Walk through the ancient city walls of Ganzhou and enter the former residence of Chiang Ching-kuo

"How many pedestrians wept in the midst of the clear river water under the Yugu Terrace. Looking northwest at Chang'an, I pity the countless mountains. The green mountains cannot hide the water, but after all, it flows in the east. In 1176, when Xin Qiji was a prison official in Jiangxi Province, he climbed up to Yuguotai and looked far away.
A thousand-year-old famous sentence has made a thousand-year-old famous building, but also to a historical and cultural city to add a lot of colour, Yu Quotai is located in Ganzhou ancient city wall, along the Ganzhou ancient city wall, in addition to Yu Quotai, there are many places worth a visit, Zaoer Lane, Jianchun Gate, ancient floating bridge, Chungchun Gate, eight mirrors, Turtle Tail Park, the former residence of Mr. Jiang Jingguo, Yu Quotai, Xijin Gate, this is what I strolled around Ganzhou ancient city wall for two hours This is what I got from my two-hour stroll around the ancient city walls of Ganzhou. Although Ganzhou is large, accounting for 23.6% of the province's area, and has many counties and cities, with two districts, 15 counties and one county-level city under its jurisdiction, the essence of its ancient city lies in the small area where the two waters of Zhanggong form the Ganjiang River, which is where the ancient city walls of Ganzhou are located.




Beneath Yuguotai are the ruins of the walls of the Imperial City of Ganzhou, once the government offices of Ganzhou's successive generations, the highest point in this part of Ganzhou's urban area being the nodal point for the Ganzhou Dragon Vein.
Starting and ending with the city walls, a quick tour of the ancient city of Ganzhou basically covers the essence of Ganzhou. In fact, in addition to the ancient city walls visible on the ground, there is also a great underground water conservation project underneath the ancient city of Ganzhou, which is the Fusou Ditch. It was built during the Northern Song Dynasty by Liu Yi, a water conservancy expert who served several times as the city's water chancellor, and is a mature and sophisticated ancient urban drainage system. It was built according to the layout of the streets and the topography of the city, and was built on the principle of partitioning the drainage system into two main drains. The two ditches are named "Fu Shou Ditch" because their alignment resembles the characters "Fu" and "Shou" in seal script. The ditches have survived more than 900 years of rain and wind, but are still intact and continue to serve as the main channel for the daily discharge of sewage for the residents of Ganzhou. The old people say that Ganzhou is a "floating city", and that it is in the shape of a tortoise, with its head in the south and its tail in the north, so that no matter how the river rises, Ganzhou can float with it. Whether it is the inscribed bricks on the city walls or the hidden underground fushou ditch, the ancient city of Ganzhou actually tells us that the meticulous and meritorious spirit of the ancient people really deserves to be studied.
