It is located in the present-day Xiangxi Autonomous Region of Tujia and Miao in the western province of Hunan, China.
In late April 2000, in order to prepare to declare Fenghuang as a national historical and cultural city, the Fenghuang County Party Committee and the County Government specially invited Zhao Jinghui, an expert on ancient architecture from the Ministry of Construction of the People’s Republic of China, Luo Jinghui, an expert on ancient architecture from the State Administration of Cultural Heritage, and vice president of the Great Wall Society.
There are more than 1,300 South Great Walls used for military and defense purposes, including Xunbao, Diaolou, Tunka, Outposts, Fortresses, and Pass Gates.
Because stones are often demolished by nearby living people to build houses, today's Miaojiang Great Wall is already intermittent, and some well-preserved castles are the most distinctive.
According to Yang Zhiyong, a cadre of the Propaganda Department of the Fenghuang County Party Committee, when he was a child, there was a side wall in Liaojiaqiao Town, and there were three gates to the east, west and south.
The "Changzhen" that defended the Ming Tombs in Beijing was more than 200 kilometers long, which was about the same length as the side wall of "Zhengan" town in Hunan (now Fenghuang County).
In order to achieve the purpose of propaganda, the "South Great Wall 2003 China-Korea Go Invitational Tournament" was held in Fenghuang County.
