What is the wall of Chaling ancient city made of?
There is such a saying in a famous folk proverb in Hunan: "Chaling City Wall is the God of Anren". Today, the "Anren Town God" no longer exists, but the ancient city wall of Chaling Southern Song Dynasty still stands quietly by the river and silently adheres to its mission. As the only well-preserved stone town in Song Dynasty in Hunan, it was built in Shaoding of Southern Song Dynasty for five years. At that time, a peasant uprising broke out in Hunan, and the rebels forcibly entered Chaling.
At that time, Yu Rong, the ambassador of Hunan Anfu, said to Liu Zimai, the magistrate and military ambassador of Chaling County, "The gateway of Hsuan-Chih Chen, two cities and two roads, is as big as Chaling?" So Liu Zimai presided over the fortification. In order to build the city well, Liu Zimai invited many geomantic masters to choose the site, and finally chose this geomantic treasure-house surrounded by water (_ water) on three sides and high mountain (Yunyang Mountain) on the west. After the wall was built, he cast a one-horned iron rhinoceros on the river bank to kill the momentum!
