Jiayuguan is really worthy of the "world's first Xiongguan", the wall is high and deep, the city corner is countless enemy buildings, the inner city area is vast, there is a steep Wengcheng on both sides of the east and west, it seems that there are thousands of soldiers, when the war is really the enemy's burial place.
Jiayuguan is strangled by the Hexi Corridor (East-West), so there are fortifications on both sides of Chengguan, which isolates the direct contact between the inner city and the outside, and is an important part of the ancient city defense.
The two Yongchengs in Jiayuguanguan City are very typical layout of ancient city pools. From the top to the bottom, the layout is quite large and even a bit empty. The Great Wall has a long history and should be well preserved.
The Guancheng of Jiayuguan, the Great Wall, consists of the inner city, the outer city and the city, forming three lines of defense. The outer city is also called Wengcheng, divided into two Wengcheng, which is the first gate for people from the west to enter the middle land, and then they can enter the customs.
The word Chaozong above the Dongguan City Gate Cave means that the passage of the official has a court in his heart. The city is in a funnel shape. Some people on the city wall observe the situation below and there is no dead corner. The officials and envoys passed here with customs clearance Wenzong, and the pavilion above is a secondary verification office. If the spies enter the gate, the people above will find his behavior abnormal and dispose of it. Dongguan City is also the last line of defense to prevent foreign troops from invading, with a hanging door falling and sealing the gate, shooting the enemy soldiers who rushed in. Xiyu City through the Huiji Gate, above the attic behind the platform placed a brick, called Dingcheng brick.
Jiayuguan East and West two cities layout is strict, Dongguan City Gate Tower brows engraved the word "chaozong", indicating that although the officials of the past court have traveled far "pole side", they still do not forget the court and king. In the opposite Xiyu City, the door engraved the word "will be pole". It means that the princes, eunuchs, business travelers, and friends from the western region meet here, passing by here, and paying tribute to the Central Plains Dynasty. Xiyu City also split the south of the gate, not directly connected to the inner city gate, making the Guancheng more solemn and deep, and becoming a defense line in the inner city.
Dongguan City and Xiguan City are located in the Jiayuguan Guancheng Scenic Area, and are also the main points of view of the Jiayuguan Great Wall. Dongguan City has a "First Pass in the World" plaque, which is a three-story high wooden Xieshan-style attic. It is very bold and is a unique place to take pictures. Xiyu City is the gateway of Jiayuguan, and the vast Gobi desert and endless Bohai Sea are out. Today, the exit here is a place for outdoor activities. Horse riding, camel riding, go-karting are the main amusement projects. Yucheng is an extremely important part of the Great Wall defense system. Surrounded by tall walls, there are hundreds of mouths on the walls. Once the outermost gate is closed and the enemy is trapped in the city, there is only a road to death, and there is still a unilateral massacre, which we often see in film and television dramas. The two cities do not have a common connection, each has its own road. Below the city of Xiyu, there is also a stall, which is specially made to create customs clearance Wenyu. You can write your own name on it, write down the time, stamp it, and keep it as a souvenir. Tongcheng is also a good place to escape the sun. Jiayuguan's Yucheng is not the same as other places, the main appearance color and some bricks. Previously it was completely earth city, now it is brick city.
