Technology opens up new realm to experience ancient town

The Zhao Ancestral Hall displays weapons, equipment, wax figures and photos from the numerous battles Qingyan sustained over the centuries.

Life-size replicas of ancient warships drift across a lotus pond just outside the city walls, reminding visitors of the martial legacy that could hardly be forgotten by the descendants of soldiers who inhabit this peaceful place forged by war.
