Culture Activities
Located in the upper reaches of the Yellow Riv-
er, northwest China, Gansu is one of the cradles
of Chinese cultures. With a long history and
brilliant cultures, Gansu is abundantly en-
dowed with cultural relics and natural scenery.
Vast and graceful natural scenery like endless
desert and pure glacial landscape presents an
impressive and breath-taking picture before
your eyes. Take for example the world-
famous Mogao Caves. It is the largest and most
well-preserved Buddhist art palace and also a
post along the ancient Silk Road; the
grand Jiayuguan Pass, an important outpost in
ancient China, is the western end of the Great
Wall.
Lanzhou, a well-known ancient city in China, is the capital of Gansu. It is
the second largest city in northwest China, and also the political, eco-
nomic and cultural center of the province.
The Yellow River, the Chinese Mother River, runs through the city, ensur-
ing rich crops of many juicy and fragrant fruits. Covering an area of
1631.6 square kilometers (629.96 square miles), it was once a key point
on the ancient Silk Road. Today, it is a hub of the Silk Road Tourism Ring.

Culture Activities
Dunhuang
Echoing-Sand Mountain (Mingsha Shan)
The mountain is five kilometers away from the city of
Dunhuang. Seen from afar, the mountain is just like a golden
dragon winding its way over the horizon. As you approach
you become aware that the sand has many colors ranging
from red to yellow, green, black and white. On days when a
strong wind blows, the fast shifting sand roars; but when the
wind is little more than a light breeze, the sand produces
gentle, dulcet sounds akin to music. It is the same when you
are sliding down the mountainside. At first, the sand under
your feet just whispers; but the further you slide, the louder
the sound until it reaches a crescendo like thunder or a drum
beat. Some say that the sand is singing, while to others it is
like an echo and this is how the mountain gets its name.
The Crescent Lake
The Crescent Lake is also known as the Crescent Spring or Yueya Spring.
It is located north of the Echoing-Sand Mountain and about six kilometers
south of Dunhuang City. It can be considered a natural wonder of the Go-
bi Desert. Just as its name implies, the lake appears like a crescent moon
and with its crystal clear water, resembles a turquoise or pearl inlaid in
the vast desert. Some say it reminds them of the eye of a beautiful woman,
lucid, beautiful and amorous. Others say it looks like the mysterious, gen-
tle and seductive lips of a pretty woman, or a slice of a lush, sweet and
crystal cantaloupe.
Mogao Caves
Located 25 kilometers southeast of Dunhuang, Mogao Caves is regarded
as the premier Buddhist spot in China, perhaps in the whole world. The
artistic features of the treasured Buddhist murals represent perfectly the
artistic style of the Northern Wei (386-543), Sui (581-618) and Tang (618-
907) dynasties through the combination of the architecture, statues and
murals in the caves. Presently, there are about ten caves and two exhibi-
tion centers open to the public, occasionally more during public holi-
days.
Danxia Landform Geopark (Rainbow Mountains )
Extending along the northern slope of Qilian Mountain in west China,
Zhangye Danxia National Geological Park in Gansu is the best repre-
sentative of China's colorful Danxia landform and the largest Danxia land-
scape in an arid area, with a wide variety of landforms. Undulating fiery-
red ridges together with amazing multicolored mountain folds transform
the park into an immense sea of fire with rolling waves, earning it the rep-
utation of China's Rainbow Mountains and also one of the 'Top 10 Geo-
graphical Wonders of the World' selected by the National Geographic.
Culture Activities
Jiayuguan Great Wall
Jiayuguan is a pass standing at the western end of the Ming Dynasty
Great Wall. Different from the well-known sections built with stones or
bricks, Jiayuguan Great Wall was built with rammed earth, making yel-
low its dominant hue and helping the pass blend harmoniously with the
surrounding desert. The city where the pass is located is named after the
pass, also called Jiayuguan, sitting in China’s northwest Gansu Province.

Chaka Salt Lake
Chaka Salt Lake (Caka Salt Lake) is in the western part of the Chaka Basin,
298 kilometers from Xining, capital of Qinghai. This natural crystallized
saline lake is regarded as the eastern gateway to Qaidam Basin, which
reserves the largest salt mine in the world. Lying at an altitude of 3,059
meters , the lake is oval shape and covers an area of 105 square kilome-
ters , ten times larger than theWest Lake of Hangzhou. However, it is the
smallest among the several salt lakes in Qaidam area, but different from
others for its coexistence of both solid and liquid salt. The snow-white
lake bed and the crystal blue water against the azure sky win it the repu-
tation of ‘Mirror of the Sky’. Travel to such a beautiful world of salt em-
bedded in the snowy mountains and verdant meadows, tourists would in-
evitably feel like they are in a fairyland.
Culture Activities
Qinghai Lake
From ancient times to the present, whenever people mention Qing-
hai Lake they think of 'green lake', 'blue sea' or 'fairyland', because of
the marvelous natural beauty reflected on it. As to the area, it is the
largest inland and salt water lake in China. It is no exaggeration to
say that Qinghai Lake is a miracle that is endowed by a deity. Out-
side, he circles the lake with four continuous mountains and extends
broad grassland at the foot of them. Inside, like a master baker, he
decorated the water with many little islands. All these natural attrac-
tions come together perfectly to form a Xanadu on earth to win many
tourists' favor.
