A mysterious labyrinth of streets where traffic jams never happen — witness the world’s largest bagua (Eight Trigrams) city phenomenon here

The world is full of wonders, and hidden everywhere are astonishing and mysterious attractions. Located in **, Tekes County is the only county-level city on the mainland that does not have any traffic lights. The city’s most distinctive feature is its radial, circular layout, which is why it is also known as the “Bagua City.”

With its exquisitely mysterious bagua layout and modern architectural structures, it has created China’s largest “Bagua City” to date. The city’s streets are like a magical maze, with interconnected roads and linked streets. Even without any traffic lights, there are no traffic jams or blockages — traffic flows in an orderly manner, and vehicles and pedestrians can reach their destinations no matter which direction they take.

The roundabout at the center of the city forms a Taiji (yin-yang) diagram, from which eight main streets extend outward like the yin and yang fish at the center, creating the shape of the bagua. A large stone is placed at the intersection of each of the eight main streets. From the central viewing platform, the entire city looks like a giant bagua formation.
