Introduction

Since the establishment of the county in the fifth year of Emperor Han Gaozu, Zhenyuan has a history of more than 2200 years and is the oldest historic city on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. The Yang River runs through Zhenyuan in an S-shape, forming a Bagua pattern, which is why the region is also known as the Bagua Ancient Town. Zhenyuan is formed by three streets connected end to end, with numerous inns, restaurants, and shops along both sides, and every kind of specialty food is available. To the west of the ancient town is a new bridge, and to the east is a landmark building, the Zhusheng Bridge, which locals refer to as the old bridge. You can also climb Shiping Mountain to overlook the entire ancient city and the Yang River scenery. Zhenyuan's most attractive feature is its night view, which is the city's biggest highlight.
