Zhenyuan|The forgotten ruins on Shiping Mountain.

|The forgotten ruins on Shiping Mountain. As an important military town in ancient times, Zhenyuan built a large number of city walls according to the terrain. The complete city walls include the city wall, the four official palaces and the acropolis wall. Because they are relatively well preserved, they are listed in the seventh batch of national key cultural relics protection units. The visible part of the city wall in the ancient city is located near the Zhenyuan Theater at the end of the New Bridge. The small section is hidden in the commercial streets and is difficult to see. The largest section is located on the top of Shiping Mountain and runs east-west, close to the cliff. This section of the ancient city wall is now named the "Miaojiang Ancient Great Wall". From a distance, it is indeed as majestic and majestic as the Great Wall. The entire section of the city wall was built against the mountain and is now planned as a "health trail" to attract tourists. However, judging from the overgrown weeds on the site, few tourists will climb this section of the city wall, let alone complete the walk. The whole journey, if done on foot, takes about 40 minutes round trip. Generally speaking, this section of the city wall is not easy to walk. I walked through it myself and took a lot of photos. I was the only one in the whole process, and no other tourists came here. But the moment I climbed to the top of the city wall, I could see the mountains far away from the town. , still admire the courage and wisdom of the ancients. I remembered again the scene of mountain climbing in Hailongtun, Zunyi a few days ago. I walked slowly on the mountain road built with great pains by the ancients, as if I owned the entire mountain alone. The scenery along the way was really imprinted in my heart. Will never be forgotten.
