Liliang Ancient Road
As an important branch of the ancient Shu Road's Micang Path, it was the essential courier route from Lizhou (now Guangyuan) to Langzhong in ancient times. Within the territory of Bailin Ancient Town, it stretches over ten kilometers from north to south, starting at Shiquanzi (Xiemayi Post) in the north and reaching Xiaojia Mountain (Ming Dynasty courier road) and Maohewan Mountain (Qing Dynasty courier road) in the south. Sentry platforms were set up every three to five li for travelers to rest and cool off, with relatively flat connecting paths in perilous sections for mounted travel and cargo transport. The road features four Buddha Cliff sites with hundreds of Buddha statues. Along the way, towering yellow tung trees and dense cypress forests create picturesque landscapes with mountain paths and water stations.
