Lesser-known tourist attraction - The Mysterious Heishuicheng

Lesser-known tourist attraction - The Mysterious Heishuicheng In the depths of the desert in Ejina Banner, Inner Mongolia, there is such a half-buried in the yellow sand and half-exposed ancient city site full of the Juyan civilization a thousand years ago. Here was once lush with water and grass, densely covered with rivers and lakes, and dense forests. Here was once populous and prosperous. Here was once the transportation hub from the Central Plains to the north of the desert. Marco Polo entered the eastern paradise along this ancient road. It is the mysterious Heicheng, also known as Heishuicheng! Heishuicheng, called Harahor in Mongolian, also known as Heicheng, is located on the desert on the north bank of the dried-up Ejin River (Heishui), 25 kilometers southeast of the flag government of Ejina Banner, Alxa League - Dalai Kubu Town, and is part of the Juyan culture. The reason why Heishuicheng is called "Heishui" is because there was a Heishui River flowing here before the Yuan Dynasty, forming an inland lake named Juyan Sea. During the Han Dynasty, after driving away the Huns, there were farming soldiers stationed here. Today, Ejina has become the Juyan site and Heishuicheng protection base, and has become a tourist scenic spot.
