Water Wheel Park

Lanzhou is the only city centre in China that the Yellow River flows through and these massive wooden copies of irrigation devices alongside the river give a taste of what once lined the banks. They have been turned into a pleasant, if small, riverside park. Sheep-skin rafting (one way/return ¥60/80) is available from inside the park.
