The outstanding feature of Jiayuguan poetry is that it depicts the wonderful landscape of the desert pass from different angles.
Some people focus on Guan: "Immediately look at Qilian, the strange peaks reach into the sky. Walking west to Jiayu, there are no blue clouds." (Ming Dynasty Chen Di's "Qilian Mountains")
< p>Some focus on the wind and sand; "The wind shakes the tamarisk trees thousands of miles in the sky, and the moon shines on the quicksand for a day" ("Dunhuang Nostalgia" by Wang Yao of the Qing Dynasty).More poems focus on describing the majesty of Guancheng: "The Great Wall drinks horses in the cold night moon, and the ancient garrison carvings are windy in the desert. The danger is the Lulong Mountains and the sea, who in the southeast can compare with this Guanxiong" (Lin Zexu of the Qing Dynasty) "Reflections on Leaving Jiayuguan Pass")
"The hills and mountains overlap the Xiongguan Pass, and the pass is so majestic that it reaches the Han Dynasty" ("Entering the Pass" by Bolu of the Song Dynasty in the Qing Dynasty)
"The Great Wall is as high as the white clouds , a dangerous building with ten thousand low walls, locking the key on nine sides to connect Mobei, and dividing Anxi from the four counties of Wunni" ("Dengjiayu Pass" by Pei Jingfu of the Qing Dynasty).
