  • Recreate the essence of Western Xia culture and immerse yourself in the charm of this mysterious dynasty.

  Attraction Introduction

  The Western Xia Folk Culture Park is a key investment-attracting project in the Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region. It is also another major cultural tourism development by Hangzhou Aohai Holding Co., Ltd. in Yinchuan following the construction of Mingcui Chun Tian, Aohai Qinghefang, and Aohai Lanting. This top-tier cultural tourism project integrates cultural tourism and leisure vacation. Located in Xixia District, Yinchuan, it borders the Xigan Canal to the east, the Air Force Railway to the south, National Highway 110 to the west, and Beijing West Road to the north. With convenient transportation and beautiful surroundings, it forms a golden tourism belt alongside attractions such as the Western Xia Mausoleums, Zhenbeibao Western Film Studios, Helan Mountain Scenic Area, and Gunzhongkou Scenic Area. It stands out as a distinctive highlight within the eastern foothills of the Helan Mountain cultural tourism belt and the Greater Yinchuan Tourism Circle.

  Covering an area of over 2,500 acres, including more than 300 acres of water surface, the park integrates five major functions: cultural exhibition, immersive experience, specialty vacation, leisure sports, and ecological planting. Centered around a panoramic display of Western Xia culture and blending culture with tourism, the park takes inspiration from the eight ancient tribal clans of the Western Xia Kingdom (Tuoba, Miquin, Fangdang, Yeli, Pochao, Wangli, Feiting, and Xifeng) as prototypes for its eight fortress villages. Through five themed zones — Dreaming Back to Western Xia, Strategy in Western Xia, Conquest in Western Xia, Modern Western Xia, and Tasting Western Xia — the park combines ancient Western Xia elements such as farming, printing, pottery, nomadic life, military, and brewing, with modern amenities like five-star hotels, lakeside resort villas, ski (grass) slopes, golf experiences, leisure fishing, adventure training, and children’s entertainment. Enhanced by a food street offering local flavors and a camping zone, it aspires to become a national 5A-level tourist attraction.

  The architecture within the park embodies the essence of Western Xia design, featuring grand imperial complexes as well as serene wooden cottages and thatched huts nestled by the lake and forest. Visitors can appreciate the exquisite artistry of Western Xia architecture. The park’s gardens are exquisitely landscaped with picturesque scenery, showcasing both the vast grasslands where “the wind blows low and cattle and sheep appear” and the poetic charm of Jiangnan-style bridges and flowing streams. Pavilions and towers dot the landscape, accompanied by birdsong and floral fragrance, making it an ideal destination for sightseeing.

  The Western Xia Folk Culture Park is currently the largest and most expansive theme park providing a comprehensive showcase of the mysterious Western Xia Dynasty. It holds unparalleled advantages in terms of geographic location, scale, and content. The plan is to establish it as a nationally renowned tourist attraction within three years and make it a flagship destination for tourism in Ningxia — a must-visit spot for domestic travelers coming to the region.
