I am not one who is easily enticed by tout, more so in China where reports of cheats are rampant. It was just another day when taxi drivers surrounded me as i was waiting for the bus to 沙坡头。 Despite my continuous silence and walking away, there was one persistent driver who I couldn’t shake off. Maybe it was his sincerity, or his patience, my sixth sense brought me up his taxi for the day. This was the best decision of the trip.
My adventure begins.
He first brought me to take this unique boat. What does the float looks like?
Suckling pig? Close to that. This is actually dried pig skin. Pig can’t fly, but they can float.

Salt Pool.
Seeing is believing.
Actual Venue for filming of 刺陵
Venturing at the edge of the Desert, I came across this pool. This site was chosen for its “wetland” properties.
The 冲浪车 – roller coaster of the desert.
Sliding down the desert.
Moving away from the main desert site, the driver brought me to his friend who rears camel. We went deep into Tengali Desert to watch the sun set on the desert. Breathtaking scenery.
The friendship with the owner fostered during the four hours led to an even more exciting night……
