寧夏旅游介紹作文篇二

相信很多人和我一樣喜歡看電視看電影,所以在我的旅行計劃表里,寧夏的影視一條街肯定是我的必經(jīng)之地。想在那里感受曾經(jīng)在電視里面看到過的鏡頭,想身臨其境的感覺吶樸的氛圍,。位于銀川的鎮(zhèn)北堡西部影視城,被稱為“寧夏之寶”,。所以,我的寧夏之旅第二站——鎮(zhèn)北堡影視城。

西部影視城位于銀川市城區(qū)西北郊區(qū)空曠的荒野上,有兩座古代城堡遺址,這就是聞名國內(nèi)的鎮(zhèn)北堡古城,。該城堡是銀川市文物保護單位,現(xiàn)為西部影視城所在地,。被譽為“中國一西部影視城絕”。

鎮(zhèn)北堡影視城西部地區(qū)最大的影視城,俗話說南有橫店,北有西部影城,名氣很大,。

寧夏鎮(zhèn)北堡西部影城(現(xiàn)通稱鎮(zhèn)北堡西部影城),被譽為“東方好萊塢”,地處寧夏銀川西郊鎮(zhèn)北堡,原址為明清時代的邊防城堡,。在中國眾多的影視城中,西部影城以其古樸、原始,、粗獷,、荒涼,、民間化為特色,是中國三大影視城之一,也是中國西部唯一著名影視城。

在此攝制影片之多,升起明星之多,獲得國際,國內(nèi)影視大獎之多,皆為中國各地影視城之冠,故被譽為“中國一絕”,。

西部影視城已逐步將單純參觀型的旅游點發(fā)展成既有觀光價值,又有為游客制作影視片及餐飲,、購物、陶藝,、騎射等多樣化服務的娛樂型旅游區(qū),。

鎮(zhèn)北堡歷經(jīng)數(shù)百年滄桑,以其雄渾、古樸的風格,成為賀蘭山東麓風景旅游景觀;并以它那特有的神秘韻味,引起了中國許多著名電影藝術(shù)家的濃厚興趣,被藝術(shù)家們稱贊為“神秘的寶地,。

在被譽為“東方好萊塢”的寧夏西部影視城,自1993年成立以來,已接待國內(nèi)外攝制組近100家,主要影片有《大話西游》,、《新龍門客棧》,、《雙旗鎮(zhèn)刀客》,、《大旗英雄傳》、《紅河谷》,、《黃河絕戀》,、《越光寶盒》、《刺陵》等,現(xiàn)在,鎮(zhèn)北堡已成為中國西部題材和古代題材的電影電視最佳外景拍攝基地,。

游歷完整個影視城后終于明白,為什么寧夏人民稱它為寧夏之寶,。因為作為一個外鄉(xiāng)人的我,也早已被它深深吸引。

寧夏旅游介紹作文篇三

各位游客：

在銀川市的西北部,，有一座雄偉峻峭的山脈,，它峰巒起伏，裝入一批奔騰的駿馬,，由東北向西南馳騁于銀川平原和阿拉善高原之間,，這就是著名的賀蘭山。

“賀蘭”一詞來自于蒙古語,，是駿馬的意思,。賀蘭山又稱阿拉善山，位于寧夏回族自治區(qū)和內(nèi)蒙古自治區(qū)阿拉善盟之間,，是寧夏和內(nèi)蒙古的分界線,。山脈呈南北走向綿延250余公里，東西寬20—40公里,，最寬處60公里,，在浩瀚沙漠中拔地而起，北接烏蘭布和沙漠,，南連衛(wèi)寧北山,，西傍騰格里沙漠，東臨銀川平原,，儼然是銀川平原的一道天然屏障,。

整座賀蘭山又大小山峰46個,，較大的山口38個。賀蘭山平均海拔在20xx米以上,，“賀蘭之山五百里,，極目長空高插天”，就是贊美最高峰敖包疙瘩的,，其海拔3556米,，比我國著名的五岳都要高得多。敖包疙瘩,，是蒙古族人在賀蘭山巔的最高處，用石頭堆起的一個“敖包”,，是他們祭神的地方,。他是賀蘭山頂峰的標志。賀蘭山主峰也就以此為名,。

賀蘭山是我國一條重要的自然地理分界線,，對銀川平原發(fā)展成為“塞北江南”有著顯赫功勞。它不但是我國河流外流域內(nèi)流區(qū)的分水嶺,，也是季風氣候和非季風氣候的分界線,。山勢的阻擋，既削弱了西北高寒氣流的東襲,，阻止了潮濕的東南季風西進,，又遏制了騰格里沙漠的東移，東西兩側(cè)的氣候差異頗大,。賀蘭山還是我國草原與荒漠的分界線,，東部為半農(nóng)半牧區(qū)，西部為純牧區(qū),。

賀蘭山由于地理位置的特殊性,，歷來滿布刀光劍影。它地處我國農(nóng)耕民族和游牧民族的交接地帶,，民族遷移十分頻繁,，在歷史上是游牧民族通往中原地帶的重要屏障，被譽為“朔方之保障,，沙漠之咽喉”,。眾多的谷口平時是貿(mào)易交通要道，戰(zhàn)時就是兵家必爭之地,。唐代詩人王維有詩寫道：“賀蘭山下陣如云,，羽榭交馳日夕聞?！币浴瓣嚾缭啤?、“羽榭交馳”形象描繪了激烈的戰(zhàn)爭場面,。岳飛《滿江紅》“架長車，踏破賀蘭山闕”的名句,，也曾激勵過眾多熱血男兒奔赴沙場,，報效國家!

賀蘭山的動植物和地下礦藏資源十分豐富。植物種類約有670種,，其中不少為賀蘭山特有的種類,，如賀蘭山西花紫堇、賀蘭山翠雀花,、賀蘭山丁香,、賀蘭山棘豆和賀蘭山麥瓶草等。此外還有云杉,、油松以及山杏,、山桃等果木和灌木，是寧夏三大林區(qū)之一,。

賀蘭山的野生動物有170余種,，其中藍馬雞、馬鹿,、麝,、盤羊、猞猁,、斑羚,、灰鶴等為國家重點保護的野生動物。藍馬雞為我國特有鳥類,，在寧夏僅分布于賀蘭山,，1983年被定為寧夏區(qū)鳥。山下有豐富的煤炭,、錳,、鐵等礦產(chǎn)資源，山中還盛產(chǎn)賀蘭石,，是制作勢頭工藝品的名貴原材料,。

賀蘭山歷史悠久，鐘靈毓秀,，其境內(nèi)有許多引人入勝的風景游覽點,，如避暑勝地小滾鐘口風景區(qū)，全國重點文物保護單位賀蘭山巖畫,，以及具有很高文物價值的西夏古塔——拜寺口雙塔等等,。游客們可以從中盡情領略這座古老山脈自然、歷史和人文的風韻之美,，一定會回味無窮,。

下面請大家隨我從蘇峪口北側(cè)進山,，前往參觀具有“游牧民族藝術(shù)畫廊”之稱的賀蘭山巖畫。

游客們,，賀蘭山巖畫記錄了賀蘭山一帶遠古游牧民族的生活,，在北至石嘴山，南至中衛(wèi)的250多公里的十多個山口,，分布著1000多幅巖畫,，單個圖案超過2萬個。賀蘭山口就是有著眾多巖畫的山口之一,。

從蘇峪口往北走約5000米,，就到了賀蘭口。大家看,，在溝谷兩岸綿延600多米的山巖石壁上分布著賀蘭山巖畫300多幅,，巖畫題材廣泛，大至表現(xiàn)日月宇宙,，小至描畫動物足蹄，并有狩獵,、放牧,、舞蹈的場面，巖畫藝術(shù)造型粗獷奔放,，構(gòu)圖樸實,，具有獨特的意境和藝術(shù)價值。其中數(shù)量最多的是各種各樣的人面形,。許多人面形畫面簡單,，多數(shù)有眉毛、鼻子和嘴,，而偏偏缺少一對眼睛,，這可能與作畫民族的習俗和信仰有關。還有一個耐人尋味的有趣現(xiàn)象,，即人面形中有似一個站立人的輪廓,，雙臂彎曲，兩腳叉開,，腰佩長刀,，表現(xiàn)了一化身圖騰的巫覡為中心的造型形象，這種獨特的崇拜和敬仰,，是其它巖畫所少有的,。

人面形巖畫中有的人首長著犄角，有的插著羽毛,，這些可能是表現(xiàn)狩獵時的偽裝;有的還帶著尖型和圓頂帽,。表現(xiàn)女性的巖畫,，有的戴著頭飾，有地挽著發(fā)髻,，風姿秀逸,，楚楚動人，再現(xiàn)了幾千年前古代婦女對美的追求,。還有一些表現(xiàn)生活的歡樂和情趣,，或大耳高鼻滿臉長毛，或嘴里銜著骨頭,，可能是表現(xiàn)人民在歡慶狩獵豐收時跳舞的情景,。另外，還有多種多樣的動物巖畫,，有奔跑的鹿,，有雙較突出的巖羊，有風馳揚鬃的駿馬,，還有搖尾巴的狗以及飛禽走獸,，各個形象逼真，栩栩如生,。

據(jù)考證,，賀蘭山巖畫不是一個時期一個民族的作品，其前后延續(xù)時間可能達20xx年之久,，在賀蘭山生活的諸多古代民族前后相繼,，共同完成了這一藝術(shù)畫庫。巖畫是他們表達情感,、愿望,、信仰的“藝術(shù)心態(tài)錄”。巖畫的創(chuàng)作,，大致可分為兩個時期：一是先秦至漢時,，匈奴游牧部落所作;二是五代至西夏建國之初，黨項族游牧民族所作,。他們在狩獵與勞作之余,，用這種方式表達他們的思想感情和生活習俗，展現(xiàn)了豐富的想象力和無窮的創(chuàng)造力,。如今,，這些石頭的史書已成為寶貴的藝術(shù)文化遺產(chǎn)。

各位游客,，賀蘭口巖畫的鐫刻,，有些是先鑿后磨，線條光滑;有些是先勾輪廓，在加深線條,。藝術(shù)表現(xiàn)手法古樸稚拙,，向兒童筆下的形象。即刻畫其所見,，有直抒其所想,，流露出自然與粗獷的神秘魅力。百聞不如一見,，今日之行,，想必大家一定受益匪淺。

寧夏旅游介紹作文篇四

寧夏回族自治區(qū)簡稱寧,，位于祖國西北部的黃河中上游地區(qū),，地處北緯35°14’～39°23’、東經(jīng)104°17’～107°39’之間,。東鄰陜西省,，西部與北部接內(nèi)蒙古自治區(qū)，南部與甘肅省相連,，總面積6.64萬平方公里,。地形南北狹長，地勢南高北低,，自北向南為賀蘭山地,、寧夏平原、六盤山地,。寧夏南北相距456公里，東西相距約250公里,。寧夏地處黃土高原與內(nèi)蒙古高原的過渡地帶,，從地貌類型看，南部以流水侵蝕的黃土地貌為主,，中部和北部以干旱剝蝕,、風蝕地貌為主,。境內(nèi)有較為高峻的山地和廣泛分布的丘陵,，也有由于地層斷陷又經(jīng)黃河沖積而成的沖積平原，還有臺地和沙丘,。地表形態(tài)復雜多樣,。據(jù)20xx年初統(tǒng)計資料顯示，寧夏地形中丘陵占38%,，平原占26.8%,，山地占15.8%，臺地占17.6%，沙漠占1.8%,。平均海拔為1090-20xx米,。賀蘭山是寧夏平原的天然屏障，主峰敖包圪垯海拔3556米,。黃河從中北部穿越12個市縣,，境內(nèi)流程397公里。

寧夏地處內(nèi)陸,，屬溫帶大陸性半干旱氣候,。跨東部季風區(qū)和西北干旱區(qū),，西南靠近青藏高寒區(qū),，大致處在我國三大自然區(qū)的交匯、過渡地帶,。年平均氣溫為5℃～9℃,，晝夜溫差大。年降水量一般為200～600毫米,。全年日照達3000小時,，無霜期170天左右，是中國日照和太陽輻射最充足的地區(qū)之一,。

寧夏是中華遠古文明的發(fā)祥地之一,。寧夏靈武水洞溝舊石器時代晚期人類活動遺址和出土文物表明，早在3萬年前就有人類在這里繁衍生息,。

春秋戰(zhàn)國時期,，境內(nèi)就開始修筑聞名世界的長城。秦始皇統(tǒng)一中國后,，派兵在寧夏屯墾,，開始了引黃河水灌溉的歷史，到漢代(前206～220),，這里農(nóng)耕經(jīng)濟已相當繁榮,。唐代天寶十四載(755)爆發(fā)了“安史之亂”，太子李亨進入寧夏,，在靈武登基稱帝,，史稱唐肅宗。當時,，寧夏已成為中國東西交通貿(mào)易的重要通道之一,。北宋寶元元年(1038)，黨項族首領李元昊以寧夏為中心建立了大夏國,，史稱西夏,，定都興慶府(今銀川市)。蒙古滅西夏后，于元至元二十四年(1287)設寧夏府路,，始有“寧夏”地名,。明設寧夏衛(wèi)。清設寧夏府,。民國初年,，寧夏府改為朔方道，1920xx年成立寧夏省,。1949年中華人民共和國成立后,，于1954年撤銷寧夏省。1958年10月25日成立寧夏回族自治區(qū),。

寧夏礦產(chǎn)資源豐富,，農(nóng)業(yè)、能源和旅游優(yōu)勢突出,。全區(qū)有耕地128.8萬公頃,。其中水澆地33.3萬多公頃。有待開發(fā)的宜農(nóng)荒地66萬余公頃,，其中可開發(fā)水產(chǎn)養(yǎng)殖的荒灘13.3萬公頃,、荒水面積5.6萬公頃，有草場300萬公頃,。已發(fā)現(xiàn)的礦產(chǎn)資源有50多種,，人均自然資源潛在價值為全國平均價值的163.5%，居全國第五位,。尤其是非金屬礦產(chǎn)資源豐富,，主要有煤炭、石膏,、石油,、天然氣等。石膏蘊藏量居全國第一,。全區(qū)近三分之一的土地下蘊藏有豐富的煤炭資源,，探明儲量300多億噸,，居全國第五位,。僅靈武煤田探明儲量就達270多億噸，相當于中國東北地區(qū)探明儲量的總和,。全國十大煤種,，寧夏就有9種。世界著名的優(yōu)質(zhì)無煙煤太西煤,，年出口量達100萬噸,。地跨寧夏的陜甘寧盆地天然氣田，已探明儲量20xx多億立方米，是世界特級大氣田,。

自治區(qū)下轄銀川,、石嘴山、吳忠,、固原,、中衛(wèi)5個地級市，興慶,、金鳳,、西夏、大武口,、惠農(nóng),、原州6個市轄區(qū)，靈武,、青銅峽2個縣級市,，永寧、賀蘭,、平羅,、同心、鹽池,、中寧,、海原、涇源,、西吉,、隆德、彭陽11個縣和紅寺堡開發(fā)區(qū)(縣級移民開發(fā)區(qū)),，首府銀川市,。

寧夏有回、漢等35個民族,，20xx年末總?cè)丝?03.73萬人,，其中漢族377.42萬人、回族206.49萬人,。寧夏是我國最大的回族聚居區(qū),，回族群眾信仰伊斯蘭教。

中國回族形成于元代,。關于回族的來源可以上溯到公元七世紀中葉,，那時就有阿拉伯和波斯商人到中國經(jīng)商和留居。元代大批中亞人,、波斯人和阿拉伯人來到中國,，由于通婚和社會經(jīng)濟關系,，與漢、維吾爾,、蒙古等族在長期相處的過程中形成回回民族,。早在宋代，就有信仰伊斯蘭教的波斯人在寧夏經(jīng)商定居,。元代大批中亞阿拉伯的穆斯林與蒙古人一起,，遷今寧夏屯墾戍邊。元末明初回族逐漸形成,，寧夏回族進入一個相對穩(wěn)定發(fā)展的時期,。

回族人居寧夏，最早可追溯到唐末,。到北宋,、西夏時期，東來的穆斯林多從玉門,、酒泉經(jīng)西夏屬地至中原,。到元代，大批阿拉伯人,、波斯人,、中亞人被征調(diào)或遷徙，以半軍事,、半屯牧的形式生存,。明初，大批回回人以“歸附土達”身份被安插到靈州(今靈武市一帶)及固原各州縣,加之不斷遷徙來寧夏開發(fā),、屯墾的回回人,，形成了許多回族聚居點。到了清乾隆年間,，“寧夏至平?jīng)銮Ю?，盡系回莊”，寧夏回族人口劇增,。至同治年間(1862-1874年),，西北回民反清起義遭到殘酷鎮(zhèn)壓，義軍及眷屬被遷趕到偏僻地區(qū),，其中部分回民移居靈州,、化平(今寧夏涇源縣)、隆德,、海原等縣,。

作為寧夏主體民族的回族,，信仰伊斯蘭教,。在寧夏回族聚居地區(qū),，建有不同建筑形式和不同規(guī)模的清真寺3000多座，有阿訇約4000名,?；刈迥滤沽秩罕娨话阈欧钗屙棥肮φn”即：念、禮,、齋,、課、朝,?；刈宓膫鹘y(tǒng)節(jié)日有開齋節(jié)、古爾邦節(jié)(又稱宰牲節(jié))和圣紀節(jié)三大節(jié)日,。自治區(qū)和各市,、縣建有各級宗教社會團體即伊斯蘭教協(xié)會，管理自己的宗教生活,。自治區(qū)在銀川市開辦了寧夏伊斯蘭經(jīng)學院,，在同心縣開辦了同心阿拉伯語專修學校，幫助穆斯林群眾培養(yǎng)了大批有宗教學識的人才,。除伊斯蘭教外,，寧夏還有群眾信仰、佛教,、天主教,、基督教、道教,。自治區(qū)人民政府對各種宗教一視同仁,，群眾正常的宗教活動受到保護，各種宗教人士在寧夏長期和睦相處,。

寧夏回族在衣著,、飲食、起居衛(wèi)生,、婚嫁,、喪葬等方面形成了獨具特色的風俗習慣?；刈迥行远枷矚g戴白色的小圓帽,，穿黑色的馬甲?；刈鍕D女還喜歡戴蓋頭,，戴金銀耳環(huán)、戒指,、手鐲等,?；刈逄貏e講究衛(wèi)生，室內(nèi)外清潔整齊,，灶具潔凈,。平時洗手、洗臉多用湯瓶,，沐浴用吊罐,。
