After Liuchong River originated from Xingwang Longjing in Fuchu Township, it flows peacefully and lazily to the boundary of Kele Township surrounded by mountains and a flat dam in the middle, and meets the Maji River in the territory in a "human" shape. With the "growth" of the water, Liuchong River has become like a gentle young mother for the children of Coke to multiply and "help" create the Yelang culture.
According to the records in "Origin of Yi Nationality" and "Historical Biography of Yelang", Kola was the political and cultural center of the ancient Yelang Kingdom in its heyday. Archaeological results show that the Kola site was an important town in the ancient Yelang Kingdom, and it was also an important stronghold for the Han Dynasty to control the Southwestern Yi. As the years have changed, Gu Yelang has become a beautiful memory.

Guoluobao, opposite the courtyard dam of the township government, got its name because it looks like a big iron pot when viewed from the air. The edge of the "pot" is said to be the commanding platform where King Yelang dispatched troops. Walking up along the newly laid floor tiles is really a bit of a response, and the graceful figure of Liuchong River can be seen at a glance. Today, the locals often climb to the top and overlook the platform, "the blue sky and white clouds above their heads, and the Qin bricks and Han tiles on their feet", reminiscing about the prosperity nourished by the Liuchong River here.
In October 2010, the "Kole National Archaeological Site Park" was approved by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage to establish the project. The Party Committee and the government of Kele Township took the lead in playing "fast chess" and diverted water from the Liuchong River passing through the border to build the Kele Lake. Along the lake, Sun Plaza and museums have sprung up one after another. During the day, under the sunlight, the bronze statues of the twelve zodiac signs on the Sun Square are particularly eye-catching. On the ground in the center of the square is the famous "October Solar Calendar of the Yi Nationality", which is solemn and solemn; A good place for leisure, it has also become an ideal place for children's entertainment.
The years are long. The Liuchong River, which gave birth to Yelang culture, still chooses to flow unhurriedly, infiltrating every inch of land here, so that every heart here can calm down to seek longer-term development, walk with the times, and celebrate with the motherland.
