From October 19 to 21, 2012, the China International Camping Congress was held at the Lop Nur People’s Village Scenic Area in Yuli County, Xinjiang.

Yuli, known as Luobuzhuoer in the Uyghur language, lies against the Tianshan Mountains to the north, faces the Taklamakan Desert to the south, and is traversed by the Tarim River–Peacock River basin in the central area.
In the heart of the Lop Nur desert, there live some “aboriginal people.” They make their homes around desert lakes, neither herding nor farming, but living on fish, leading a life akin to a desert Shangri-La. Generation after generation has “built huts in the desert and made a living by fishing.” They have no written language, no officials, no cities—just a unique tribal way of life. They are their own masters. These are the Lop Nur people.

The ancient ruins of the Lop Nur people—the Lop Nur People’s Village—are located more than 30 kilometers from Yuli County. It lies east of sandy hills and north of the Weigan River. The scenery here is picturesque. Towering and lush populus euphratica trees surround the area, while lakes are scattered like stars and rivers wind gracefully. Blue sky meets green water, and yellow sand mountains stand majestically. Is it a desolate Gobi or a gentle water town? Who can really say?

On October 19, 2012, beside the towering sandy hills of the Lop Nur People’s Village, colorful tents of various kinds blossomed one after another like mushrooms after rain by the “Akeqi” River. This officially kicked off the 2012 China International Camping Congress.

The golden roasted whole lamb emitted an enticing aroma, as if welcoming outdoor enthusiasts from all over.

Many participants in the camping event were also keen to play with the Ezon mountaineering watches. They spoke highly of the watches’ functions and stylish designs.

Some young couples traveling together even took photos in front of the Ezon mountaineering watch promotional booth. May this powerful Ezon mountaineering watch record the wonderful moments they spent together in the Lop Nur People’s Village.

A vegetarian traveler from Taiwan also signed the banner as a keepsake, expressing his appreciation and admiration for the domestic mountaineering watch brand.

The small exhibition booth and its diverse signatures reflect the strong support of camping enthusiasts for the Ezon mountaineering watch.

The Ezon mountaineering watch will always be a friend to outdoor enthusiasts.

The 2012 China International Camping Congress also featured many competitive events such as sports competitions and leisure contests.

The Ezon mountaineering watch was awarded as a prize for some of the more challenging competitive events, presented to the first-place winners.

By the lakeside and on the sandy hills, as night fell, the twinkling campfires and lights created a beautiful nocturnal scene.

During the event, some campers had the pleasure of meeting scientist Abulimiti (third from the left) from the Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography, Chinese Academy of Sciences, who also showed great interest in the Ezon mountaineering watch and took a photo with the promotional banner.

After three days of camping activities, the International Camping Congress finally drew to a close amid the heartfelt farewells of the campers.

Goodbye, China International Camping Congress; goodbye, outdoor enthusiasts. The Ezon mountaineering watch will continue to support you as always.
