In the south of China, there is also an ancient Great Wall, one section of which is in Fenghuang County. It has similar defensive functions and structures as the Ming-dynasty Great Wall in north China. Located at the border of Hunan and Guizhou, the Southern Great Wall starts at Xiqueying Village of Guzheng County and ends at the Tingziguan Pass with a total length of more than 190 kilometers. According to the textual research, by the specialists, the Southern Great Wall was first built in 1615 at a tremendous financial cost. Mostly constructed on high and precipitous ridges, 4,000-5,000 soldiers used to be stationed along this section of the Southern Great Wall.
