Wanding Town

The term "sun" means "the sun is the top", so people like to call it "the sun is the top place". The city is the smallest border city in the country, the national port, also known as the border "pocket city", is also one of the smallest cities in China, Yunnan three border open cities. 100 years ago, this place was a wild place where jackal infested. It is a sheep intestine trail, a "martial road" to the outside, a broken hut by the river, that is, the "station" where past traders drink and rest.

In late 2018, I revisited Bianyu. Although this is a small town, it has a reputation, especially in the military and territory of ancient and modern times. The historical classics can be traced back to the Han Dynasty. "Yuan" is the slang language "the place where the sun is the top", originally the territory of the Yi Alliance, and the Ming Dynasty is the jurisdiction. In 1932, the town was set up, and after liberation, it experienced the withdrawal of the town and the withdrawal of the city. When I first came to Shanghai, it was still the establishment of the city. This time I came to Shanghai, and first recovered the signage of the city that year. During World War II, the Japanese blocked all Chinese outlets, and in 1938 the Myanmar Highway was opened to traffic, becoming the starting point of the China section of the Myanmar Highway, and the starting point of the famous Stilwell Highway in the history of World War II, the base camp of the Allied forces of the United States and Britain. The only land passage is where hundreds of military vehicles transport aid from the international anti-fascist camp to the mainland every day, from which hundreds of thousands of Chinese expeditionary forces leave to fight. The other side of the river is Myanmar, the bridge is the border river bridge between China and Myanmar. In 1938, the wooden bridge was converted into a stone arch bridge. After the war of World War II, the steel bridge was not rebuilt until 1946. The new bridge is now close to the old bridge. Once the smallest city, the port is still the smallest national level port, and the current population is only more than 10,000.
