小小导游爱旅游
The Grottoes of Qianling Temple were founded in the Western Qin period of the 16 countries and have a history of more than 1600 years. It is a key cultural relics protection unit in the country and was listed in the World Heritage List in 2014. The grottoes are beautifully carved, the murals are colorful, each Buddha statue carries the story of a thousand years, and each mural tells the ancient legend.

Dadunxia Sceneic Area

不安分的人呀
I used the weekend to accompany my parents to the Dadun Gorge, the scenery is good, the air is fresh. Here is a reminder to the people behind: 1. It is best to take a one-way cable car, either walk on the cable car or walk on the cable car. On the road, I met a few locals who were climbing up, and I couldn't walk and gave up. It is said that I have been here 3 times. 2. I asked the ticket salesman for the cable car and took the road on the right. It is said that the scenery is also better. 3. Tickets + scenic traffic car 50, cable car 60 round-trip 110 one way. Tucao under the scenic traffic car, so hot weather tourists directly shouted that the car was too stuffy, the driver master still insisted on not turning on the air conditioner. The fly in the ointment, otherwise it will be perfect for 5 stars. Time is limited, in fact, you should go to Mengda Tianchi and Lajia ruins on the way, and have the opportunity to go again in the future.

Mengda Tianchi

Mengda Tianchi is known as "Xishuangbanna, Tianyu Shangri-La", an area of about 300 mu, the pool water is clear and blue, the blue sky is the same color, the peaks reflect, with the waves. The water birds fly in the lake, and the fish swim comfortably. The forest covers an area of more than 140,000 mu, with subtropical and warm temperate plants, and the forest is inhabited by Sumen, Linyi, Elk, Rock Sheep, Fox, Snow Chicken, Horse Chicken and other rare and exotic animals. To Xunhua to enjoy the autumn, the first thing to go is to Mengda Tianchi, the autumn Tianchi is the most beautiful of the year, that layer of forest-drenched Mengda mountain forest and microwave rippling a pool of water, enough to satisfy all your yearning for autumn scenery. Especially the rainbow waterfall in Tianchi, in the autumn leaves released all the passion.

Lanzhou Danxia Geological Park

📍 Lanzhou ink Danxia is not as famous as Zhangye's colorful Danxia, but Lanzhou ink Danxia is more cost-effective. Marathon runner tickets and sightseeing cars are free.🆓 Standing at a height of 1949 meters above sea level overlooking the entire mountain.⛰️ The continuous ups and downs are like a picturesque natural picture. No need The color tone has made people feel beautiful and suffocating. It is wider than the colorful Danxia. Today, the whole scenic spot is half a horse race [laughing]

Eight Lanes and Thirteen Alleys

小小导游爱旅游
Bafang 13 Lane is a block with a strong history and culture, surrounded by antique houses. Walking on the bluestone road, it seems to travel back to that ancient era, feeling the precipitation of the years and the charm of history. The building in the block is unique and the national style is rich, which is a great place for photography lovers.

The four of them passed through Lanzhou and visited the Yellow River Building. The building houses the Yellow River Cultural Expo Hall, which displays the history, ecology and humanities of the Yellow River Basin through cultural relics, holographic images, and interactive devices. It focuses on Lanzhou's status as a "Silk Road town" and "Yellow River capital". There is a viewing platform on the top floor, where you can enjoy a 360-degree view of Lanzhou city scenery and the magnificent view of the Yellow River.

Labrang Monastery

龙行天下之飞龙在天
Labrang Temple is located in Xiahe County, Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Gansu Province, with a history of more than 300 years. It is one of the largest monasteries of Tibetan Buddhism Gelu. The monastery sits north and south, covering a total area of 86.6 million square meters, and the construction area is more than 400,000 square meters. As one of the six major monasteries of Tibetan Buddhism Gelu, Labrang Temple is known as the "World Tibetan Academy". Labrang Temple was once the center of politics and religion in Gannan, with Wensi College, Shilun College, Sakyamuni Temple and other attractions. Its architectural style and characteristics are mostly modeled on the four major monasteries in Tibet. Labrang Temple has always maintained the best Tibetan Buddhist teaching system in the country, and is a highly respected learning center. At the same time, Labrang Temple pays more attention to the difference between people and Buddha, follows the dual distribution characteristics of "reality (surrounding villages and towns)" and "the other side", and divides its layout into four levels, starting from the river bed and dividing it from low to high according to the terrain (mainly Xiang underbuildings), Secondary terraces (most buildings in this area, such as Wensi College, Shilun College, etc.), second and third class intersections (the space is relatively narrow, mainly Maitreya Buddha Temple), third-level terraces (mainly white umbrellas to cover the Buddha Temple), pay attention to the principle of unity, hierarchy and centrifugal layout, The higher the place is closer to the Buddha, the higher the development status of Labrang Temple. In addition to the six major colleges, Buddhist temples and monk houses, there are also small attractions such as the Printing Academy, the Buddha Tower and the Transit Gallery. Among them, the printing institute was established by Jiamuxiang II in 1749, and is a classic printing institution of Labrang Temple. It was destroyed during the "Cultural Revolution" and was rebuilt in 1990. It has preserved the life works of Zongkaba's brother, all Jiamu samples and many other living Buddhas, monks and other Tibetan classic printing plates. There are also a large number of Buddhas, Buddha statues, Tancheng floor plan printing plates, etc. There are bronze cast-and-gold pagodas and masonry towers in the temple. The masonry towers are composed of platforms, tower bodies, towers, and masonry towers. The masonry towers have white towers, clutch towers and god-becoming white towers. The white tower is on the west side of the monastery, the clutch tower is on the left side of the Great Jingtang. The Shenchang White Tower is located in the square in the northeast corner of the monastery. The Gongtang Pagoda is located in the southwest of the monastery. The Gongtang Pagoda has five floors, of which the bottom three floors are the towers, and the fourth floor is a Buddhist temple. The third floor is the same as the Buddha statue. The fifth floor is a cylindrical tower brake. The scale of the corridor is relatively large, and the temple is built on the east, west and south sides, with about 512 rooms.
