Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County
Tianzhu Tibetan Autonomous County is administered by Wuwei City. There are many natural scenic spots well worth visiting, such as Tianzhu Small Three Gorges and Shimengou Grassland Park. The Tianzhu Small Three Gorges are famed for unique gorge landscape. It includes Zhuchaxia Gorge, Jinshaxia Gorge and Xianmingxia Gorge. Among them, the Zhuchaxia Gorge is the longest. The peaks there seem extraordinarily steep. Limpid stream flows through the gorge. And the pinetrees cover the gorge very densely. The Shimengou Grassland Park, as the name implies, is a park built on the basis of natural grassland. There, the sky is bluer and the grass is greener. Cattles enjoy the soft sunshine and eat grass with great relish. Everything there seems relaxed and comfortable.
Additionally, if time is not pressing, you can go to Tiantishan Grotto (also called Big Buddha Temple, Dafosi in Chinese) located 50 kilometers (31 miles) south of the city, or Ruianbao (Ruian Manor) situated in Minqin County, Wuwei City. The grotto, made in Dongjin Period, lies on the lofty snow-caped Mt. Tiantishan. A big Buddha sits in the grotto against the mountain. It's the witness of Buddhism introduced through Wuwei to the inner land of ancient China. And Ruianbao, built in 1938, actually is a landlord's manor. It's one of the most unique and best-preserved manors of China.
