Ancient Sizhou site
The site of ancient Sizhou city is considered as a new type of ancient Chinese city by experts. Because China's existing 101 historical and cultural cities are mixed with buildings from ancient times to the present, including World Heritage Lijiang in Yunnan and Pingyao in Shanxi. Only the ancient Sizhou city "solidified" the state of 325 years ago, such a city is extremely rare in the world. Zhang Min, director and researcher of the Institute of Archaeology of Nanjing Museum, said that ancient Sizhou city should be positioned as "the only disastrous city site in China". This is the charm of Sizhou city. In this sense, the excavation of ancient Sizhou city will have the conditions to declare "China's top ten discoveries".

On June 4, 2005, at the expert demonstration meeting on the archaeological exploration results of the ancient Sizhou city site held in Xuyi county, the mysterious veil of the ancient Sizhou City, known as "Pompeii of China", which has been sleeping underground for 325 years, was finally revealed layer by layer.
history
More than 300 years ago, the ancient Sizhou City, which was flooded by the flood of the Yellow River, has been considered to be in the water of Hongze Lake and Huaihe River. However, after nearly a year's exploration, the Institute of cultural and natural heritage of Nanjing University has proved that this prosperous ancient city, once the water transport center of Bianhe River, was not submerged in Hongze Lake, but only one tenth of it was submerged in the water of Huaihe River. Most of it faces the first mountain of Xuyi county across the Huaihe River.
