"Running on a River" touched everyone with the beauty that transcended the geographical environment, and was loved by people of different regions, nationalities and skin colors in the world, and was praised as "Oriental Serenade" by western music circles. Its charm lies in that it was bred in the mysterious humanistic soil of Midu.
Midu is an ancient place in western Yunnan. The bronze drums of the Warring States period unearthed at Sancha Road and Qingshiwan, and the bronze drums discovered at the Neolithic site in Yingpanshan, Maoli, show that primitive human beings lived and multiplied here, and experienced the same era as other places, such as "the number of governors is dozens" and "the number of governors is several", and there are many tribes that are not subordinate to each other.
In the second year of Yuanfeng in the Western Han Dynasty [BC 109], Xiangyun, Midu, Fengyi and Binchuan in western Yunnan were all located in Yizhou County, and Midu was one of the earliest named four places in Yunnan. [Ancient] Kun [Modern Dali Area] "Land is on the road from Sichuan to India [Modern India]", and Midu is the crossroads of the ancient Silk Road southward. During Nanzhao period in the Tang Dynasty, Midu was the only place from Pu 'er in Yunnan to the ancient tea-horse road in Tibetan areas.
Ancient road stations such as "Baiyan Town" (now hongyan town), "Dazhuangshao" (now Dazhuang Street) and "Yaohuipu" (now Yaohuiyi Village) recorded by Schumann in the Tang Dynasty have been formed in the territory. Mizhipu, recorded in Wanli annals of Zhaozhou and Tianqi annals of Yunnan in the Ming Dynasty, is an ancient post station gradually evolved from the original Mashipu on the ancient tea-horse road, and it is still a complete relic of the ancient Wen Sheng Street in Mizhi Township.
