The Ganzhou Ancient City Wall was originally built during the Han Dynasty, expanded during the Ming Dynasty to form its current layout, stretching over 3600 meters, resembling a dragon winding along the Gan River. It is the best-preserved Ming and Qing ancient city wall in the Jiangnan region. The walls are built on a foundation of rice-mud mortar and brick, with dense arrow slits and staggered battlements. Climbing the walls provides a stunning view of the Gan River flowing and the city’s buildings lining its banks. The late afternoon light adds to its solemn and magnificent atmosphere.
