Who wrote the word "Lanzhou" in Lanzhou Railway Station? Please answer! ! !

The word "Lanzhou Station" was inscribed by Mr. Zhang Bangyan, a famous calligrapher.

The entrances and exits of Lanzhou Railway Station are all written by Zhang Bangyan, who is also very prestigious in the calligraphy world and is known as the "father of bamboo slips". Standing in Lanzhou, you will find the word "Lan", the first horizontal line is the longest, but when writing Chinese characters, the longest word "Lan" should be the last horizontal line.

In fact, the reason why the word "Lan" in Lanzhou is long and short is mainly because after liberation, many fonts have been standardized into simplified characters, including the word "Lan" in Lanzhou, which is very different from the traditional writing in history. Therefore, calligraphers who have just changed from traditional Chinese characters to simplified Chinese characters will write many "non-standard" and "non-unified" writing forms at this time, just like the languages of the six countries were not unified at that time.
