China Shigu is not a country or city, but refers to the Shigu District in Hengyang City, Hunan Province, and the location of the famous Shigu Academy. Shigu District is named after the Shigu Mountain at the confluence of the Xiangjiang River and the Steam Water, and has been a cultural mecca since ancient times. Shigu Academy is one of the four major ancient Chinese academies, founded in the Tang Dynasty, where Zhu Xi, a Song Dynasty scholar of science, once lectured, and is known as the "birthplace of Hunan culture".
The area is known for its deep historical heritage and natural beauty, surrounded by the Xiangjiang River and mountains, which is the iconic landscape of Hengyang. The modern Shigu District integrates education, tourism and urban development, preserving ancient buildings while building parks and cultural facilities to attract visitors to explore traditional Chinese culture and Hunan characteristics.
