Foreign experts banquet

Every a year a banquet is hosted for all of the foreigners working in Lanzhou. This was a good chance for us delegates to meet other foreigners working in the city. We met some people who are working here with the Peace Corp. It is also at this Banquet that the Gansu Provincial Government grants the "Dunhuang Award" to foreigners in recognition of their contribution to the development of Gansu Province. This award has been granted every year since 1996. Unfortunately, I didn’t win but there is always next year!
