About Daming Border City

Its recreated townscape and public river setting provide the physical basis for a relaxed visit. Cultural programmes, including bonfire events, have also been held here, but these depend on the current calendar. Read the architecture as a themed interpretation and check the day’s programme before planning around a particular performance or activity.

What to look for

  • The recreated townscape interprets Ming-period frontier and local-life themes.
  • The Jin River setting provides open waterside views alongside the developed complex.

Location & getting there

Getting to Daming Border City

The scenic area is in Jinjiang Subdistrict, Bijiang District, Tongren. Use the specifically mapped Daming Border City entrance for the final road transfer; the development company’s older office address at Jinjiang Square is not a visitor entrance.

Choose the building, exhibition or part of the historic area you most want to see, then leave time to explore its setting.
