The east and west urns of Jiayuguan have a strict layout, and the gate tower of the east urn is engraved with the word "chaozong", which means that although the officials of the past court traveled to the "extreme borders", they still did not forget the court and the king. In contrast, Xiweng City has the word "Huiji" engraved on the forehead. It means that the princes, officials, and merchants from the Western Regions met here in goodwill and friendship, passed by here, and paid tribute to the Central Plains dynasty. The West Weng City also splits the gate to the south, and does not directly connect with the inner city gate, which makes the Guancheng more solemn and deep, and becomes a line of defense for the inner city.
