From the Hanyu Pinyin romanization of the Mandarin 甘肅 /甘肃 (Gānsù).

proper noun Kansu · Kansuh · Kan-suh · Kan-su

A province in northwestern China. Capital: Lanzhou. This is Lanzhou, the old Silk Road outpost that has matured into a metropolis of almost 4 million as the capital of Gansu province in China’s still-poor northwest. And as your lungs can attest, it is one of the most polluted cities in the country.
