Grand Canyon. By train again. This time from Lanzhou to Zhangye. A tiny town of 1,4 mil inhabitants 😅😂😘 – more than in Copenhagen. I had never heard of it, and its not even in my loved NomadMania. There are two huge destinations in this area though, where the Chinese themselves flock to experience the Grand Canyon and the the Rainbow Mountains.

Grand Canyon

The nature is like Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan … and Arizona. A real Grand Canyonwhere we could decide between different routes of approx 3 hours each combining hikes, busses, camels and even a 15 metres tall latter.

The closest hike ends on a platform that is so Chinese. Its the love platform with hearts on the rails where lovers can buy small signs to write names and wishes on. Lots of selfies and lovebirds.
