Introduction to the Changchunling Ancient Post Road: The Ma'ao Ancient Post Road was an important postal route for Zhoushan to communicate with the outside world at that time. The ancient post road from Dinghai to the Sanjiangkou of Ma'ao is 14 kilometers long. The road is paved with cobblestones. It was first built in the Kaiyuan period of the Tang Dynasty. The ancient post road is the only way from Dinghai to Daishan, Shengsi and Shanghai. It is also the only post road for officials to transmit information and private trade. The ancient post road runs from Sanjiang Commercial Port across Pingshi Ridge and Changchun Ridge to the north gate of Dinghai. The ancient roads are winding and the mountains are long. For thousands of years, countless traders, scholars rushing for exams, and migrating officials have left their footprints on the ancient post roads.
