Minle County, Gansu Province, is under the jurisdiction of Zhangye City, Gansu Province. It is located in the southeast of Zhangye City, bordering Shandan County and Yongchang County to the east, Qilian County and Menyuan Hui Autonomous County, Qinghai Province to the south, Sunan Yugur Autonomous County to the southwest, and Ganzhou District, Zhangye City to the west and northwest. The county covers an area of 3,687.32 square kilometers. Minle County is a "key point" connecting Gansu Province and Qinghai Province, and has been the "throat" of the southern route of the eastern section of the Silk Road since ancient times. I stopped in Minle to experience the life of this quiet county. The county is very clean and not crowded. I went to the local museum.
