Riddle: Airplane delivering mail (guess a place name) Answer: Gaoyou This is the first time I knew about Gaoyou when I was a child. After I started working, I only knew about Gaoyou salted duck eggs, and that was all I knew about Gaoyou. Finally, when I came here, I realized that there are many stories here. Firstly, Gaoyou Lake has beautiful scenery; secondly, Zhongguo Temple is the only temple located on the island in the center of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, and the Zhongguo Temple Pagoda is known as the "Southern Wild Goose Pagoda"; thirdly, Yucheng Post is a "living fossil" of China's postal stations, the largest in scale and the best preserved ancient post station in the country. Pu Songling served as a post official here. It was only after he submitted a request to the emperor for funds to repair and renovate that the large-scale water and land post station we see today was built. Wen Tianxiang was detained during his mission to negotiate peace and escaped to Gaoyou via Jingkou (Zhenjiang). He had a thrilling journey and formed a lifelong bond with Gaoyou. Qin Guan and Wang Zengqi are both from Gaoyou. The famous "Travels of Marco Polo" vividly records the operation of the postal stations and relay stations during the Yuan Dynasty, and mentions his stay at the post station in Gaoyou and the scene of the rich local products. Come to Gaoyou to learn something new!

Yucheng Post Station is located to the east of the main street in Gaoyou City, and is a postal relay architecture left from the Ming Dynasty. It is currently the largest and best-preserved ancient post station in the country. Back in the day, Yucheng Post Station, as a key relay station between the two capitals, hosted many famous scholars and literati, leaving behind a wealth of poems and literary works. Exiting the scenic area, we were also unexpectedly treated to a sunset.

Yucheng Post is located in Guanyixiang, Nanmen Street, Gaoyou City, Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province. It is located on the banks of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, which is surrounded by rippling waves and busy shipping. Walk north along the antique Nanmen Street and you can reach it when you arrive at Guanyixiang. Nanmen Street is an ancient commercial street with many attractions, such as antique shops, restaurants and pubs. The Yucheng Post scenic area is very large, and the main buildings open to tourists are Zhujietang and Huanghuahall. In addition, there are several places, such as China's only Postal Museum, Horse Temple, Drum Tower, etc., which are very attractive and both informative and interesting. The characteristics of Yucheng Post are relatively distinct. With the theme of ancient post buildings and facilities, friends in the postal industry, express delivery industry, and transportation industry can come here to worship at the Horse Temple.

The Yucheng Post Station in Gaoyou is now a World Heritage Site, a national 4A-level tourist attraction, and a national key cultural relics protection unit. It is the 'living fossil' of China's post stations, the largest and best-preserved ancient post station, and a post-transmission building left over from the Ming Dynasty. The current admission fee is 5 yuan. You can enter Nanmen Street from any small road across the street, and Yucheng Post Station is in the middle of Nanmen Street. The post station is relatively large in scale, with a drum tower above the gate, which also serves as a watchtower. As soon as you enter the gate, you will see the place where goods were received and detained at that time. The two rooms behind are where the horsemen and other personnel rest. On the right is the place for watering horses, and many old objects are still preserved. The left side is now the display area of Jingdong Logistics, which is also a combination of ancient and modern. The building is well preserved, but the gate is a bit messy.
