    "Knowing Biandukou also has to talk about the documentary "Hexi Corridor" seen during the epidemic at home. So this summer's Ganqing Ring Road itinerary, I came to punch in. On the afternoon of July 16, 2023, after visiting the Leitai Han Tomb Scenic Area, follow Gaode navigation, drive more than 220 kilometers, more than 3 hours, pass G30, S315, Huochengzhen, and arrive at Biandukou. From the Fengcheng toll station, Lianhuo Expressway, the basic roads are provincial roads, county roads, and township roads. Although some roads are in poor road conditions, and I am a car, it is also a deep experience of the northwest countryside scenery, passing by a village when I also encounter sheep "blocking the road", it is quite novel. It was nearly 18:00 when I arrived at the flat mouth, but fortunately, it was dark in the northwest, and there was still time. I went to see rapeseed flowers. The children sat on grass and rode horses. The temperature here is very low, in mid-July summer, the first thing after getting off the bus is to turn out the autumn clothes from the trunk to wear, summer clothes can not stand the "cool" here. Before coming, I booked a homestay called Minle County Biandukou International Self-Driving Camp on Trip.com. In the scenic area, it is very convenient to stay after playing. Staying at this homestay, you can contact the boss for 0 yuan to buy tickets. The scenery of Biandukou is mainly to see rapeseed flowers. It is not rare for our tourists from the east. The rapeseed flowers in Huangshan and Wuyuan are also beautiful. The rapeseed flowers in Biandukou are planted on the hillside, and chatted with the villagers who put horses. The plant here is a low rapeseed. Looking around, the near is golden rapeseed, the flowers are filled; in the distance is green and green, the wind is a wave of green waves; in the distance is the bright outline, dark green Qilian Mountain. Yes, Qilian Mountain is green here, not the dry and bald earth color on both sides of Lianhuo Expressway, which is also one of the beauty of the flat mouth. The scenery of flat mouth is suitable for a long view, grand, magnificent, blue sky and white clouds, distant mountains, green and golden, which makes people feel comfortable. Speaking of accommodation, the price of the homestay we stayed in was not high, the facilities were average, the wooden house standard room was 198 yuan/night, there was no air conditioning, and the floor heating would be turned on at night, otherwise it would be cold to sleep. The temperature here at night was similar to the end of November in Jianghuai. Our room does not include breakfast, but the boss sent breakfast, very simple, porridge and Hanamaki. Personally, tourists from the eastern region come to the west to play, and can not compare food and accommodation with the eastern region. After all, the environment here is relatively bad. What you come to the west is the rough atmosphere and even the desolate scenery, and experience life in different climates and geographical environments. If you still pursue the conditions and exquisite cuisine of star hotels, there is less fun. The first time I ate fried eggs with sand onion was here. The taste was very unique. This dish was very common in the northwest. We only stayed at the flat mouth for one night, and went to the Qilian Prairie the next day. Because the scenery here is to see rape blossoms, and then with a humanistic feeling, we will make up for the history of countless officials, businessmen and travelers who have passed through this place to enter and exit the Western Region and the sense of time and space intersection this evening. This mountain, this water, has long been integrated with history; today, everyone who comes here is also interpreting new history for future generations!"

    "The first time I climbed the mountain, I encountered the first snow in Xinglong Mountain. After winter, the broad-leaved plants on the mountain basically fell. Only the leaves of the pine trees are turquoise, and the snow scene will not be monotonous. It snowed, the wooden steps on the mountain were not smooth because of the paint and snow, and the mountain needed to grab the chain guardrail next to the steps. The experience was very poor! ! !

    "Baita Mountain is located on the banks of the Yellow River in Lanzhou City, more than 1700 meters above sea level, and is named after the "white tower" on the mountain. The mountain of Baita Mountain is undulating, with the majestic position of "arching golden city", and the "white tower layer" is one of the eight scenic spots in Lanzhou. From Lanzhou City, walk through Zhongshan Bridge to the north bank of the Yellow River is Baitashan Park. This is a public park open to the outside world, no tickets are required. The gate of Baita Mountain is in the middle of a building, facing the north of Zhongshan Iron Bridge, built in 1963. There are five big characters "Baitashan Park" on the roadside protection slope, and there are pedestrian trails on both sides of it. The park gate, the black bottom gold sign above the main entrance, has four big characters "Jiuqu Anlan", which is a book written by Mr. Gu Zihuilao, a calligrapher in Lanzhou at the age of 88. The mountain can see the vision of the Yellow River and the whole view of Lanzhou City. On the Baita Mountain, I sighed that the narrow and long Lanzhou City was the narrow and long Lanzhou City. The Wuquan Mountain across the river was clearly visible. Between the two mountains was the narrow and long Lanzhou City. Standing on the mountain to see the Zhongshan Bridge, the Yellow River, the buildings on the other side are still quite good."

    >100km from Huangyuan
    Highlights: Baita Mountain Park is located on the north bank of the Yellow River near the central district of Lanzhou City. The entrance is connected to Zhongshan Bridge and is an important scenic spot in Lanzhou City. Baita Mountain is based on the ancient white pagoda on the top of the mountain. There are many palace-style buildings in the mountains. Many trees are planted around the buildings. It is very good to exercise and take photos here. More importantly, when you climb Baita Mountain, you can see the spectacular panorama of Lanzhou City, with a very wide field of vision. The best time to visit Baita Mountain is in summer. The altitude of the top of the mountain is about 1,700 meters, but it is only about 200 meters high compared to the Lanzhou City below the mountain. The mountain is not high, and it is not difficult to climb up. There are courtyards and temples of some ancient buildings on the road, as well as beautiful trees and lawns, which can be viewed one by one. Arrive at the top area to watch the White Pagoda, take a panoramic view of Lanzhou, and then go to the Lanzhou Forest of Steles behind the mountain, and then go down the mountain and return. The general play time is about 2-3 hours. In addition, if you are not physically strong, you can also take the Yellow River Cableway on the other side of the Yellow River. The cableway passes through the Yellow River and then reaches the mountainside of Baita Mountain. There are roughly three levels of ancient buildings on the mountaineering road of Baita Mountain, including huge arches, city towers and monastery attics. Between these buildings, there are many trees, creating a rare tree-lined environment in the northwest, and it is very comfortable to climb the mountain. Some of the courtyards of the building also have lawns, and wild flowers bloom every spring and summer, which is very beautiful. In addition, there will be people selling handicrafts such as gourd carvings and Yellow River stone carvings on the mountain roads, usually for dozens of dollars a piece, if you are interested, you can buy them. At the top of the mountain is a white pagoda, with a total of seven floors and seventeen meters high. This pagoda was built by Kublai Khan to commemorate the Tibetan Buddhist teacher Saban who died here, and later rebuilt in the Ming Dynasty. One of the symbols is also the origin of the name of Baita Mountain. There are also cultural relics from the Ming and Qing Dynasties such as elephant skin drums and bronze bells on the top of the mountain, which are also the legendary treasures of the town. More importantly, when you look back at the top of the mountain, you can see the panoramic view of Lanzhou city. A Yellow River passes through the city at the foot, and there are row upon row of buildings on both sides of the river bank, which is very spectacular. If you come in the evening or after dark, the buildings and street lights will be on, which is more suitable for shooting beautiful night scenes of the city. On the northwest side of the back of the mountain, there is a forest of steles in Lanzhou, which is a similar round ancient courtyard. On the inner side of the courtyard wall, there are copies of calligraphy and stone carvings of many famous calligraphers from ancient times to modern times. The historical monuments of the King of Xining, "Hui'an Xibiao", "Chunhua Pavilion Tie", etc. have been copied or carved here. In addition, there are calligraphy stone tablets with special characters such as oracle bone script, Tibetan script, Xixia script, and Phashiba script, which are worth visiting. When tourists visit Lanzhou, they usually visit Baita Mountain Park, Lanzhou Waterwheel Expo Park, Zhongshan Bridge, etc. If there is enough time, Gansu Provincial Museum will be added. It is recommended to arrange the itinerary to climb Baita Mountain in the afternoon, go down the mountain in the evening just to see the night scene on both sides of the Yellow River, and then go to the Zhengning Road Night Market not far away to taste delicious snacks, which is very pleasant.
