Humans have flourished here
From the Shang Dynasty to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period
The Qiangrong people live here and live nomadically
However, Lanzhou has no system yet
It is also not included in administrative divisions
Qin is divided into 36 counties
The First Emperor ordered Meng Tian to lead 300,000 elite troops to attack the Xiongnu in the north
In the former land of Yiqu, Longxi County and Beidi County were placed
Lanzhou became a dependency of Longxi County
Officially entered the jurisdiction of the central government
Yuzhong County (around present-day Donggang Town, Chengguan District) was established.
Lanzhou ushered in the first immigration in history
Tens of thousands of people came to Yuzhong Tun to reclaim the border

During the reign of Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty
The youngest hussar general Huo went ill
Cross the Yellow River deep into the desert north to attack the hinterland of the Xiongnu
The veteran general Li Xi was ordered to find a ferry on the Yellow River
To counter the army
He chose Lanzhou, a gentle and narrow strip with parallel river valleys

Because it controls the four sides
Compared with Gongchang (present-day Longxi), it was closer to the front line
It is closer to the central government than Liangzhou

Zhengning Road Night Market
The CP of the kebab is not a liquor
More with the Yellow River beer
The appetizer is also indispensable to a piece of ma sanyang potato slices
Potato slices, cold soaked and hot cooked
Pour a large spoonful of oil on the spicy seeds
Light a fire on the tip of your tongue
Yellow River draft beer
The fire on the tip of the tongue is extinguished by a bowl of desserts
Dunhuang Li Guangxing boiled apricot skin water
Sweet pickles fermented from barley or barley
Sweet with freshness, degreasing and spicy
Peas added to the ash to make gray beans
Add dates and sugar for a sweet and pleasant taste
Gray beans
However, Lanzhou's most well-known dessert
Definitely milk egg mash
After becoming a hit in the documentary "Tip of the Tongue"
Half of Zhengning Road is full of stalls of "Ma Ye Egg Mash"
The mash tumbles and the milk scents
The eggs bloom in the pan into yellow and white egg flowers
There are also many dried fruit ingredients in the northwest
Raisins, peaches, peanuts, dried fruits, sesame seeds
It tastes soft, smooth and refreshing, sweet and slightly sour
Milk egg mash
And the face is the most dominant symbol of the city
The first impression of Lanzhou by outsiders
It is generally Lanzhou ramen all over the country
However, Lanzhou people will never recognize the existence of "ramen noodles"
There is only beef noodles in Lanzhou
That is, "cow big"
(Lanzhou ramen is actually the business of Qinghai people)
Ramen master
Beef noodles are the soul of Lanzhou people
Sold for two million bowls per day
Every morning always starts with "big bowl cattle"
Beef broth tumbles with a mellow aroma
The noodles in the master's hand collided with the board
The broth is bright and fragrant (yiqing)
Radish white net sweet (two white)
Chili oil is red (three red)
Coriander garlic seedlings bright green (four green)
Noodle Yellow Bright Strength Road (Five Yellow)
Beef noodles at one end, everything is done happily
Lanzhou is like this bowl of beef noodles
There is wheat in the Longdong and Hexi corridors
Beef on the Gannan Plateau
Chili peppers of Tianshui Gangu
Vegetables from the wilderness around Lanzhou
It balances the multi-ethnic diets of Han, Hui, Tibetan, Dongxiang and so on
And on the busy trade routes of the Northwest
Hot and convenient noodle soup
The best choice for a hurried passerby
It is a metaphor for the prosperity of the Silk Road in that year
Colorful in one
It's a lovely city
The history of the iron horse
Cultivated by Lanzhou people into a tasteful life
The noodle shop is crowded
Diners rambled loudly
The raucous breath of life
It's reassuring
A Lanzhou that is lit after a full meal of wine and rice
It is the satisfaction of neon and the spread of night
