🏮 Step Back in Time — Danxiakou Cultural Tourism Town

Right next to Zhangye Colorful Danxia, Danxiakou Cultural Tourism Town (丹霞口文旅小镇) is where ancient charm meets modern leisure. Built to resemble a traditional Gansu market town, it’s filled with folk-style architecture, red lanterns, cobblestone streets, and lively shops selling local snacks, handicrafts, and souvenirs.

You can sample Zhangye specialties like hand-pulled noodles and beef hotpot, watch cultural performances, or simply soak in the vibrant, festive atmosphere — especially in the evenings when the whole town lights up. 🌟

It’s the perfect stop after a day exploring the Danxia landscapes — both for a taste of local culture and a good meal before heading back.

💡 Tips:
• Best visited late afternoon so you can enjoy both daytime strolling and the night lights.
• Some shops only accept mobile payment (WeChat Pay/Alipay).
• Wear comfy shoes — the streets are cobblestone.
