1. Post Station is a place where people or officials who delivered official documents and military information exchanged horses and chariots in ancient China. China is one of the first countries in the world to establish institutions to transmit information. Although the postal service has a history of more than 3,000 years, there are not many sites and cultural relics left behind.

2. The post station is a communication institution specially set up by the government to transmit official documents and military information after the emergence of the country. It has a history of 3000 years (some people think that the post station has a history of more than 4000 years), and its construction and operation costs are important expenditures of the state finance. In the early days, official documents and military information were mainly delivered by manpower, so in the Spring and Autumn Period, people called the institutions that delivered official documents at home and abroad "post stations". The postal distance is 25 kilometers, which is the distance that an adult can travel back and forth on the same day.
