Next, Bian Xiao will sort out the most comprehensive travel strategy of Lanzhou University for everyone!
brief introduction
Lanzhou is the capital of Gansu Province and the central city of northwest China. As a transit city on the northwest tourist line, its traffic status is very important: Dunhuang in the north, Gannan in the south, Xining in the west and Yinchuan in the east, which can be said to be the only place to travel westward.
The Yellow River flows endlessly through Lanzhou from west to east, sandwiched between the north and south mountains, making it a long and narrow city extending from east to west.
As far as tourist attractions are concerned, the most prominent is the "Hundred Miles Yellow River Scenery Line" along the Yellow River: Zhongshan Bridge, Water Car Garden, Statue of the Yellow River Mother, and the night view of Baita Mountain at night, all of which can't be missed when you come to Lanzhou.
The Yellow River water that flows to the distance day and night makes Lanzhou a "temperamental" city. The rolling turbid waves and the sound of waves not only nourish the soil and water in Lanzhou, but also create the bold and rough character of Lanzhou people. Because of the Yellow River, the city has become warmer and richer.
