TIANSHUI

Tiānshuǐ (天水) is 3-4 hours southeast of Lanzhou by train, towards Xi'an. We visited: 
  1. Màijīshān Shíkū Buddhist Grottoes (麦积山石窟)
  2. Xiānrén'àn Nature Spot (仙人岸), which is close by to Maijishan. There are some nice walks through the hills, which take you by some interesting temples under the overhanging sandstone cliffs. 
  3. Fúxī Miào Temple (伏羲庙)
