Songji

Songji stands on the Yangtze 40 kilometres from the Yongchuan urban area, named after Songzi Mountain and the Gai water inside its borders. It is listed in the fourth batch of Chinese historical and cultural towns, and it has the apparatus of a county seat that outlasted the county: an old yamen, the Fuzi tomb of the Southern Song classicist Chen Shaonan, and the Chen Gong weir, a water project first built in the Ming. The town's name was written with a different character for a period and was restored in 2005. The Yongchuan port area of Chongqing Port works two wharves, Songji and Zhutuo.
