Located on the south side of Zhang County, Dingxi City, Gansu Province, Zhayang Mountain is a local natural scenic spot in Zhang County. Zhayang Mountain is steep and has deep canyons. It is a good place for climbing and visiting canyons. There are also water flows, trees, etc., and the environment is beautiful. It is a rare landscape in the arid northwest region. Coming to Zhayang Mountain for tourism, it is said to be climbing, but in fact it is more about visiting the canyon. The peak of Zhayang Mountain is on the south side, and the entrance to the Attraction is on the north side. There are two canyons in the Attraction, Dongxi and Xixi, which can lead to the depths. At present, the main landscape is concentrated in the Xixi canyon. The canyon is about 7.5 kilometers long. The first half is a well-repaired stone step road, etc., all the way to the ladder landscape. The back is mainly natural dirt roads. You can hike in the canyon. If you don't have enough physical strength, you can also ride a horse. There are many locals on the roadside who rent horses. Generally, you only play in Xixi for about 3-4 hours. If you have enough time, you can also visit the mountaintop area and Dongxi Canyon together, which takes about 1 day. Not far from the Attraction, there are some resorts and farmhouses run by locals where you can choose to stay.Zhang County · 24km from downtown

Located in Miao'er Lane, Yixin Village, Nan'an Township, Longxi County, Li Family Dragon Palace was originally an ancestral shrine for the Li clan worldwide to honor their ancestors and strengthen family bonds. It became famous globally because Emperor Taizong of Tang personally inscribed the name "Li Family Dragon Palace." It is one of the important carriers and landmark buildings for studying the cultural heritage and relics of the Li clan in Longxi. In the 5th year of the Shunzhi reign of the Qing Dynasty, Li Family Dragon Palace was destroyed by war, leaving only the "Beitian Diyi Men" archway. It was rebuilt in the 1st year of the Kangxi reign. When Lü Peigao served as magistrate in the 37th year of the Kangxi reign, he hung a vertical plaque inscribed with "Yang Mi Gao" on the "Beitian Diyi Men." In the 5th year of the Tongzhi reign, Longxi City fell, and Li Family Dragon Palace suffered another disaster. It was renovated and expanded during the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China. Although its scale was far from its former glory, it was still nestled among mountains and waters, with staggered halls and pavilions, offering a unique charm. In September 2003, Li Family Dragon Palace officially opened to visitors. It has since hosted over 80 Li clan organizations from home and abroad, as well as Li clan organizations from 29 provinces, municipalities, and autonomous regions across China, along with Li clan members and tourists from China and abroad who came to Longxi to sightsee and trace their roots. In 2006, Li Family Dragon Palace was successively named "Dingxi Patriotism Education Base" and "Gansu Patriotism Education Base" by the Dingxi Municipal Committee and the Gansu Provincial Committee, respectively. In 2011, the People's Government of Gansu Province declared Li Family Dragon Palace a provincial-level cultural relic protection unit. In 2013, Li Family Dragon Palace became one of the 11 core scenic spots of the Silk Road tourism belt in Gansu.Longxi · 1.5km from downtown

In winter, the Weihe River source scenic area is covered in silver, with frozen rivers and emerald green frost. The branches are covered with rime ice, resembling a world of jade. The snow-covered mountains are even more ethereal. Strolling through it, one feels a sense of tranquility and forgets words. It is a great value for money.

The scenery is very nice, but the road is really long. I climbed the plank road for a long time and only walked halfway. I didn't reach the South Gate of Heaven! The only regret is that I didn't find the car to go up the mountain. I only heard people say that I could take a car to the top of the mountain!

Located in the center of Longxi County, Weiyuan Tower is a famous ancient building in Longxi. It is majestic and magnificent, with extraordinary spirit. It stands in the center of Shizi, a big city in Longxi. The surrounding city walls were almost demolished after the founding of the People's Republic of China. Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, this place was still a complex of ancient buildings, which is worth a visit.

I went there with my family on the afternoon of May 5th. Because the short holiday was about to end and we had to go to work the next day, there were basically no people around after 6pm. We were the only ones soaking in the pools one by one. The water was freshly changed and I almost fell asleep while soaking. The environment is good and I have come here many times and have given it a good review.

It is worth a visit. Located in Min County... Strangely, I can't find any scenic spots in Min County, and there are no reviews. An unexpected discovery, climb up and overlook the panoramic view of Min County. The mountain is the colorful Gannan in autumn.

Yuelu Mountain, located in Lintao County, is similar to Wuquan Mountain in Lanzhou. The pavilions and towers are built along the mountain, which is very unique. There are also various calligraphy works describing Lintao along the way. Many locals come to exercise early in the morning. The air is fresh and the scenery is pleasant. It is worth visiting.
