About Gaixia Archaeological Site

This site lies at Gaixia village, also identified as Laozhuang Huzhuang, in Weiji Town. Its natural high ground drops steeply on the southern side and slopes more gently to the north, with ditches around it and mounds scattered across the area.

Bronze arrowheads and swords recovered here have been kept by the county cultural-relics office. The site's interest lies in its terrain and battlefield association; these finds should not be assumed to form an exhibition at the site itself.

What to look for

  • The raised natural ground and its steep southern edge near the Tuo River.
  • The surrounding ditches and scattered earth mounds that define the site's terrain.
