Last updated 2026-11-15 — Ancient Yellow River FerryThe Ancient Yellow River Ferry is located in Guanting Town in the southern part of the county. Historically known as "Linqin Pass," it was one of the key crossing points connecting Gansu and Qinghai provinces. In the fifth year of the Daye era of the Sui Dynasty (609 AD), Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui once entered Qinghai from this area. In the past, crossing to the other side relied on sheepskin rafts. After liberation, a large boat approximately 15 meters long and 10 meters wide was used for ferrying, capable of carrying up to a hundred people and trucks. A reinforced concrete bridge has now been built at the site. The ruins of the ancient ferry remain.
