I was shocked to find a deserted Danxia in Lanzhou, which is free and great for taking photos.
Who knows, I found a deserted and niche Danxia in Lanzhou
No one, great for taking photos, no admission fee, free!!
But public transportation is not convenient, suitable for self-driving
It is about 50km from Lanzhou Airport✈️
You can visit it on the way when the plane✈️ lands or before the plane✈️ leaves

📝 Travel tips
1⃣️ The Merlot color system, white system, black system and Danxia color match well and are easy to take photos
2⃣️ The temperature difference in Lanzhou is large, and it has started to cool down recently, so keep warm
3⃣️ The Danxia here is very spectacular, and the area is also relatively large, which is very suitable for flying drones to watch the magnificent scenery. Some shots can only be taken with drones
4⃣️ If you want to take photos on the island in the center of the lake, you need to take a small boat🚢. The small boat may not be there, depending on the situation

Kushui Danxia
Kushui Danxia is located in Kushui Town, Yongdeng County, Lanzhou City, Gansu Province, also known as Shuiying Danxia. It is a Danxia landform, with the main geological relics being Danxia and colored hills. The terrain is undulating and layered. Kushui Danxia is named after the bitter water in the area, and hence the Danxia is also called Kushui Danxia. It is dominated by a brownish-red hue, covering the mountains and fields, rich in color. Compared with the loess high slopes of the northwest, it has similarities, but also clear differences. Similarities include the continuous gullies and winding paths, but what's different is that the use of color here in Danxia is bolder, with more unrestrained contrasting colors, reflecting the vitality of youth.
🟡️ It's an hour's drive from downtown Lanzhou, where there is a rarely visited Danxia landform, with no trace of human activity, all the work of nature, don't miss it if you pass by‼️
✅ It's right next to the Apricot Flower Village Ink Danxia Scenic Area, but no admission fee is required
✅ The Danxia is colorful, with layers interlaced, the reddish-brown appearance gives a 🔥-like passionate feeling, the white lines on the mountain peaks are just like 🍦 ice cream
✅ There is a reservoir next to it, some villagers have built a fishing base here, in front of the most photogenic 'Ice Cream Cone' shaped Danxia peak there is a small island surrounded by a lake, in winter when the lake freezes people can even walk on it‼️
📍|Location: Lanzhou City Bitter Water Town Self-driving Camp, 70km from Lanzhou Airport
🚘|Road conditions: The section near the Danxia is a dirt road, the road is quite narrow, it's not easy to pass cars, cars can pass, after arriving the car can be parked at the fishing base, there is a vacant lot for parking
📸|Photography: It is recommended to shoot on sunny days, the sun shining on the Danxia makes it very red, if possible, definitely bring a drone, the bird's eye view is extremely spectacular~
