Linxia: Brick carving and river

Linxia is a stop worth making a special stop in Hua'er Linxia. In one day, between Bafang Shishixiang and Bingling Temple, encounter the unique atmosphere of Linxia.

The first impression Linxia gives is almost always from the Eight Lanes and Thirteen Alleys. When it actually appears before your eyes, the imagination in the picture suddenly gains weight, and the journey officially begins from that moment.

When it comes to Linxia, locals usually mention Bingling Temple first. Only after experiencing it do you realize that landmarks are never isolated scenery, but the gateway to an entire stretch of life.

The Yellow River hides another side of Linxia. With less crowding from tourists and more daily warmth, you suddenly feel like you've briefly become one of the people here.

If you have the energy, go visit the Red Garden. There are no standard answers there, only your own pace, just filling your itinerary perfectly.

Linxia taught me one thing: you don't have to chase after every scenic spot, just as Bafang Shisanxiang taught me—the best scenery is always where you're willing to stop and take a good look.
