Dingxi Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)

Guide to the tourist attractions of the Weihe River Source in Dingxi

If you have already experienced the beautiful scenery of the Weihe River Source in summer with its green mountains, clear waters, and cascading waterfalls, then I strongly recommend you to revisit this magical land in winter. With just a snowfall, the Weihe River Source turns into a silver-white ice and snow kingdom, allowing you to experience a different winter style. 🌨️ The Weihe River Source is located in Hongxia Village, Wuzhu Town, Weiyuan County, Dingxi City. This is the source of the Weihe River, originating from the Bird and Mouse Mountain southwest of Weiyuan County. The Weihe River stretches for 50 kilometers within the scenic area, 160 kilometers from Lanzhou and only 20 kilometers from Weiyuan County, with very convenient transportation. In summer, the vegetation here is lush, the grass is green, the scenery is ever-changing, sometimes surrounded by mountains and rivers, sometimes with steep terrain, and waterfalls cascading, showing the beauty of nature's ecology. 🌨️ In the winter Weihe River Source, the entire canyon seems to be covered with a layer of pure white ice and snow. The ice waterfalls here are all formed by the freezing of streams or waterfalls in the mountains. They hang on the cliffs, flow between the cliffs, attach to the treetops, or hide by the stream. They are like jade belts and jade pillars, and they are as clear and transparent as stalactites. Coupled with various snow sculptures interspersed among them, it makes people intoxicated and forget to return. 🌨️ In recent years, Weiyuan County has fully utilized the unique natural ecological landscape of the Weihe River Source to create a series of different forms of snow scenes, ice waterfalls, ice hangings, ice sculptures and other winter and spring tourism projects. These projects not only attract many tourists and photography enthusiasts to watch the snow scene and shoot works, but also greatly promote the transformation of the tourism industry in Weiyuan County from 'summer and autumn hot' to 'year-round constant temperature'. Every year's new attractions and new projects are refreshing, bringing endless surprises and expectations to tourists. 🌨️ So, why not revisit the Weihe River Source in winter, feel the silver-wrapped ice and snow world, and experience the visually stunning feast. Here, you will have close contact with nature and feel its magical charm.

You won't know how beautiful it is until you go there| Visited the life I've been longing for and met my old friend Xipo again. The entire homestay is surrounded by mountains, and the picturesque scenery is hidden in the deep mountains. The homestay retains the local characteristic yellow mud outer wall and red tile roof, and it is very Xipo. The food adheres to Xipo's purpose to fatten you up, all are home-cooked dishes cooked by local aunts. As for fun, I highly recommend going to Shuangshimen. Don't be confused by the simplicity of the entrance of the scenic spot. Boldly go inside, the road conditions are not very good, and the car is parked at the first mountain stone. Walking in will have a different experience, wading through the river, single-plank bridge, after climbing and wading, you can welcome the end of hardship, it's so beautiful. The temperature difference between day and night is still quite large now, so you still need to bring some thick clothes. Pay attention to sun protection during the day, and it will be a bit cold in the shade. Every aspect reflects the meticulous and warm Northwest sentiment. As Xipo said, because of love, so rush, because of resonance, so gather
