Easternmost Sentry Post

东方第一哨

A frontier post in Wusu Town known as the 'First Sentry in the East', one of the places where the national flag is raised earliest each day.

The First Sentry in the East was originally a border guard post in Wusu Town. It earned its name by sitting at the easternmost point of mainland China, where the sunrise arrives first each day. It is now open as a patriotic education site, where you can visit the old post, an observation platform and the river scenery, and look across to Russia on the opposite bank. Opening hours and visiting requirements are as set on site. When taking photos, do not point your camera at on-duty soldiers or military installations.
