In the southwestern reaches of Jilin Province of China lies the small town of Ji an. Here, between the hills, can be found the remnants of the Ancient Koguryo Kingdom, which was thought by Koreans to be one of the origin of modern Korea, but as the Chinese view, it is nothing to do with Korea. Established in 37 BC and destroyed in 668 AD, the Koguryo Kingdom lasted for 705 years and played a big role in the development of Northeast Asia.
