Lanzhou Danxia Geological Park

洛洛细雨
Special topography, pure natural, a good choice for refreshing eyes. Bring children here, the weather is great, breeze. The scenic area is very large, and they will promote VIP services for 298. If you are not short of money, you can go for it, otherwise there is still a little way to go.

Danxia Road Trip Campsite

Kushui Danxia, ​​a Danxia landform that looks like pork belly, do you want to come and see it? This Danxia landform has not been developed yet. It is called Kushui Danxia, ​​not the famous Zhangye Danxia. Kushui Danxia is located in Yongdeng County, Lanzhou. There is a large area between Kushui Town and Xinghua Village, Shuping Town. This area located in Kushui is currently undeveloped, with almost no tourists, and occasionally a few photographers come to take pictures.

The ancient Silk Road, there are many animals at the entrance, children can feed the small animals, there are many horses, the scene has a bit of flavor. Take a bus from the entrance to here, and then change to a sightseeing bus to the top of the mountain. The top of the mountain is the best viewing point, and you can see the most beautiful ink Danxia.

Kushui Town

M85***97
Kushui Town is a town under the jurisdiction of Yongdeng County, Lanzhou City, Gansu Province, China. It is named because the local water quality is slightly bitter, but it is more well-known for its unique natural scenery, cultural traditions and characteristic agriculture (especially rose planting). The following is a travel review and recommendation about Kushui Town for reference: ‌Highlights‌ ‌Rose Town‌ Kushui Town is an important rose planting base in northwest China. Every year from May to June, thousands of acres of roses bloom, forming a spectacular "rose sea". Local products such as rose essential oil, rose jam, and rose tea have also been derived. Visitors can participate in the picking experience or buy souvenirs. ‌Kushui Danxia‌ The town is distributed with typical Danxia landforms, with reddish-brown mountains and green vegetation complementing each other, suitable for hiking and photography enthusiasts to visit. ‌Intangible Cultural Heritage-Kushui Gaogaoqiao Kushui Gaogaoqiao is a national intangible cultural heritage project. Performers stand on wooden stilts more than 3 meters high and perform historical stories in traditional costumes. Performances are held every Spring Festival or major festivals, which are very folk. ‌Zhutuo Mountain Scenic Area‌ Located next to Kushui Town, Zhutuo Mountain is said to be related to the Qing Dynasty monk "Fengdian Monk". There are temples and statues on the mountain. You can overlook the Zhuanglang River and Danxia landscape when you climb to the top. ‌Travel Suggestions‌ ‌Best season‌: May-June (rose blooming period), or autumn (cool climate in September-October). ‌Must-experience‌: Visit the rose plantation and taste the rose banquet (rose cake, rose wine). Watch the Kushui stilt performance (need to check the festival time in advance). Hike the Danxia landform and take pictures of the natural scenery. ‌Transportation and Accommodation‌ ‌Transportation‌: From Lanzhou: drive for about 1.5 hours (70 kilometers), or take a bus from Lanzhou West Bus Station to Yongdeng County, and then transfer to a local vehicle. ‌Accommodation‌: The town is mainly composed of farmhouses and economic hotels. It is recommended to book in advance; you can also choose to return to Lanzhou city on the same day for accommodation. ‌Notes‌ There are many tourists during the rose blooming period. It is recommended to avoid the peak of holidays. Pay attention to sun protection and mosquito prevention in summer; keep warm in winter because the climate is cold and dry. Respect local customs and ask for permission before filming the stilt performance. ‌Summary‌ Kushui Town is a niche travel destination that combines natural wonders with folk culture, suitable for tourists who like rural scenery and cultural experience. Although the supporting facilities are not as complete as those in big cities, its original ecological simplicity and unique rose industry culture are still worth exploring. If you plan to go there, it is recommended to plan the itinerary in combination with Lanzhou City (such as Zhongshan Bridge, Gansu Provincial Museum) or surrounding attractions (such as Turugou National Forest Park) to enrich the travel experience.

Lutusi Yamen

奇峰云海
In Liancheng Town, Yongdeng County, Lanzhou City, more than 100 kilometers away from Lanzhou. There are dozens of kilometers of national and provincial highways from the highway. There are many trucks. After passing through several tunnels, one tunnel is bidirectional, the speed limit is relatively low, there are many cars, and the tunnel is narrow, so you need to drive carefully. Lu Tusi Yamen is in Liancheng Town. Maybe it is a village. I didn't pay much attention. Anyway, it is in a residential area. The scenic area has set up parking spaces, not too many, but not many cars. Figure 1, drive in from here. In the last picture, do you see the cars at the archway? There are parking spaces there, probably less than 10, and the fee is 5 yuan. Scan WeChat to buy tickets in the scenic area, 20 yuan for adults and 10 yuan for students. This Tusi Yamen is really rustic. It is not an antique building (antique is boring), it is authentic, with a deep historical heritage, completely surpassing the Hekou Ancient Town in Xigu District, Lanzhou. We went to the Huozhou Yamen in Shanxi during the summer vacation, and Lu Tusi Yamen was as rustic as that one. The scenic area can be visited for up to 1 hour. It is too far from Lanzhou City. If it is close, it will be crowded. I didn't visit it carefully, so I don't know why the yamen was built in this remote place. Considering the ticket price and cultural heritage, it is still worth a visit. If you go from Xining to Lanzhou, it will be more convenient to go to Lu Tusi Yamen.

Zhutuo Mountain

空林野寺
Zhutuo Mountain is located in Kushui Town, Yongdeng County, Lanzhou City. It is a tourist attraction that integrates natural scenery and cultural landscape. There are towering temples, spectacular Danxia landforms and beautiful natural scenery on the mountain. It is named after the legend that a pig carried a Buddha statue up the mountain. The geographical environment here is unique, the mountains are steep, and the Danxia landform adds a bit of magnificence to it. When you stand at the foot of the mountain and look up, the mountains are undulating, and the red sandstone is like a burning flame under the reflection of the sun, showing a majestic and warm beauty. Self-driving: You can locate Zhutuo Mountain through navigation software, start from Lanzhou City, drive along the Beijing-Tibet Expressway, get off the expressway at the Kushui Town exit, and then follow the road signs to Zhutuo Mountain. Public transportation: Take a shuttle bus from Lanzhou City to Yongdeng County, transfer to a bus to Kushui Town in Yongdeng County, and then walk or take local transportation to Zhutuo Mountain.

Overall it's good, the kids had a lot of fun, but the food is a bit monotonous, the water in some of the hot spring pools at the back is a bit unclean, the indoor temperature is good, but the water temperature of some rides is a bit cold!
