Crescent Moon Spring

The Crescent Moon Spring has its name due to its crescent moon shape. Its water tastes fresh and sweet and its color is light blue. However, what makes it famous is that it has surprisingly survived in the desert for thousands of years. Year after year, it has been endangered by the sand storms but until now, it is still full of rippling water. Therefore, it is regarded as one of the wonders in China.

It is surrounded by the Mingsha Mountain, a giant sand dune, which is famous for the echoing sounds the wind makes when blowing over the dunes. Here, you may enjoy the rare view where an oasis meets the desert and you can also get the fun from sand adventure. Camel riding and dune surfing will both be your unforgettable experience.
