Jinshanling Great Wall
Feature: Jinshanling Great Wall lies within Luanping county, Hebei province, 130km from Beijing. It used to be under the jurisdiction of Gubeilu, an important doorway in the northeast defence line of the Ming Dynasty.
Description: The magnificence of this section is equal to that of Badaling. On this account, Jinshanling is named second to Badaling. Friends abroad and people at home now know this section. For three years in succession, funds have been allocated by the State to repair this section, aided by recent donations. Highway and tourist services are to be built. One of the most magnificent parts of the Great Wall will soon be open to the public.
Simatai Great Wall
Feature: Simatai, located in the north of Miyun county, 120km northeast of Beijing, holds the access to Gubeikou, a strategic pass in the eastern part of the Great Wall. Originally built during the Northern Qi dynasty (550-577) and rebuilt in the Hongwu years of the Ming dynasty by Qi Jiguang, this section of Great Wall is the only part of the Great Wall that keeps the original features of the Ming dynasty Great Wall.
Description: Simatai Great Wall is 5.4km long with 35 beacon towers. Ingeniously conceived and uniquely designed, this section of Great Wall, inimitable and diversified, has incorporated the different characteristics of each section of the Great Wall. Professor Luo Zhewe a famous expert on the Great Wall says: "The Great Wall is the best of the Chinese buildings, and Simatai is the best of the Great Wall."
Noted by the UNESCO as one of the World Cultural Heritages, Simatai Great Wall is a scenic spot for travelling, exploration and inspection. Now, this site is open to visitors from home and abroad.
