🌟 Must-know historical anecdotes:
🔹Dingcheng Brick: A brick on the eaves platform behind the gate tower of the West Weng City. It is said to be the extra brick left over by the craftsmen who built the pass through calculation, claimed to be placed by immortals, and has existed since the Ming Dynasty!
🔹Ice Path for Transporting Stones: The stones used for building the pass tower were from Heishan and were too heavy to carry. The phrase 'Ice Path for Transporting Stones' fell from the sky, so the craftsmen poured water on the road in winter to make ice, which allowed them to transport the stones successfully!
🔹Goats Carrying Bricks: The construction of the higher city tower was difficult for human and horse power, so a shepherd boy hung the bricks on the goats' backs, lightly patted the goats, and they easily carried the bricks up the tower, which the craftsmen then imitated!
🔹Striking Stone and the Swallows' Cry: A pair of swallows built a nest at Rouyuan Gate. One day, the gate closed early, the female swallow returned, but the male swallow died hitting the wall as it could not enter. The female swallow died of grief, and the 'jiu jiu' cry of the swallows is said to be heard to this day!
