A National Cultural Industry Demonstration Base, National AAAA-level Tourist Attraction, National Red Tourism Classic Scenic Spot, and one of the New Ten Scenic Spots of Ningxia — Ningxia Chuan Folk Culture Park is located in Najiayi Village, a renowned town in Ningxia with a long historical and cultural heritage.

Fully experience the frontier charm where “orchards flourish at the foot of the Helan Mountains, famed since olden times as a garden in the north”; enjoy panoramic views of the majestic landscape described as “lone smoke in the desert sky, the round sun setting over the long river”; and appreciate from multiple perspectives the bold and unrestrained spirit captured in “the sky is high, the clouds are light, gazing at the wild geese flying south until they’re out of sight. He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true hero.” Ningxia Chuan — what a wonderful place!
Main Entrance Gate, Grand Unity Square, and Fountain Square
With a gentle breeze blowing, the pure white color against the blue sky and clear water forms the main visual theme of Ningxia Chuan Folk Culture Park; geometric and floral-patterned decorations become the most enchanting musical notes. First catching your eye is the 38-meter-high Main Entrance Gate, flanked by a 206-meter-long corridor composed of 40 sets of uniquely shaped architectural reliefs. The grand and majestic atmosphere and the meticulous attention to detail are perfectly combined here. The square in front of the gate is a performance venue that can accommodate 20,000 people. In summer, it becomes a sea of songs and a world of dance. Behind the gate lies the 6,400-square-meter Fountain Square, with a large 2,100-square-meter mirror-like pool at its center, equipped with a musical fountain. When still, the pool acts like a giant mirror, reflecting the blue sky, white clouds, and buildings in stunning beauty; when active, the fountain dances gracefully to the tunes of melodious music, embodying the harmony of “man and nature” with liveliness and elegance.
Golden Ceremonial Hall
Located at the center of the scenic area, the Golden Ceremonial Hall is 38 meters high, 86 meters deep, 62 meters wide, and covers an area of 8,000 square meters, with an overall square layout. The main hall is octagonal, and the interior walls are adorned with hand-painted art, the columns inlaid with cloisonné tiles, and decorated with exquisite patterns — all of which showcase the artisans’ fine craftsmanship and deliver a profound spiritual impact.
Catering Center
The Catering Center of Ningxia Chuan Folk Culture Park features a two-story hall with a buffet restaurant that can accommodate 200 diners, and 11 private rooms of various styles surrounding the waterside pavilion, offering an elegant dining environment. The signature feasts at the Catering Center consist of Ningxia-style specialties and local dishes. Savor the delights of the “garden in the north” such as hand-grabbed lamb, whole roasted lamb, as well as delicate and affordable local snacks like sheep offal stew, cold noodles with gluten, noodle soup with dumplings, flatbread, crushed wheat delicacies, and cold bean jelly — all are essential joys for your travel experience.
