The taste is very good, the environment is nice, and the service is satisfactory.

到甘肃来就应该来看看黄河楼，比较有纪念意义的事情。

When you come to Gansu, you should come and see the Yellow River Tower, which is quite a memorable thing.

2020年9月30日，第二天，住吴忠，雨夜探访黄河楼。[One]到达吴忠已经很晚了，天空又开始下雨，还是去看了黄河楼夜景，非常漂亮。晚餐的加量牛肉面，非常实在。[Two]黄河楼景区山、河、楼一体的大文化景观，兰州地标和山水名楼。中华黄河楼整体风格为仿明清的古建筑，主色调是中国红和富贵黄，它的屋脊是具有地方风格的十字重檐。可乘电梯直达楼顶，登临观滚滚黄河之水，感受大河奔流的波澜壮阔之景，思古今之情。

September 30, 2020, the second day, I stayed in Wuzhong and visited the Yellow River Tower on a rainy night.

[One] It was late when I arrived in Wuzhong, and it started to rain again, but I still went to see the night view of the Yellow River Tower, which was very beautiful. The extra beef noodles for dinner were very good.

[Two] The Yellow River Tower Scenic Area is a large cultural landscape integrating mountains, rivers, and towers, a landmark of Lanzhou and a famous mountain and water tower. The overall style of the Chinese Yellow River Tower is an imitation of the ancient buildings of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The main colors are Chinese red and rich yellow, and its roof is a cross-shaped double eaves with local style. You can take the elevator directly to the top of the building, climb up to watch the rolling water of the Yellow River, feel the magnificent scenery of the rushing river, and think about the past and present.

As a child, I memorized the ancient poem: &quot;The Yellow River flows far away among the white clouds, a solitary city nestles upon the Ten Thousand-Ren Mountain. Why should the Qiang flute blame the willows? The spring breeze does not reach the Yumen Pass.&quot; It wasn&#39;t until I arrived in Jingtai County, Gansu Province, that I learned there truly is a solitary city beneath the &quot;Ten Thousand-Ren Mountain.&quot;
This solitary city is a Ming Dynasty military relic called Yongtai City. Although 400 years old, it&#39;s still inhabited.

Surprisingly, there are several small villages within the solitary city.
[TeaDrinker]
Jingtai County, Gansu Province, is a relatively unknown small county. Yongtai County sits at the foot of the Helan Mountains, with rolling hills and the vast Gobi Desert stretching as far as the eye can see.
Because the ancient city has gates on all four sides, each with a gate tower, from an aerial view, the entire fortress resembles a giant turtle, crawling in a sea of ​​sand.
For this reason, this ancient Yongtai City has been aptly nicknamed &quot;Yongtai Turtle City.&quot; 🐢
Yongtai Ancient City is a large earthen fortress built for garrison defense during the Ming and Qing dynasties. Surrounded by a moat, it is considered a textbook example of an ancient Chinese military fortress.

The Yongtai site, with a history of over 400 years, was a garrison fortress in Gansu Province during the Ming and Qing dynasties, occupying a crucial strategic military position. Surprisingly, villagers still live within the ancient city, including a village called &quot;Wenxi Village.&quot;

The ancient city originally housed a complex of ancient buildings, including the Big Buddha Temple, the Pavilion of the Gods, the Jade Emperor Hall, and several archways. These buildings, a blend of Eastern and Western styles with a Gothic flair, have been designated a county-level cultural relic protection site. The Yongtai site holds significant value for the study of the Ming Dynasty&#39;s border defense system and the site selection and layout patterns of ancient cities.
🚗
It is reported that with the impending construction of the Heishanxia Reservoir on the Yellow River, the area where Yongtai Ancient City is located will become part of the reservoir, potentially submerging the fortress. So, if you want to see this 400-year-old desert turtle city, come early.

Location: Yongtai Village, Shitan Township, Jingtai County, Gansu Province.
The best vantage point for photographing Yongtai Turtle City is with a drone. You can capture the vast mountains in the distance, a solitary city suspended between heaven and earth, and a strange sense of loneliness arises.
This is the awe-inspiring power of history and culture.
It&#39;s a truly worthwhile place to visit.
Seize the opportunity to visit now while the crowds are still low. Once these historical sites fill up, they lose their charm and become less interesting.
[Cheers]
