2025 Weiyuan Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in May)

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

With the beginning of summer, spring is not yet over, and May is the most beautiful time of the year. At this time, why not come to Dingxi's niche "Wizard of Oz" for a romantic early summer date! Zheyang Mountain – A Primitive Secret Realm Hidden in the Mountains Zheyang Mountain is between 2,200m and 2,800m above sea level and is named because "the sun is blocked by the mountain at sunrise." It integrates valleys, forests, secluded pools, and waterfalls, and is dominated by karst landform landscapes, with canyon, Danxia, and karst landform landscapes. The park is rich in layered profile relics, structural relics, and fossil relics, and is known by experts as a rare sinkhole-type tourism and adventure resort in Northwest China. Stepping into the stream, you will feel cool instantly. The natural breeze and spring water make people feel cool from the inside out. Walking along the two tourist routes of East Creek and West Creek, you seem to be in a flowing landscape painting. You may encounter mysterious karst caves at the corner, and you may see magnificent Danxia cliffs when you look up. Zheyang Mountain not only has beautiful natural scenery, but also contains profound cultural heritage. The ancient inscriptions on the mountain complement the natural landscape, adding a lot of mystery and long-standing cultural atmosphere to this landscape. Guiqing Mountain – The "Little Mount Hua" in Central Gansu Guiqing Mountain, historically known as "Guiqing Wonderland," is composed of two scenic spots: Guiqing Mountain and Guiqing Gorge. It is a national 4A-level tourist attraction and a national forest park, and is known as "Little Mount Hua." The Broken Stream Immortal Bridge in the scenic area flies over the deep gorge between the two mountains, like a long rainbow lying on the waves, thrilling and spectacular. Standing on the bridge and looking down at the deep gorge, you will feel your heart beating faster, and you will also be impressed by the wisdom of the ancients. Guiqing Gorge is 8 km long from north to south and only 60m wide from east to west. The peaks on both sides are lined with strange rocks. The stream at the bottom of the valley is gurgling and crystal clear. The stream shuttles between the moss-covered stones, playing a melodious movement. The wildflowers on the banks of the stream are blooming wantonly and are colorful, adding a bright color to the canyon. Climbing to the top of the mountain, the view is suddenly clear. Looking far away, the rolling mountains are looming in the sea of clouds, just like a magnificent ink painting. The Zen forest on the top of the mountain is a major feature of Guiqing Mountain. The ancient trees are tall and thick, straight into the sky, covering the sky and the sun. The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, forming golden beams of light, adding a bit of mystery to this mountain forest. Shouyang Mountain – A Place Where History and Nature Blend Shouyang Mountain is located 34 km southeast of Weiyuan County, echoing Lianfeng Mountain from afar. At the end of the Shang Dynasty and the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty, Bo Yi and Shu Qi, the second princes of the Guzhu Kingdom, gave way to each other for the throne. They were ashamed to eat Zhou millet and lived in seclusion here until they starved to death. Their noble character made Shouyang Mountain famous. At the foot of the main peak, the tombs of Bo Yi and Shu Qi lie quietly, with tombstones inscribed with "Teachers of a Hundred Generations" and "Tomb of Bo Yi and Shu Qi, Hermits of the Shang Dynasty" by Zuo Zongtang, the Governor of Shaanxi and Gansu of the Qing Dynasty, exuding a solemn atmosphere under the shade of green pines and cypresses. Here, the altitude is between 2,186m and 2,509m. The mountains are majestic and towering, and the mountains and forests are lush. Walking along the winding path, you are surrounded by dense forests, with interlaced branches and leaves. The sunlight shines through the gaps, forming golden spots, like a dreamlike stage. The air in the mountains is as fresh as if it has been washed, with a faint fragrance of flowers and plants. Every breath is like a thorough SPA for the lungs. Nanping Mountain – Forest Oxygen Bar and Peony Feast Nanping Mountain is the barrier in the south of Lintao. It is named because the mountain is as high as a barrier. The average altitude is 2,800m. It is the real scene of "Snow on Nan Mountain," one of the famous "Tao Yang Eight Scenic Spots." Here, the forest coverage rate is high, and the mountains stretch to the end of the field of vision. The content of negative oxygen ions is high. It is a veritable forest oxygen bar. Walking in it is like being in a natural green oxygen bar, and the body and mind can be greatly relaxed. In May, the peonies in Nanping Mountain have quietly bloomed, with a variety of colors and a full garden of national beauty. The red ones are like fire, the pink ones are like rosy clouds, and the white ones are like snow. One by one, cluster after cluster, they are vying for beauty and are dazzling. Being in the peony bushes is like walking into a dreamlike world, making people intoxicated and reluctant to leave. This early summer, let's wander in the mountains and rivers together!

Go to Zhayang Mountain, see a different mountain, and enjoy the tranquility Nine bends of shading, ten miles of art gallery, unique landforms, cultural blessing, cure the summer heat, and enjoy the tranquility. Located in Dacaotan Township, Zhang County, Dingxi, Zhayangshan National Forest Park is a three-hour drive from Lanzhou. Along the way, you will pass the watershed and Shuangshimen, and encounter many beautiful scenery. It was windy and cold going up the watershed, but it was worth it to watch the clouds floating among the mountains. Arriving at Zhayang Mountain, the landscape is unique and it is also a good place to escape the summer heat. It is divided into Dongxi and Xixi. Most people go to Xixi, which is dominated by karst, with Danxia and karst landforms. The mountains are steep, the canyons are deep, the forests are lush and the grass is abundant, and there are strange peaks. There are gurgling streams and waterfalls all the way, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. There are many scenic spots, including the Poetry Cliff, where many inscriptions by celebrities from the Song and Ming dynasties add to the poetic atmosphere. There are also Three Drunken Stones, Santan Waterfall and One Line Sky. Simian Cliff is the center of the scenic area, also known as Jinqian Cliff. Four towering peaks outline a diamond-shaped sky, like a copper coin. We strolled along the way, stopped here and there, listened to the sound of the stream, and two hours passed quickly. When you reach the ladder, those who are not in good physical condition can return. It is too steep, 1,000 meters long, with a 60-degree slope and 1,850 steps. I gritted my teeth and thought that since I was already here, I might as well continue climbing. But halfway up I began to regret it because it was too tiring for my legs. But once you climb to the highest point and enter the South Gate of Heaven, reaching the mouth of the canyon where one person can pass, you will suddenly feel enlightened and relieved. On the alpine meadows, cattle and sheep roam leisurely. If you ride down the mountain on horseback, there is an additional charge. If you are physically fit, you can go down the mountain by yourself. The scenery along the way is beautiful, and you can see the terraced fields on the opposite hillside. The price/performance ratio of Shade Mountain is high, and the ticket price is 40, which is a reasonable price. It cost 120 RMB to ride down the mountain. The locals said there were cars going down the mountain, but I didn't see any. After having a big plate of chicken, you can go back and have another satisfying weekend.

Due to inconvenient transportation, it used to be a poor village. Today, with the support of the local government, the villagers of Yuangudui can finally sell the lambs they raise and the agricultural products they grow with great effort all over the country! Today, in Yuangutai Village, cement roads run smoothly in and out of the village. The newly built two-story buildings and freshly painted old houses are clean and tidy, a complete departure from the dilapidated and dirty scene of the past. Many young people like us come here to visit, and this small village is gradually becoming known to more city people. There is a sea of ​​flowers in the village. It is just the right season to go there. Many newlyweds take wedding photos here. There are also many small second floors and small "villas" that provide accommodation in homestays. The prices range from economical to light luxury. You can choose according to your preferences. There is a small parent-child farm where you can bring your children to experience rural life on weekends. Of course, what makes this place popular is also the destination of my trip - Shengyuan Villa Sika Deer Breeding Base. This is the fairy place I mentioned, known as the Little "Nara" of Gansu. The sika deer in the park are all on the mountain and move freely beside the streams. The deer here are very docile and not afraid of strangers. They will not attack people if you feed and touch them normally. However, do not bring food to feed the deer yourself. There is an old man at the door. The entrance fee to the deer farm is 10 yuan per person.

As the last wisp of winter chill dissipated under the warm spring sun, I decided to follow the call of nature and embark on a unique journey. This time, I chose the famous Shuangshimen Scenic Area in Weiyuan County to experience the fun of spring camping. 【Preparation】 Preparations before a trip always make people feel both excited and nervous. After careful research and preparation, I carefully selected the appropriate gear for spring outdoor activities, as well as some personal items. Of course, don’t forget to bring your camera to record every moment of this close contact with nature. 【Departure】 Early in the morning, when the first ray of sunlight broke through the clouds, my friend and I set off and drove towards Shuangshimen. The scenery along the way gradually changes from the hustle and bustle of the city to the tranquility of the countryside, and then to the magnificence of the mountains. Peach and pear blossoms along the way are in full bloom, filling the air with spring. 【Camping】 Arriving at Shuangshimen, we chose a location close to the stream and sheltered from the wind to set up our tent. As the tent supports are firmly inserted into the ground, a sense of awe and closeness to nature arises spontaneously. [Exploration] The mountains here are undulating, the streams are gurgling, and the ecology is diverse. We walked along the winding path through the dense woods, occasionally seeing hares and squirrels running around, feeling the vitality and vigor of spring. 【Enjoyment】 In the afternoon, we returned to the camp and enjoyed a simple but delicious lunch that we cooked ourselves. After the meal, some people were fishing by the stream, some were reading on the grass, and I picked up my camera to record this beautiful moment. 【Farewell】 In the blink of an eye, the camping time is coming to an end. After packing up our equipment, we did not leave in a hurry, but chose to stay a little longer in this beautiful place. Sitting quietly in front of the tent, watching the outlines of the distant mountains gradually become clear in the morning sun, my heart is filled with gratitude for nature and longing for the future journey. 【Summary】 On the way back, I couldn’t help but reminisce about all the good things this trip brought me. The beauty of Shuangshimen lies not only in its mountains and rivers, but also in the fact that it allows people to slow down, talk with nature, and communicate with their souls. Camping in spring is not only a choice of travel method, but also a reflection of life attitude. This spring camping trip to Shuangshimen in Weiyuan is undoubtedly a baptism of the soul and a pursuit of the true beauty of life. I share this travelogue on Qunar.com in the hope that it can provide a reference for friends who want to get closer to nature. I also look forward to more discoveries and touches on my next trip.
