祁连山地处青藏高原东北部，这里地形复杂，地貌多样，既有高耸入云的山峰，也有广袤无垠的草原。祁连山海拔较高，山顶常年积雪，洁白的雪覆盖在叠嶂的山峰上，圣洁而美丽。
The Qilian Mountains are located in the northeastern part of the Tibetan Plateau. With its complex terrain and diverse landscapes, it features towering peaks that pierce the sky and vast, boundless grasslands. The Qilian Mountains have a high elevation, with snow covering the mountaintops year-round. The pristine white snow blankets the jagged peaks, pure and beautiful.
祁连山草原被誉为“天然氧吧”，草原丰茂，绿意盎然。站在山顶俯瞰，一片辽阔的绿色海洋展现在眼前，令人心旷神怡。草原上牛羊成群，悠闲地吃着草，构成了一幅宁静和谐的画面。
The Qilian grasslands are known as a "natural oxygen bar", where the lush grass flourishes, and everything is vividly green. Standing atop the mountains and looking down, a vast sea of green stretches before you, providing a sense of refreshment. The grasslands are teeming with cattle and sheep, leisurely grazing on the grass, forming a peaceful and harmonious picture.
对于生活在祁连山下的人们来说，祁连山的冰川融水和山区降水形成了祁连山水系，这些水流在山间宽谷盆地汇集成河，甘肃的河西走廊地区提供了宝贵的水资源。同时，祁连山还作为一道天然的生态屏障，阻挡了沙漠的南侵，保护了甘肃及周边地区的生态环境。这也是为什么它会被称为甘肃的“母亲山”。
For the people living at the foot of the Qilian Mountains, the glacial meltwater and precipitation from the mountains have formed the Qilian Mountain water system. These waters gather into rivers in the wide valleys and basins between the peaks, providing valuable water resources for the Hexi Corridor region of Gansu. At the same time, the Qilian Mountains serve as a natural ecological barrier, preventing the southern spread of the desert and protecting the ecological environment of Gansu and the surrounding areas. This is why the Qilian Mountains are known as the "Mother Mountain" of Gansu.
