The Summer of Zhangye is cool. Zhangye is a good place for summer holidays. It is not clod to see the sunrise and sunset in Danxia Scenic Areas. If it is just after the rain, you will have the chance to enjoy the unique beauty of Danxia. Travel in summer, you’d better bring a jacket when as the temperature is still low in morning and at night. Travel to Gannan, you need bring umbrella and rain boots, as the climate here is changeable.
Between July and August every year, there are a lot of event about horse racing and equestrian, which is very worth a visit. Mati Temple and Shandan Army Horse-breeding Farm are the two most popular attractions. Whether riding a stroll on the Mati Hill, or ride on pasture Benz, looking ahead, you can see green grass connecting with the blue sky, golden flowers are everywhere, very magnificent sight.
