According to historical records, during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the lakes in the city accounted for about one-third of the city's area. There were lakes around the east, south, west and north of the city, passing through the city from south to north. The lakes were full of reeds, and in spring The rippling blue waves are home to waterbirds; the green reeds in summer are rich in emerald green; the swaying flowers in autumn and the singing of fish and geese. "Autumn wind in the reeds" and "fish watching in the sweet spring" are among the eight beautiful scenery of Ganzhou in ancient times. Since entering the new century, under the guidance of the concept of ecological civilization, Zhangye has vigorously carried out the work of restoring wetlands and built the national-level Zhangye Wetland Park; the beautiful scenery of Zhangye’s ripples is exactly what is called in ecology Wetlands are also known as the "lungs of the earth". Wetlands are not only a place for sightseeing and enjoying the scenery, but also the core content of a city. What does it mean to be livable and travelable? What is landscaping? This is it!

Walking into the Wetland Park, you will enter a paradise on earth with birds singing and flowers fragrant, orioles singing and swallows dancing, water ripples, mountains and lakes. The vast grassland, the puddles of green water, the birds and ducks playing in the water, the lush reeds, and the beautiful flowing water like the sound of the piano, all make people feel relaxed and happy.

Zhangye Wetland Park has a wooden plank road that winds along the lake and grassy beach and stretches into the distance. The water in the wetland flows in a winding way, and the surrounding green grass and green land are auspicious and auspicious. It has the artistic conception of "the green mountains are surrounded by no way, and suddenly thousands of sails are reflected." Of course, it is not Qianfan who comes. , but girls who are as red as apricot blossoms or as white as peach blossoms. They are all so pretty and full of smiles. The fluttering red silk scarves are warm and charming, making people think of them.

In Zhangye in summer, the sun is high in the sky, and a thin mist rises in the Wetland Park due to the ground temperature. The auspicious atmosphere surrounds the visitors, and the plants look much gentler. But I saw that the flowers on the trees were blooming delicately, the reeds were arranged like a girl's Ana, the mandarin ducks were swimming in pairs in the pool, and the oriole birds were singing gracefully in the flowers; the lake was calm, the waves were sparkling, and the water plants were exploring Out of the water, the green grass is like dye, looking up at the tourists. The water is soft and crystal clear. Small fish shake their heads and tails, swimming leisurely. A few white warblers spread their wings from the water plants and fly across the calm water. . It really echoes the poem of the ancients: "The flowers are blooming, the mangroves are singing orioles, and the grass is growing and the egrets are flying across the lake."

Good scene: The name of the state is Gan, and the name of the mansion is Zhangye. It meanders to the new country of Mongolia and extends to the territory of Qinghai-Tibet. It belonged to Yongzhou in ancient times and was established as a county in the Han Dynasty. Juqu Mengxun established the capital, and Emperor Yang organized a large-scale world expo. In the Yuan Dynasty, Ganzhou was the leader, and today's Long Province began to exist. In the Ming Dynasty, it was the administrative seat of Shaanxi and Gansu, and in the Qing Dynasty, it was the governor of Gansu. Mountains and rivers are the strategic points of the Silk Road. Zhang Guo's arm was tied to connect the Western Regions. The link connecting the east and west is located in the center of Wuji, the upper boundary; it is connected to Qilian on the north side of the mountain, forming the shape of Cui Wei crouching on a tiger. It is located on the frontier, but it has the charm of a water town in the south; the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, but it also has the vast soul of the north. Half of the city is covered with pagodas, which can be called the capital of Buddha; ancient temples are everywhere, and it is suspected that the ancient country has reappeared. The drum tower is powerful in the city, and its reputation reaches far and wide; the wooden tower stands high in the clouds, surrounded by auspiciousness.

Hard-working people get rich first, and flowers and trees bloom in the sun. Discover unique resources and be the most charming. The sky is connected to the water, and the wetlands in the north of the city are charming; there are mountains and mountains, and the snow-capped mountains in the south of the city are towering; the wind blows the grass low, and there are cattle and sheep all over the east of the city; the long river is round and the sun is shining, and the desert in the north of the city is solitary smoke. The ancient town is famous and has a far-reaching reputation. Visitors come from all over the world and tourists are like ants. There is a saying: there are three spring willows on the banks of Ganquan Lake, and flowers of all seasons in the frontier city. Not looking at the snow on the top of Qilian Peak, I mistook Zhangye for the south of the Yangtze River.

In this way, the lake in Hangzhou, the bridge in Suzhou, the awning boat in Wuzhen, the fog in Chongqing, the landscape in Guilin, the sea of ??flowers in Guangzhou, the tea stalls in Chengdu, the tea stalls in Qiantang The tides and the big tents are all there; if you don't travel far and travel across thousands of rivers and mountains, what's the regret? Haha, I feel a bit like a frog in a well; but in the twelfth chapter of "Journey to the West", when Xuanzang established the assembly sincerely, Guanyin appeared in the golden cicada and said: Sanzang took the wine and was about to drink it. Taizong lowered his head and said, Pick up a handful of dust with your finger and flick it into the wine. Sanzang didn't understand what he meant. Taizong said with a smile: "My dear brother, when will I be able to come back to the West?" Sanzang said, "It will only take three years for me to return to my country." Taizong said, "As time goes by, it will get worse." , The mountains are far away and the road is far away, I can drink this wine: I would rather love my hometown for a piece of soil than a thousand taels of gold for a foreign land. "From now on, dear, you know, this is called loving your hometown.

Without further ado, dear, let’s go on to enjoy the beautiful scenery of Zhangye. The beauty of Zhangye lies not only in the scenery of the water town, but also in its all-encompassing nature. Danxia, ??do you know? According to Baidu Encyclopedia, Danxia landform refers to red clastic rocks (mainly conglomerate and sandstone) formed by horizontal or gentle layered iron-calcium mixed and unevenly cemented. It is affected by vertical or high Angle cleavage cutting, and under the combined effects of differential weathering, gravity collapse, water dissolution, wind erosion, etc., a castle-shaped, pagoda-shaped, needle-shaped, columnar, rod-shaped, square mountain-shaped or peak forest-shaped landform with steep cliffs is formed. feature. Theoretical things are cumbersome and boring, far inferior to seeing them in practice.

Exit the north gate and west gate of Zhangye and drive about 50 kilometers north and west respectively, which is the famous Pingshan Lake Danxia District and Zhangye, Linze and Sunan Danxia District, now called " Zhangye National Geopark". Zhangye Danxia Landform is located in a vast wilderness. The colorful hills under the blue sky and white clouds are like golden ribbons dancing on the earth. It’s really hard to imagine how such dazzling colorful hills were formed in Zhangye, far away in the inland northwest. Why is it so beautiful? ! In Zhangye after the rain, the sky is as blue as the sea water, and the white clouds are long, like homeless vagrants; against the blue sky and white clouds are the bright hills, as if painted on a palette, the beautiful scenery will bring Give you unexpected surprises! Standing on the top of the mountain and looking into the distance, it looks like a colorful lake with calm waves; therefore, it has the reputation of Pingshan Lake. Pingshan Lake is not a lake. Pingshan Lake is a flat and colorful mountainous area like a lake. Because it is remote, it is pure; because it is plump, it is beautiful. Zhangye Danxia is the most beautiful! Well-deserved reputation!

One side is sea water, the other side is flame. These are two completely different concepts. In Zhangye, they merge into one. The reason is Zhangye’s tolerance and magic. Just as what is bigger than the land is the ocean, what is bigger than the ocean is the sky, and what is bigger than the sky is the human mind, the mind of Zhangye people is bigger than the sky. Therefore, Zhangye is not impossible, it’s just that you didn’t expect it. For example, the grasslands in Zhangye are comparable to those anywhere in the country.

"Huma, Huma, put them far away at the foot of Yanzhi Mountain." This is a sentence from a fresh and meaningful poem "Teasing Hu Ma" by Wei Yingwu of the Tang Dynasty. The Yanzhi Mountain in the poem is located in today's Shandan County, Gansu Province, stretching between the Qilian Mountains and the Longshou Mountain. The nearby Damaying Grassland is rich in water and grass. It has been a famous royal racecourse since the Han Dynasty and an important border defense point in ancient times. land. It's early spring, the grass is green, the remaining snow has not disappeared, but the grassy beach is a magnificent scene of "the herds of horses neighing and the grass is green". The characteristic of Damaying grassland is that it is vast and vast, giving people a feeling of desolation; therefore, Wei Yingwu went on to write in the poem: "Running on the sand and running on the snow alone, looking east and west looking at the lost road. Lost, lost, endless grass Sunset." Look at this horse, lost in the vast prairie, lost in the herd, "running through the sand, running through the snow; looking east and west," restless and a bit tragic and worried. Is this artistic conception beautiful enough? !

Compared with the vastness, vastness and desolation of Damaying Grassland, Kangle Grassland in Sunan Yugur Autonomous County is much warmer. The Yugu people are an ethnic minority with the smallest population in the country. They are distributed in a narrow strip of land at the northern foot of the Qilian Mountains in the middle of the Hexi Corridor, with a vast grassland area. How vast is the grassland of the Yugu people in Sunan? We might as well actually compare it.

Jiutiaoling Coal Mine is about 50 kilometers away from Wuwei City, but it is under the jurisdiction of Sunan County; Wenzhu Temple, a national key cultural relic protection unit, is about 20 kilometers away from Jiuquan City. Sorry, it is in Qifeng Township, Sunan. The straight-line distance from Wuwei City to Jiuquan City is about 500 kilometers, which is equivalent to a province in the mainland. With such a comparison, dear friends, you should have an intuitive understanding of what Sunan is, right?

Kangle Grassland in Sunan is about 100 kilometers away from Zhangye City and about 50 kilometers away from Sunan County. It is located in Baiyin Town, Sunan County. It is one of the six most beautiful grasslands in the country. From Baiyin to Kangle Grassland, it is called the "Yugu National Customs Line"; here, the Yugu culture shows its brilliance.

The Yugu people are a nation that is good at singing and dancing. If they can talk, they can sing, and if they can walk, they can dance. Don’t be dissatisfied, this is a gene that comes with you. The Yugu people are warm and hospitable. When guests from afar come, the girls of the Yugu people will show off their sweet singing voices and sing a "Welcome Song" for you. They will also present you with white hada; of course, mellow wine is also indispensable.

The Yugu grassland is immersed in warm auspiciousness.

At sunrise, cattle and sheep fill the fields, and the pastoral songs are long and charming. It is simple and peaceful, but it burns people with contradictory beauty, making the sea of ??flowers like a magnificent emerald inlaid on the Qilian hillside. The Qilian Mountain prairie is a vast expanse of green grass and vast sea of ??mist. The Horseshoe Temple and Wenzhu Temple embraced by the mountains are full of peace and harmony. The small streams are winding and graceful. The sunset is gorgeous and the red light all over the ground is romantic and tender. The natural scenery and simplicity Colorful ethnic customs complement each other and create a unique atmosphere. Stroll there, pillow on the sound of the creek, watch the sunset, the water and the sky are the same color, fly across the sky on a horse, see the mountains and peaks, taste milk tea and butter, eat roasted whole sheep with cakes, and listen to the melodious Yugu music. The clan songs are endlessly interesting.

The sunrise at Yugu Grassland is also amazing.

The prairie night gradually retreats, and dawn gradually falls. At the beginning, the east was still green and still dotted with stars; after a while, as the sky turned blue, the Qilian Mountains leaning against the back and the grassland in front of them also lost their black gauze, revealing the color of indigo; then, the morning light flickered, pulling away the blue clouds in the east. Curtain... Gradually, the clouds connecting the edge of the grassland changed from iron-green to mottled, and a light lead color appeared under the sky, and it gradually became thicker and thinner, from thicker to lighter, from round to long, ethereal and misty, Swim dissociated. Unconsciously, the cloud curtain opened, and the lead-colored sky was instantly dyed with an orange color. The color then turned into light red, then pink, then orange, first like a shy girl, and then like a vast tent floating up. The colorful silk gradually burned from east to south, west, north, bottom to top, from far to near. Soon, the sky across the grassland also burned, and a red sun was about to rise from the east.

At this time, red light pours in from the east. Wherever the red light goes, the grassland becomes colorful, and the dewdrops on the flowers also emit colorful light. Looking from a distance, in the golden light on the horizon, there is a dot that is particularly bright. Although it is small, it is full of energy. The golden light is scattered from the dot, like a hot incandescent light bulb. The dot rose quickly, getting bigger and bigger, and more golden light shot out, shooting towards the sky, towards the white clouds, and towards the grassland. After a while, the sun finally broke free from the entanglement of the horizon and hung in the sky, shining its light on the earth and sky. The black disappeared without a trace, and everything returned to its original color. The sky was blue and the clouds were The grass is white, the grass is green, the flowers are colorful, the horses are brown, white, red and yellow, the tents are white and blue, the wisps of smoke rising from the grassland are indigo, and the Qilian Mountains behind are cold and stern. Cyan blue.

The snow-capped mountains shine silver in the sun, streams flow from the mountains, the blue sky is deep and vast, the wilderness is empty and vast, the water and grass are luxuriant, the cattle and sheep are scattered on the grassland, submerged in the lush pastures. When a strong wind blows, the grass undulates and the fat cattle and sheep appear. This is the beautiful Yugu Grassland, a paradise-like place.
