first day:


Tianshui Ancient City: The Xiguan area is a community of ancient residential buildings with a long history in Tianshui City, preserving relatively complete buildings from the Ming, Qing, and Republic of China periods. With the passage of time and erosion, the ancient residential buildings in Xiguan have inevitably become endangered. In order to timely rescue and protect this historical block, in 2018, Tianshui City launched the first phase of the comprehensive protection and utilization project for the Xiguan area of Tianshui Ancient City.


The next day: Tianshui * * Diebu


After breakfast, we went to the documentary "Maijishan Grottoes" and systematically filmed the fifteen special caves of Maijishan for the first time. This is also the first aerial photography of grottoes from close range and multiple perspectives. In the narrative process, a scenario based virtualization technique was used, combined with animation synthesis, to vividly narrate the real story that happened in Maiji Mountain for more than 1600 years through visual and auditory effects. It vividly expressed the integration and evolution of Buddhism in China, revealed the emotional journey of emperors and scholars, and the life trajectory of ordinary people in the historical tide. The panoramic display of grottoes, Buddha statues, and murals confirms the significant research value of the Maijishan Grottoes in Chinese history. After the tour, take a bus to the Lazikou Memorial Monument, which is located in Diebu County, Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Gansu Province. The monument is 2.5 meters wide, symbolizing the 25000 mile Long March, and 9.16 meters high, symbolizing the victory over the treacherous Lazikou on September 16, 1935.

Looking forward through the car window, the scenic spots gradually became clearer. Rows of houses and temples are scattered along the small river and hillside. Green pines and cypresses, fresh flowers and lush greenery complement each other with red walls, green tiles, and red cliffs, complementing each other perfectly. Nearby, a bright small river strung the buildings on both sides like pearls, with smoke rising from cooking fires and mist rising along the river. In the distance, the mountains are towering and shrouded in clouds and mist, creating an atmosphere of "birds soaring high, lonely clouds drifting away alone". Afterwards, take a bus to the Flower Lake Scenic Area. Flower Lake is located next to the 213 National Highway between Ruoergai in Sichuan and Langmu Temple in Gansu. It is a blue sapphire embedded in the grassland, shimmering with golden light, covering an area of ten thousand hectares. The lake shore is lush with reeds and grass. Yellow ducks, stream gulls, and black necked cranes often inhabit the lakeside, playing and enjoying themselves in the water, while dry otters and grey rabbits shuttle and appear. Swans, white cranes, and black necked cranes gather in groups, dancing gracefully or soaring in the blue sky. Joyful larks fly in the air, immersing themselves in the scene, as if entering a dreamlike animal kingdom. Stay in the hotel and rest later!
