Yanzhao Ancient City: The birthplace of Zhuanxu, it also records stories from the pre-Qin history

Because it is said that the Ruoshui River is near Yingjing, there is a theory that this is the hometown of Zhuanxu; Zhuanxu, the grandson of the Yellow Emperor and Lei Zu, is one of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors. The system of the Nine Provinces was created by him, with far-reaching influence; The term "Yanzhao" first became an administrative division in the Central Plains, initially established by the Qin, and was garrisoned by Chuli Zi, the brother of King Hui of Qin (Yes, the story has been depicted in the drama 'The Legend of Miyue'); At that time, the jurisdiction not only included Yingjing County but also other counties and cities in Ya'an, Hongya, and other places; Today's Yanzhao Ancient City Ruins Scenic Area is divided into two parts: One is the Zhuanxu Cultural Square area in the center of the county town, which feels more atmospheric when the lights are on at night, and there is the Qinghua Street Night Market next to the square, where you can find food at night; The other is the ruins area, with remaining steles, and also the suitable for research and study Ancient City Field Natural School (campsite); you can navigate to "Ying Kiln·2300", and the ruins are diagonally opposite, located beside the G108 National Highway.
