Xi'an Hanzhong·Shimen Plank Road·Vibrant in Spring

Shimen Plank Road | The only existing authentic copy of Wei Wang Cao Cao In the embrace of Qinling Mountains and Bashan Mountains, there is an ancient road carrying a rich history - Shimen Plank Road. It is like a ribbon of time, winding between the mountains, connecting the past and the present. Looking back on the long river of history, the Baoxiade Road where the Shimen Plank Road is located had already started its legendary chapter as early as the pre-Qin period. At that time, the ancients tried to break through the natural barrier of the Qinling Mountains through arduous exploration, which laid the groundwork for later development. King Huiwen of Qin sent Sima Cuo to attack Shu. This road became an important channel for close connection between Qin and the Bashu region, and witnessed the rise and expansion of a country. During the Chu-Han Contention, Liu Bang was named King of Han and went to Hanzhong to establish his country. In order to confuse Xiang Yu, he burned the plank road leading from Hanzhong to Guanzhong. However, this was just a strategic disguise. Not long after, Han Xin led the Han army to "openly repair the plank road and secretly pass through Chencang", successfully captured Guanzhong, and laid a solid foundation for the establishment of the Han Dynasty. This history has made the Shimen Plank Road a symbol of wisdom and courage. During the Yongping period of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the ancients, with extraordinary courage and wisdom, used the method of "fire and water" to dig out the world's earliest traffic tunnel - Shimen. The appearance of this stone gate is like a shining pearl in the long river of history, illuminating the development path of ancient transportation. From then on, the Shimen Plank Road became more convenient and attracted countless literati and poets to visit. They left precious inscriptions and poems here, leaving a rich cultural heritage for future generations.
