner, the journey is longer, if it is just for the Populus euphratica forest, this plan is not recommended 🍂Viewing period: From the end of September to mid-to-late October every year, generally October 5-15 is the best viewing period (specific conditions depend on the weather and temperature) . ✔️Ejina Populus Euphratica Forest Scenic Area There are 8 small attractions (Yidao Bridge-Badao Bridge), it is recommended to play for 1 day ▪️Tour route: Walk from Yidao Bridge (entrance) to Erdao Bridge, take the ferry from Erdao Bridge to Sida Bridge, take the car from Sida Bridge to Qidao Bridge, take the car from Qidao Bridge to Badao Bridge, and take the car from Badao Bridge to Yidao Bridge (exit) ▪️There are more people on the first, second, and fourth bridges, and it is difficult to take pictures. If you are in a hurry, you can go directly to the Seven Bridges. The forest is large and there are not many tourists. It is easier to take pictures. The Eight Bridges are Badain Jaran Desert and there are no Populus euphratica forests. You can not go ▪️The golden leaves of the Populus euphratica forest in autumn are beautiful for taking pictures. Both mobile phones and cameras can take pictures. The important thing is to avoid other tourists . 🏠Accommodation: The environment of hotels and guesthouses is average, and the price is more expensive. You need to book in advance. It is understandable to think about it. After all, there are only 20 days of business hours a year, and other seasons are very deserted .

At night, the lights at the second bridge will all be lit up, making it perfect for night photography. Those who like to shoot starry skies and star trails can also stay here at night to capture the Populus Euphratica star trails.
