Located in Uxin Banner, Ordos, the Salawusu Tourism Area consists of two parts – the Salawusu Civilization site (known as the Ordos Man site) and the Batuwan scenic area.  

The Salawusu Civilization natural geological museum sits on the location of the discovery of human remains from the Palaeolithic Age, which dates from 2.5 million years ago to 9,600 BC. The site is also home to the largest desert valley in Asia. 

Batuwan scenic area features a 230-sq-km reservoir, which boasts one of the world’s purest water supplies, the reservoir mostly being sourced from a desert spring. 

Salawusu Tourist Area was listed as a national 4A-grade scenic spot in 2013.
