Why are there so many wineries in Gujing Town, Bozhou?

Because it is the origin of Gujing Distillery, one of the top ten famous wines in China, as the saying goes, relying on mountains to eat, relying on water to draft, when a region's industry forms a scale, it will drive the local economic development!

As for the water quality, Bozhou ancient well water is really good, anyway, there are many minerals! There is also a little legend here.

History shows such a picture. In 532 AD, the evil wind roared and the horses neighed. In order to recapture Qiaocheng (now Bozhou), the Northern Wei Dynasty fought a desperate battle with Yuan Shu, the commander of Nanliang. Du, the general of Wei, was ordered to go to war. But after several battles, they were all defeated. Before they died, they threw the golden mace into a well near the camp. Later, the water quality of this well changed greatly. The well water nearby is salty and unpalatable. Only this well is clear and sweet. For thousands of years, local people have been using this well water to make wine. Today, Gu Jingren specially built "Gu Jingting" and "Gu Jingyuan" on it to show protection and commemoration.

Besides, Gu Jing's brewing technology is unique, and the wine is very famous!

In addition, just as Nanyang people in Henan do more jade business, Bozhou does more medicinal materials business, and Bozhou Gu Jing is famous for wine, so he does more wine business!
