The Ancient City Ruins of Beshituholake

      Located about 10 kilometers southwest of the Botang Grassland in Yutian County. It is said to be either Lancheng Shouzhuo or the ancient Shumi City mentioned in the Tang Dynasty's Jia Dan's "Record of Routes and Distances." A section of the city wall remains, approximately 60 meters long and about 2 meters high, built with earthen bricks; the city wall has a circumference of about 1,104 meters, with an inner partition wall. To the north of the city, there are two small mounds, and the area nearby is scattered with numerous pottery shards. To the east, there are many tall earthen mounds, seemingly the ruins of structures from that time. Further east, along the east-west thoroughfare, there is another larger mound, and beside the road, there are ancient irrigation channels.
