Travel tips for the ruins of the ancient castle of Jiangzi

Scenic spot introduction:

The ruins of the Zongshan Castle stand on the cliffs in the center of the ancient city of Gyangze. The entire castle complex is scattered on the top of the mountain, 4,020 meters above sea level, and looks very majestic and steep in the center of the Nianchu River Plain. What makes Gyangze most famous is that it has a heroic history that is worth singing and crying. In the winter of 1903, the British invaders invaded Gyangze from Yadong and were stubbornly resisted by the Tibetan soldiers and civilians. The British army suffered heavy casualties and was forced to flee. In April 1904, the British army attacked Gyangze again. With advanced weapons, they killed innocent people indiscriminately. The Tibetan soldiers and civilians used homemade guns and cannons to resist stubbornly for more than two months on Zongshan. In the end, due to the corruption and incompetence of the Qing government, backward weapons and the accidental explosion of the gunpowder depot, they ran out of ammunition and food, and all the anti-British warriors died heroically. The movie "Red River Valley" truly reproduces this history.
