Where is Fuxi City?

Fuxi City is located at the intersection of Nuwa Road and Fuxi Road in Qinzhou District, Tianshui City.

Tianshui in Gansu Province is called "the hometown of Huang Xi". Fu, the ancestor of the Chinese nation, was born here. Fu is one of the clan leaders in primitive society of China. Fuxi City is located in the center of Tianshui, and its four archways are particularly eye-catching. The buildings in the Ming Dynasty are antique and patchwork.

Similarly, the commercial flavor is quite strong. There are many shops selling antiques, calligraphy and painting, lacquerware and musical instruments in the city, including restaurants, entertainment and teaching shops. It is also a pleasure to experience the life of the ancients.

As early as more than 2,000 years ago in the Western Han Dynasty, the Hexi Corridor was occupied by Xiongnu before Emperor Wu of Han Dynasty. In BC 12 1 year, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty sent Huo Qubing to defeat the Huns, and the Hexi Corridor was incorporated into the territory of the Han Dynasty.

At that time, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty set up four counties in Hexi Corridor, namely Wuwei, Zhangye, Jiuquan and Dunhuang, and set up Yumenguan and Yangguan in Dunhuang, which were called "four counties, according to two customs".

The names of the four counties in Hexi have not changed so far, and now they have become four cities in Gansu Province, namely Wuwei City, Zhangye City, Jiuquan City and Dunhuang City, among which the first three are prefecture-level cities and Dunhuang City is county-level city. These four cities have a long history and many historical sites, which are well worth visiting.

From Wuwei to Zhangye, the natural scenery here is beautiful and strange, and it is a popular tourist city in summer. Many tourists will go to Menyuan, Qinghai to see rape flowers. In fact, Zhangye, Gansu Province also has beautiful rape fields. Zhangye's most famous is naturally the colorful Danxia landform. Danxia landform can be seen in many places in China, but the colorful Danxia in Zhangye is a must.

From Zhangye to the west is Jiuquan City. In fact, among the four counties in Hexi, Wuwei and Jiuquan were the earliest established, both of which were established in BC 12 1 year. Ten years later, Zhangye County was established in 1 1 year BC, while Dunhuang County was established in 88 BC at the latest. Dunhuang, located at the junction of Gansu and Xinjiang, is a famous tourist city.
