| Jingzhou, Hunan, the hometown of bayberry. Jingzhou, Hunan, is not well-known, but it has a long history. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, it became a major commercial town at the border of Hunan, Guizhou, and Guangxi provinces due to its geographical advantages. However, as times changed and waterways were no longer the main means of transportation, it became a leisurely small town hidden in the mountains that few people knew about. Today, the only traces of history that can be touched in Jingzhou city are basically the Tuqiao Street and He Street, the mottled old houses and alleys, and the colorful glutinous rice drying in front of the houses; there are also the wharfs, the old stilted buildings, the renovated guild halls, and one can vaguely recall the past glory from them. The street is not long, and at the end you can see the long Qujiang River. The bluestone slabs of the Ma Wang Bridge are still there.
