Scenic Spots Around Lanzhou | Erziwa Ridge

Here's a travel guide for the Erziwa Ridge scenic area: **Preparation** • Clothing: Due to unpredictable weather, even in summer, bring warm layers like windbreakers and fleece jackets. • Sun protection: Strong UV rays require sunscreen, sunglasses, and a sun hat. • Other essentials: Wear comfortable sports shoes for walking on trails and meadows; pack a power bank and camera to capture the moments. **Transportation** • Self-drive: From Lanzhou, take the Lanzhou South Expressway to the Wuma Expressway, then navigate to "Erziwa Ridge." The 100+ km journey takes about 2 hours. • Group tour: Join a local Lanzhou tour group for a hassle-free bus trip. **Attractions** • **Viewing Platform**: Climb the wooden boardwalk to the platform for misty views of Taizi Mountain, like a fairy-tale wonderland. • **Alpine Meadows**: Endless green meadows dotted with grazing livestock offer a serene escape. • **Taizi Mountain Snow Peak**: On clear days, admire the year-round snow-capped peak, glowing with sacred brilliance—a paradise for mountain lovers. • **Primeval Forest**: Dense, mysterious forests brim with tranquility and vitality along shaded trails. **Route Suggestion** Enter via Diaotan Village in Hezheng County, follow the Taizi Mountain Tourist Route past Songmingyan and Fatai Mountain, and end at Erziwa Ridge. Exit via Shuangcheng. **Food Recommendations** • **Hand-grabbed mutton**: Tender and flavorful, best enjoyed with salt and pepper. • **Liangpi (cold noodles)**: Silky texture with spicy-sour sauce, a local delicacy. • **Sweet fermented barley**: A refreshing, mildly alcoholic drink made from barley or wheat. **Accommodation** • **Yunshang Hezhou**: Stay in charming wooden cabins with scenic surroundings and relaxing boardwalks. • **Local homestays**: Experience rural life in Hezheng County or nearby villages for an authentic cultural immersion.
