Ji'an.

Ji'an stands on the middle reaches of the Gan River where the Suichuan, Shu and He rivers join it, and it is the natural gateway to the mountains of the Luo Xiao range. The city has two faces: a plain crossed by the river, with old academies and a well in which the scholar Wen Tianxiang studied, and above it, the wooded slopes of Jinggangshan. Read them together and the middle of the province explains itself.

Jinggangshan town below the mountains

Two mountains in one

Jinggangshan is a revolutionary memorial and a spring garden at the same time, and the honest way to read it keeps both.
