Xiangshawan, Inner Mongolia





Top 10 Desert Tourist Zones in China, NO.9 - Xiangshawan, Inner Mongolia

Xiangshawan means the crying desert in Chinese. When sand is sliding down from the top of a sand dune, it sounds like the sand is crying. For thousands of years, nobody can explain why this happens, but lots of stories generated from this phenomenon. 

The Mongolian are willing to believe that Genghis Khan is blessing them via the crying sand. Enormous tourists travel to Xiangshawan to explore the truth.
