Morning visit to Gansu Provincial Museum (closed on Mondays), the biggest comprehensive museum in Gansu province. It is one of the best sights in the city and a visit is well worthwhile. Built in 1956, the museum covers a total area of 18,000 square meters (about 4 acres). After salat prayer at Xiguan Mosque, you will be transferred to the Waterwheel Garden. Built in 1994, the garden is located by the Yellow River. In the garden, tourists can experience crossing the river on a sheepskin raft, which is the most primeval ferrying tool in the northwest region of the Yellow River. Visit Iron Bridge of Yellow River. The late Qing Government built this first iron bridge over the upper reaches of the Yellow River in 1907 under the proposal of local officers in Lanzhou and Gansu and with the help of a Germany businessman. All materials, even the rivets, were transported from Germany to China using ships, trains, carts and any other means possible. The name of the bridge was changed to Zhongshan Bridge (Zhongshan is the Chinese name of Dr. Sun Yat-sen) in 1942, to commemorate Dr. Sun Yat-sen. Then, you will spend some time at White Pagoda Mountain, famous for its white pagoda built during the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368). Legend has it that the White Pagoda was built in honor of a well-known Tibetan Lama who died of an illness in Lanzhou when on his way to Mongolia as representative of the leader of Sakyapa in order to meet Genghis Khan. The white pagoda, 17 meters high, has a round foundation and seven floors. Tourists enjoy an excellent bird-eye view of Lanzhou from the park.
