Where is the fun in Jiuquan?

Traveling to Jiuquan, the famous scenic spot is Hu Quan Park outside the East Gate of Jiuquan City. There is a well in the park with sweet spring water called Jiuquan. Many legends about Jiuquan in history originated from this. The story of Huo Qubing, the general of the Han Dynasty, who rewarded his soldiers with royal wine in spring was built here. The famous poet Li Bai "If heaven doesn't love wine, there is no Brewmaster in heaven;" If the land does not love wine, there should be no Jiuquan in the land. " This poem has been sung to this day. Jiuquan spring water flows all the year round, surrounded by clear streams and lakes, weeping willows are shaded, birds are singing and flowers are fragrant, tourists are weaving, and blue waves are rippling, which is better than Jiangnan scenery.

Another cultural relic of Jiuquan is Jiuquan Bell and Drum Tower, which is located in the center of the city. It has a history of hundreds of years, magnificent and well preserved. The abutment of the Drum Tower is made of blue bricks with arches around it. The words "China Prison in the east, Yiwu in the west, Qilian in the south and the desert in the north" are engraved on the blue brick above the archway, which is vigorous and powerful.

The luminous cup made of jade in Jiuquan is famous all over the country for its exquisite workmanship. "Glowing glass of grape wine, want to drink pipa immediately rush, drunk in the sand without laughing. You have fought several wars since ancient times. " Liangzhou refers to this cup.
