The middle part of the ancient city Jiaohe is very well preserved. There are still many houses and other buildings partly or completely standing straight. In this corner you can clearly see that everything has bee built in layers. All the time a new layer of tamped clay got on top.

Het middelste deel van de stad Jiaohe is nog erg goed bewaard gebleven. Er staan nog veel huizen en andere gebouwen geheel of gedeeltelijk overeind. Bij dit hoekje is duidelijk te zien dat alles in lagen gebouwd is. Telkens kwam er weer een nieuwe laag aangestampte klei bovenop.
