Jiayu Pass City
Jiayu Pass City, located in the center of Gansu Corridor, is an important city of tourism on the ancient Silk Road. In Ming Dynasty, Jiayu Pass was built up and the pass was composed of defensive walls, gates and army camps. It was not easy to build such a grand pass. At that time, the construction facilities were simple. So many workers were employed for the construction work. And many stories concerning the construction of the pass have passed down and some of them are still popular with the local people.
