Tiemenguan City is a county-level city directly under the jurisdiction of Xinjiang, and the Second Division of Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps implements the management system of integrating division and city, which is managed by Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps. Tiemenguan City, located at the southern foot of Tianshan Mountain and in the east of Tarim Basin, is the transportation hub where the southern foot of Tianshan Mountain meets the northern slope of Kunlun Mountain, and the only way for the middle section of the ancient Silk Road. Its name comes from "tiemenguan", one of the 26 famous passes in ancient China.

Since the name "tiemenguan City" comes from "tiemenguan", is tiemenguan tiemenguan City? Not exactly. Tiemenguan is located in the northern suburb of Korla, the capital of Bayinguoleng Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture in Xinjiang, 8 kilometers away from the steep canyon in the upper reaches of Peacock River. It used to be a natural barrier for traffic in northern and southern Xinjiang and the throat of the ancient Silk Road. Rulers set up a pass here, which was consolidated by risks, so it was called "tiemenguan" and listed as one of the 26 passes in ancient China.

Tiemenguan has two floors, the lower floor is the doorway of the building foundation, the upper floor is the ancient building with sloping peaks, and it is surrounded by the cornices of Baoxia. Originally, the word "tiemenguan" was engraved on the Guan Lou, but I don't know when it was changed to the word "Silk Road Xiongguan".

So Korla is the only tiemenguan in China? Not necessarily. How many tiemenguan are there in China?

Wuhan tiemenguan, located in West Malong Street, Binjiang Avenue, Hanyang District, is an important military fortress in Wuhan. In that cold weapon era, tiemenguan actively and effectively played its important military functions. Emperor Taizong and Li Shimin unified China and then built Hanyang City, which made the Pass a tourist attraction.

Tiemenguan, Shanhaiguan, is located in the northeast of the old leading scenic spot in Shanhaiguan. This is a very misleading pass. Some historians have mistakenly thought that this was the first pass of the Ming Great Wall. In fact, this is a very common opening remark. After the "Xin Chou Treaty", the south of Shanhaiguan became the camp of Britain, France, Germany, Japan, Belgium, Italy and India. At that time, Italian soldiers wanted to swim at sea and had to pass through the British camp. When the British soldiers refused, the Italian soldiers tore down the nearby wall, dug a big hole in the Great Wall, and installed a door covered with iron in the hole. Therefore, the local people used to call it "tiemenguan".

Tiemenguan, the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty, is located in Qianxi County, Tangshan City, at the junction of Tangshan and Chengde. This pass is steep, and there must be two passes. One person will keep it, and ten thousand people will not.
