Lazy Version of Lanzhou One-Day Tour, Be a Child of the Yellow River for a Day

If I only stay in Lanzhou for one day, I would definitely waste a whole day by the Yellow River Eating Lanzhou noodles, drinking Sanpaotai, basking in the sun Just being a carefree child of the Yellow River for a day~ 🍜🍜 A day in Lanzhou starts with a steaming hot breakfast The freshly pulled Lanzhou noodles, any random shop is delicious Add eggs🥚, vegetables🥬➕, and soy-simmered beef🥩, Eating slices of the beef while it's hot, it's really comfy~ 🌊🌊 Not wanting a packed tour, I only went to three places ✅Gansu Provincial Museum A must-visit museum in China, it's recommended to book in advance, closed on Mondays The museum is really great to wander around, with treasures like the Flying Horse of Gansu, and an endless array of exquisite exhibits ✅Forest of Steles After finishing the museum, I took a taxi to the Forest of Steles From there you can overlook the winding Yellow River, and also appreciate some Northwest calligraphy and paintings Admission: Free🆓, just register upon entering (The Yellow River cable car is not open yet, can only walk down the mountain, about 30min, passing through Baita Mountain Park) ✅Zhongshan Bridge, Yellow River Zhongshan Bridge, a landmark of Lanzhou, the first permanent bridge in the Yellow River basin of Lanzhou Below the bridge is the Yellow River, the river in March is green and blue, really awesome to see You can also take a speedboat🚤, cruise ship🚢, or sheepskin raft on the Yellow River There are flocks of pigeons flying around, really has a relaxed and leisurely feeling~ Walking along the riverbank to the Mother of the Yellow River sculpture, ending a pleasant Lanzhou day tour~ Lanzhou Cuisine: Most of Lanzhou's delicacies are concentrated in Xiguan, for night markets there are Dazhong Alley, Zhengning Road night market You can try local milk tea🥤, grilled lamb skewers, Lao Ma's fresh milk egg fermented rice, spicy hot pot... (Didn't look at recommendations, the random choices were all pretty good)
