Hongguang village in Jinta county, Jiuquan, became a vibrant hub of celebration as the Jiuquan City Rural Tourism and Jinta County Spring Blossom and Outing Festival began on April 3.
From an unexpected oasis and climbing tall dunes to millennia-old caves filled with murals and Buddhist statues, this city is rich with heritage, Richard Harris reports in Dunhuang.
This year's Spring Festival in Jiuquan will feature a dazzling array of over 150 cultural, tourism, and sports events across 10 major categories, lighting up Chinese New Year with festive cheer.
Jiuquan led all prefecture-level cities in Gansu province in the selection of new cultural and tourism landmarks, with 17 sites making the province's list of 100. The results were unveiled on Dec 5 at a cultural and tourism promotion event.
