Chapter 172

Jiangcheng, a city backed by mountains and bordering a great river, is divided into eight major districts by two intersecting rivers, renowned for its unique mountain-city topography and rich historical culture. Here, modern skyscrapers and ancient stilt houses complement each other, while the cross-river cable cars shuttle between tall buildings on both banks, forming a striking scenery of the city. At night, the night view of Jiangcheng is even more charming; the brilliant lights of Hongdong blend with the lights of tourist boats on the river surface, composing a moving scroll of pictures.
