Si Dao Gou

Si Dao Gou

Si Dao Gou (Chinese: 四道沟; pinyin:Sì Dào Gōu; English: Fourth Ditch) is a hamlet, located in the jurisdiction of the prefecture-level city unit of Mudanjiang, Heilongjiang Province, in the People's Republic of China. The nearest village is Wēn Chūn. Close to Si Dao Gou is the Mudan River.

Si Dao Gou is known by several names. Since it sits atop a hill or ridge, Si Dao Gou is also known as either Shàng Cūn (Upper Village) or Shàng Gōu (Upper Ditch). Some people, it is said, also call the place Húa Gǔo Shán (Flower Fruit Mountain).

As in the rest of the province, Si Dao Gou has a cool temperate continental climate with strong seasonal contrasts. It is primarily influenced by the dry Siberian cold in the winter.

Si Dao Gou was established in or about the 1880s. At present, Si Dao Gou has a population of perhaps 40 families. It is thought that much of this community represents descendants of immigrants from the south, who came north to Heilongjiang Province in the great internal migrations of the late 18th and early 19th centuries.

Si Dao Gou was in Chinese territory occupied by the Japanese and, after August 1945, briefly by Soviet Forces. Shortly before 1949, there was fighting nearby between the Guómíndǎng (Nationalist) and Gòngchǎndǎng (Communist) forces. The rest of the history of Si Dao Gou remains to be discovered.

For the most part, the people of Si Dao Gou work in agriculture. The main crops are yellow (soy) beans, potatoes, corn, wheat, sorghum, and fruits.
