Lanzhou is the capital of Gansu province in China. It's a city of almost 3 million people on the banks of the Yellow River. Geographically it's almost at the center of China, but historically it's considered to be in the northwest edge of the heart of China. Although Xian is sometimes considered the start of the Silk Road, but when you go west from Xian to Lanzhou, you will really feel you are getting out of China! There are many ethnicities of people living here, Han, Hui, Man, Tibetan are some of the main ones. Qinghai and Tibet is south of here, and Inner Mongolia is to the north.
