Located in the Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture of Gansu Province, Xiahe is a typical Tibetan area. Here you can deeply feel the customs and religious culture of the Tibetans though the place doesn't belong to Tibet. Only when you come here in person can you better understand it. Xiahe isa place really worth visiting for every visitor.
Founded in the Western Qin Dynasty, Bingling Temple Caves had been expanded over the ages and it has a history of more than 1,600 years. As a site of the “Silk Road: Chang'an-Tianshan Corridor Road Network”, it was successfully inscribed on the World Heritage List at the UNESCO World Heritage Committee’s 38th session held in Doha, Qatar on June 22, 2014.
This May I had a Silk Road tour with our honored customers from abroad. The over twenty days’ tour is such a great experience, left so many unforgettable memories. We chose Lanzhou as our starting point this time since we visited Xi’an before.
Since the “One Belt, One Road” initiative proposed, the Silk Road has received more attention, so does the glorious landscapes along it. The magnificent desert, the marvelous grottos and frescoes, the mystic ancient tombs and ancient city ruins, the tranquil alpine lakes, etc. surely will impress visitors. If you want to divorce from the hustle and bustle of life, you may as well take a Silk Road tour.
