When it comes to Wanshan Ancient Town, many people may not know its splendid history
1️⃣ It was our first special administrative region, decades before Shenzhen;
2️⃣ The mercury produced there was called 'patriotic mercury' by the Premier;
3️⃣ In the 1960s, it helped the motherland repay 75% of its foreign debt;
4️⃣ Wanshan is famous for producing cinnabar that was known throughout the civilized world, and its cinnabar industry park leads the nation in both output and quality of cinnabar!
'That era' is located inside Wanshan Cinnabar Ancient Town, a dozen kilometers away from the high-speed train station of the ancient town, with a smooth journey all the way!
What you feel when you get there is like traveling back to the 60s and 70s, with buildings well-preserved, and the atmosphere of the towering ancient city is all post-liberation scenes.
