Lanzhou Through the Lens of Foreign Media
From September 20 to 21, the 2026 International Media Tour in Gansu brought foreign journalists to Lanzhou, offering an international perspective on this Yellow River city's high-quality development in culture-tourism integration and industrial transformation.
First stop: Lanzhou Danxia Geological Park. Foreign journalists captured the raw majesty of the land through their lenses and walked across a geological wonder shaped over millions of years.
At Duzhe Publishing Group, the delegation learned how this "national magazine" — guided by tradition and innovation — is undergoing systemic reform, evolving from a print publication into a full-media cultural service platform.
A bowl of Lanzhou beef noodles connects the world. At a hands-on session, foreign journalists experienced the craftsmanship behind this national intangible cultural heritage and savored the essence of a century-old craft.
From taste to health, Lanzhou's industrial narrative continues. At Gansu Longshen Rongfa Pharmaceutical Co.,Ltd., journalists witnessed how a small factory grew into a force in Gansu's pharmaceutical sector, and felt the pulse of the province's booming health industry.
At Lanzhou New Area Modern Agricultural Park, smart cultivation and flower exports became the keywords. In this cold and arid land of the northwest, technology is injecting strong momentum into modern agriculture.
From Danxia to Duzhe, from a bowl of noodles to a dose of medicine, from a single flower to an open story — Lanzhou is writing tradition and modernity, daily life and innovation into one narrative.
