About this activity

The wonderful Juyongguan part of Great Wall of China was first built around 700 years ago during the Ming dynasty. The construction of the Great Wall was built for defending against nomadic incursion, and it is also regarded as the number one China highlight. The sacred way is often lined with amazing stone statues which are wonderful decorations for the starting point of the attraction: Ming tombs.
