–The layout of the east and west Wengcheng in Jiayuguan is strict. The word “Chaozong” is engraved on the forehead of the east Wengcheng gate tower, which means that although the court officials in the past traveled to the “extreme borders”, they still did not forget the court and the king.
–The word “Huiji” is engraved on the forehead of Xiweng City Gate, which means that princes, officials and business travelers from the Western Regions met here in good faith and passed here to pay tribute to the Central Plains Dynasty. The gate of Xiweng City also faces south and is not directly connected to the inner city gate, making the city more solemn and deep and becoming a line of defense for the inner city.
