The pass is also known by the name the First and Greatest Pass Under Heaven, which is not to be confused with the First Pass Under Heaven, a name for Shanhaiguan at the east end of the Great Wall near Qinhuangdao, Hebei.

현비장성과 맞닿아 있는 곳. 자위관관성이다. 자위관관성은 간쑤성의 성중 규모면에서 가장 크고 보존이 잘 되어있어 많은 관광객이 찾는다. 고대 군사적 요새로서 가장 완벽한 성이라고 한다. 자위관관성에서는 오전, 오후 하루에 두 번. 관광객을 위해 공연을 한다. 깃발과 창을 이용한 군무와 용과 사자 전통춤. 그리고 현대식 서커스 공연까지 관광객들의 시선을 사로잡는다. 그중에 가장 인기 있는 건? 변검. 볼수록 신기하다. 보는 관중들의 손에 땀을 쥐게 하는 공연은 아슬아슬하다. 그리고 웅장한 음악과 함께 시작되는 공연은 무사들의 현란한 액션 씬이 대하드라마를 옮겨 놓은 듯하다. 내용은 권선징악을 담고 있단다. 자위관광성에서 서역으로 가는 통행증을 만들어주는 장군이라는데, 지금도 옛날 방식으로 통해해도 좋다는 허가증을 만들어 준다. “한국 KBS 방송국 관련 사람들이 이 성문을 지나가는 것을 허가한다.”

Not the Great Wall, not the Terracotta Warriors, but an ancient fort in Gansu China !

What we have here is an ancient fort (Buzi 堡子 in Chinese) - in Tongwei City, Gansu Province. Buzi in this area of China date from approximately a couple thousand years old (Qin or Han dynasty) to a few hundred years old (Song or Ming dynasty). In fact, they were actually used in more recent times during the Sino-Japanese war also. As Wikipedia mentions ... the combined defence line of forts has been compared to the Great Wall of China. However, these days most stand empty and unused, and remain simply as ghostly remains of their distant pasts.

The fort you see here is very strategically positioned, and in fact is the largest and thus main fort in amongst 5 or 6 others that overlook the valley down below. You'll see me zooming in to two of the smaller forts in the first 35 seconds. There was definitely a strong defensive presence in place here once upon a time. Also of great interest is the little secret cave which I enter from the 3 min mark - I assume it was a storage area for weapons or supplies.

The problem is I can't seem to find a name or any information for this fort, nor do I have any knowledge of dating things like this, PLUS there are around 1400 of these tombs in this area in Gansu and from what I can tell many of them remain anonymous. I'm going to guess this fort is from the Ming Dynasty.

Gaochang

Here from my epic journey on the silk route in 2012/13 is my look at Gaochang in China. It was one of the highlights for me of the trip, I am a bit into ancient sites, I have a great connection with them, and I don't know why?
Anyway I hope you get a taste for what out there and how the Chinese are trying to restore it!


Located 30 kilometers southeast of Turpan City, Gaochang, is an ancient city built on the northern edge of the Taklamakan Desert and to the south of the Flaming Mountains. Built in the 1st century BC, Gaochang, was an important area along the Silk Road. It was burnt down and destroyed in the 14th century due to increased warfare. The old palace and city ruins can be seen today as they’ve been well-preserved.

Gaochang was once a fertile and prosperous city serving as capital for three western states in ancient times. The location of Gaochang was ideal as it was located in the middle of the Turpan Basin and the city’s layout was designed with high walls and deep moats, making it a significant military fortress for the Western Region for centuries.

With an area of about 2 million square meters, the Ancient Ruins contain the outer and inner cities, along with a palace. The layout of the city is similar to that of Chang’an (capital of the Tang Dynasty at that time, today’s Xi’an). It is said that, “If you want to learn about the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, Gaochang Ancient Ruins will show you.”

The outer city is surrounded by 11-meter high and 12-meter wide mud walls and nine city gates. The inner city is a 3-kilometer long rectangle that shares its southern wall with the Palace in the northern part of the inner city. A pagoda called, “The Castle of Khan” (meaning “Imperial Palace”) stands on a high stage there.

With a history of about 1,300 years, Gaochang, has witnessed many ups and downs in the Turpan region. These delicate ancient ruins have been listed as precious cultural relics under state protection.

Jiayuguan Pass in Gansu Province

Short video about the preservation efforts for the Great Wall's best preserved military pass. Footage includes a number of time lapses, shot by me and my team.

A Weekend in Jiayuguan

A Record of a weekend I spent in Jiayuguan with Kieran and Beth, as well as the previous week going around Gansu province with Tom and our school on a school trip.

Jiayuguan is home to the far end of the Great Wall of China and also served as an opportunity to finally go on a camel in the Gobi desert!

Jin dynasty (265–420) | Wikipedia audio article

This is an audio version of the Wikipedia Article:
Jin dynasty (265–420)

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.

Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain

Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
The Jin dynasty or the Jin Empire (; Chinese: 晉朝; pinyin: Jìn Cháo, sometimes distinguished as the Sima Jin (司马晋) or Liang Jin) (两晋, Two Jins) was a Chinese dynasty traditionally dated from 266 to 420. It was founded by Sima Yan, son of Sima Zhao, who was made Prince of Jin and posthumously declared the founder of the dynasty. It followed the Three Kingdoms period (220-280 AD), which ended with the conquest of Eastern Wu by the Jin.
There are two main divisions in the history of the dynasty. The Western Jin (266–316) was established as a successor state to Cao Wei after Sima Yan usurped the throne, and had its capital at Luoyang or Chang'an (modern Xi'an); Western Jin reunited China in 280, but fairly shortly thereafter fell into a succession crisis, civil war, and invasion by the Five Barbarians (Wu Hu). The rebels and invaders began to establish new self-proclaimed states in the Yellow River valley in 304, inaugurating the Sixteen Kingdoms era. These states immediately began fighting each other and the Jin Empire, leading to the second division of the dynasty, the Eastern Jin (317–420) when Sima Rui moved the capital to Jiankang (modern Nanjing). The Eastern Jin dynasty was eventually overthrown by the Liu Song.
