    The scenery in the scenic area is beautiful. The only regret is that it was foggy in the morning, so we didn't see the sunrise. The mountains and water are beautiful. It's a pity that we didn't have time to walk the whole Runwu Valley. I will definitely go again if I have the chance!

    Although many flowers have faded in September, it does not diminish the beauty of Huahu Lake at all. The sky, the lake surface, wild ducks, and many other unidentified aquatic animals complement each other beautifully.

    Gansu's 5A-level scenic spot is overlooked by everyone. Gannan is too famous, and few people pay attention to Linxia's Bingling Temple Scenic Area. This time, I rushed back to Linxia directly from Huahu due to a cold to adjust my body. I didn't expect that I had the most fun in Linxia for three days. There were not many people, the scenery was beautiful, and there was humanistic history and culture. Bingling Temple gave me too many surprises.

    Guange Valley is divided into two scenic areas: Guanzhu Valley and E'man Valley. Leigu Mountain is located within Guanzhu Valley. The ticket is valid for two days. On the first day, we visited Guanzhu Valley and took the cable car up Leigu Mountain. On the second day, we visited E'man Valley. Overall, it was a good experience. However, the two scenic areas are 17 kilometers apart, and there is no direct bus. You can only drive or take a taxi.

    It was the first time I took the elderly to Lanzhou. I felt the convenience of the service. The volunteers provided wheelchairs. I saw the golden python shedding its skin, the strange jellyfish 🪼 and the mysterious underwater world. It was a very good tour experience!

    The number of visitors was absolutely enormous; you were basically just being pushed around by the crowd. I saw the Flying Horse of Gansu and the Little Girl with the Curtain-like Hairpin. There weren't many exhibits inside; pottery made up a large portion. Overall, it was alright. I hired a guided tour, so at least I didn't just wander around aimlessly.
