Let Lanzhou become a gathering place for Chinese people from all over the world to return to their hometown, express their homesickness, and place their homesickness.

P3 In August 1984, the National Youth Geology Summer Camp erected a monument “Dedicated to the cradle of the Chinese nation - Mother Yellow River”.

When I was in primary school, I saw this on the cover of a history textbook, so I had a deep impression of it. When I heard that I was going on a business trip to Lanzhou, my first reaction was to go see the Yellow River Mother. How should I put it? It is smaller than I imagined. It is right by the Yellow River and belongs to Qilihe District. It only takes about ten minutes to see the whole journey. However, it is a landmark of the original Lanzhou and has great significance. It also expresses people's feelings for the Yellow River.

The Yellow River Mother Statue is made of granite to better reflect the color of the Yellow River and the skin color of the descendants of Yan and Huang, symbolizing the Yellow River Mother who has nurtured the Chinese nation's endless and indomitable spirit and the happy, healthy and strong Chinese descendants. The base of the statue is engraved with water ripples and fish patterns, which are derived from the original patterns of ancient Gansu painted pottery, reflecting Gansu's long history and culture.

The statue of Mother Yellow River, composed of "Mother" and "Baby Boy", symbolizes the mother Yellow River who nurtures the Chinese nation's endless vitality and is indomitable, and the happy, blessed and thriving Chinese descendants.

The Yellow River Mother Statue was created for He E in 1984. When I first saw the statue, it was much smaller than I had imagined (6 meters long, 2.2 meters wide, and 2.6 meters high). It was hidden in a corner of the park and was not very noticeable.

Tourists check in the landscape. Although there are many people, take a look at the Yellow River Mother Statue, take pictures from the front and side different angles, the mother's face is very kind. There are many vendors selling decorative necklaces nearby, bargain by yourself, it's easy to communicate.

Located on the bank of the Yellow River near Xiaoxihu Park, the Yellow River is the mother river of Lanzhou, and this sculpture also reflects the love of the people of Lanzhou for the Yellow River. It is recommended to start from here, walk east along the south bank of the Yellow River to Zhongshan Bridge, then cross Zhongshan Bridge and climb up to Baita Mountain in the north to enjoy the panoramic view of Lanzhou city.

There were still many people taking photos at the entrance of the statue. It is also a very famous statue, sculpted by the famous sculptor Ms. He E. This sculpture is smaller and warmer than I imagined. I imagined it to be more majestic and grand, and very large right in front of me, but it is actually quite small.

The sculpture was created by Ms. He E, a famous sculptor from Gansu. It is 6 meters long, 2.2 meters wide, 2.6 meters high, and weighs more than 40 tons. It consists of a "mother" and a "baby boy".

It is a landmark building, and there are so many people taking photos and checking in, you need to queue up.

Right next to the Yellow River, the park also has sheepskin rafts for riding, but looking at the surging Yellow River water, not many people dare to ride them.

There is a sheepskin raft rafting nearby, round-trip to Zhongshan Bridge, 80 yuan per person after bargaining, but at least 200 yuan is required for the boat to depart. It is off-season. I waited for more than ten minutes but no one else came to share the boat, so I had to give up.

Lanzhou is a city where the Yellow River runs through. The scenic spots along the Yellow River, the Yellow River Mother Statue, the Windmill Park, and the Zhongshan Bridge are all considered symbols of Lanzhou, but they are not very visible. They are nothing more than a viewing line. You can walk along the Yellow River and feel the nourishment and endless flow of the source of the mother river.

It is smaller than what you imagine, but it is a must-visit place in Lanzhou, with the rushing Yellow River next to it.

There are a lot of tourists, it seems to be a must-visit place for all groups. It is very ordinary, with only a small statue, and the whole place is messy, there is nothing to see.

On the Yellow River Scenic Line, there is a waterwheel park nearby, not far from Baimalan. The Zhongshan Iron Bridge and the Yellow River Mother Statue are both symbols of Lanzhou.

It's just average. It's 2 or 3 stops away from Zhongshan Bridge. It's just a statue.

Objectively speaking, the symbolic meaning is greater than the appreciation meaning. It’s just a check-in, please feel free to do as you please!

It feels average, not as big as I imagined. You can check it out when you go to Lanzhou. It's called the Mother River Sculpture Gallery, but it turns out to be just this kind of statue.

Along the Yellow River... Passing by and checking in...

Love for the motherland is the sentiment of every Chinese. But I feel that the sculpture is not grand enough and should be a little bigger.

A must-visit place when visiting Lanzhou, this landmark building has many people taking photos here.

Just to take a picture of this statue?

Quite a lot of groups come here to take photos and check in, which probably proves that they have been here.

My suggestion is to take a photo of the statue and then walk to the Yellow River to experience the scenery of the Yellow River!

When you come to Lanzhou, you must see the Yellow River. When you arrive at the Yellow River, you must see the Yellow River Mother Statue.

It is a check-in point in Lanzhou. The sculpture is not very big, and it is mainly symbolic. There are many people who come to take photos. We came early, and the army of tourists had not arrived yet. There are some small vendors selling snacks next to the sculpture, and there is nothing else.

The Mother River, the willow catkins flying in the sky, and the people exercising leisurely on the roadside all made me forget my fatigue. I walked for nearly two hours to see the big waterwheel and the Mother Statue, and then left with satisfaction. I also listened to the locals' introduction and went to Junle Ramen Restaurant to eat the local Lanzhou Ramen.

About 2km west of Zhongshan Bridge is the stone sculpture of the Yellow River Mother, but under the scorching sun, I was sweating like rain, and these 2km felt like walking 5km. There were many tea breaks on the shore, and locals sang Northwest folk songs, which was another scenery of the Yellow River.

The mother symbolizing the Yellow River has flowing hair, a kind look, a slight smile, and she raises her head and slightly bends her right arm, lying on her back on the waves.

It's just so-so. I thought it was quite big, but it's small in scale and can be considered a landmark. However, the whole Lanzhou seems to be very ordinary for tourism... I don't know whose child it is, so I can only take pictures like this... Otherwise there will be no space

A place where you can check in and take a look and leave

Just a sign that you've been here...

This landmark attraction is a must-visit, right by the Yellow River. The statue won a big award, but more importantly, it has a great significance! Take a photo!

I still have to check in at the local landmark attractions. In fact, it’s just a check-in to prove that I have been there.

The Yellow River Mother Statue is one of the landmark buildings in Lanzhou. It is not far from the Zhongshan Bridge and is only a 10-minute walk away! The sculpture is not big, and many people come to take photos. The main significance of this statue is its symbolic meaning. Although it is just a statue, you can still go and see it.

It is really a statue to check in "I have been here". Fortunately, if you go down the stairs, you will find a small pier where you can take a sheepskin raft, and a leisure place where you can drink tea and watch the Yellow River in a daze.

It looked like a small sculpture by the river. A tour guide happened to be explaining it nearby, and I finally understood the child's curly hair, ethnic diversity, etc.

There is just a statue on the bank of the Yellow River. From here you can walk along the river, passing the Waterwheel Expo Park and all the way to Zhongshan Bridge.

I don't know if it was because it was a weekend, but there were people doing all kinds of activities along the Yellow River. It's the off-season and there were basically no tourists. Most of the people who were free were locals. I felt very lucky to have seen the most authentic life of local people.

The locals were singing a Gansu folk song called "Hua'er" by the Yellow River. Those who liked to sing sang, those who liked to dance danced, and those who liked to play finger-guessing games and drink had fun on the side. That scene was very touching for a city dweller like me. When they saw me holding up my camera, they quickly lined up for me to take pictures. Their happiness was really enviable.

The mother river gave birth to Greater China, and the statue is exquisitely designed.

If possible, I want to hold my mother's hand forever.

A little small, not majestic enough, the symbolic meaning is greater

Extremely disappointed, I didn't expect the Yellow River Mother to be so small

I came here for the sake of sentiment, and the scenery at night is also good.

The Yellow River flows through so many places across the country, so how come Lanzhou has been able to grasp the title of "Mother Yellow River"?

It is not far from the "Zhongshan Bridge", and it takes more than 10 minutes to walk there~! The sculpture is not big, and many people come to take photos, so you must take photos when you arrive at Zhongshan Bridge~! The sculpture consists of a mother and a baby, symbolizing the "Mother of the Yellow River" and the "Descendants of China". It is already one of the iconic sculptures in Lanzhou and also represents the image of Lanzhou~! !
