Commonly known as Baiyan Fortress, it is located in Shuanghe Village, Yongfu Town, southeast of the county town, covering an area of about 2 hectares. Established in the early Southern Song Dynasty, it is the oldest historically documented structure in the area. The fortress spans over 30 acres, with precipitous cliffs on the east, north, and west sides that are impossible to climb. The southern side offers an open view, providing a clear sightline of the terrain ahead. Surrounded by rugged terrain on three sides, the entrance of the fortress is flanked by jagged rocks, arranged in a crisscross pattern, forming a natural barrier. Today, remnants of some walls still remain. The gate is 2.2 meters high and 1.7 meters wide, with the gate wall being 1.6 meters thick. The stacked wall reaches a height of 3.6 meters, and several ancient stone carvings depicting weapons and blades are preserved on the walls, showcasing simple and rustic craftsmanship. It is located 5 kilometers from the Western Sichuan Bamboo Sea.
