| Lanzhou, the capital city of Gansu Province, serves as a vital central hub in western China and a nationally comprehensive transportation junction. The Yellow River flows through the city, spanning over 150 kilometers within its territory, with a 47.5-kilometer stretch passing through the urban area. The unique topography, characterized by two mountains standing opposite each other and the Yellow River running through the valley, creates a distinctive urban charm where mountain and water landscapes are exceptionally prominent. Lanzhou experiences a temperate continental climate, with an average annual temperature of 10.9℃. Its mild summers without extreme heat and relatively temperate winters make it a renowned summer retreat. |
