The Guerilla General's Mansion in Jiayuguan, Gansu Province.

📍Address: Jiayuguan Cultural Relics Scenic Area, Jiayuguan City, Gansu Province 🚗Transportation: We drove there 👍️Must-visit: The Guerilla General's Mansion in Jiayuguan, also known as the Guerilla Yamen, was first built during the Longqing period of the Ming Dynasty and later became the place where the Guerilla Generals of the Ming and Qing Dynasties stationed in Jiayuguan handled military affairs. The current building was restored and rebuilt in 1987 based on the original building. It is a two-courtyard, three-hall, and four-compound style building, covering an area of 1,755 square meters and a building area of 808 square meters. In the ancient military history of Jiayuguan, the Guerilla General's Mansion was not only the command center of the Jiayuguan Great Wall defense system, but also the hub of the imperial court's local rule, the inspection of merchants and envoys, and the connection between the Western Regions and Central Asia and various ethnic minorities. The exhibition of the Guerilla General's Mansion in Jiayuguan is divided into two parts. The front yard is centered on the conference hall, focusing on the scenes of ancient Guerilla Generals and civil and military officials commanding the enemy and issuing passes. The backyard is the place where the Guerilla General and his family live, vividly showing the life of the Guerilla General and his family. The exhibition form is both simple and has a certain ornamental and interesting, making it a highlight of the visit to Jiayuguan. I went there before National Day.
