Sijianjing

It is now a municipal-level cultural heritage site, located at No. 23 Dazhishi Lane in the city center. It is also known as the "Rouge Well." The area where the well is situated, Changfu Lane, was once the residence granted to the renowned early Ming Dynasty general Chang Yuchun (1330–1369). Sijianjing is said to have been the well used by the kitchen of the Chang Mansion. The well is covered with four square outer and round inner wellhead stones, topped with four stone railings. Today, the stone railings are no longer extant, but the rest remains intact and it continues to be used by local residents.
