It is also the most preferred place for photographers. Located on the junction of Miyun County of Beijing and Luanping County of Hebei province, Jinshanling Great Wall is 10.5 km (6.5 miles) in length and has 5 passes, 67 watch towers and 3 beacon towers. This section is featured by its wildness, dilapidated walls and unique structures, which make hiking on this section a bit difficult. You should be in moderately good shape to get through, but this amazing Jinshanling Great Wall hike is worth of your effort.
Firstly you may stop at the Crenel Building (Zhuanduokou Tower), which has the vital importance for military strategists in history as a fortress. Here, you can see many precious inscribed bricks indicating when and which military designation built the wall. The next stop will be Xiyu Tower. Seeing the devastated walls, you may get a feeling of dreariness here. Through Xiyu Tower, you will get to Shalingkou, where you will see the famous Black Tower, whose structure is a little bit different from other watchtowers. Passing by lots of shooting and loop holes with various kinds of designs, such as peach, sagittate and zigzag shapes, you will come to the East Terrance, which is the pride of Jinshangling Great Wall and also of the whole Great Wall. Here you can also overlook the West Terrance, where a Chinese stunt actor Mr. Ke Shouliang flew over this wall by motorcycle in 1992.
On the way to the famous Kufang Tower, you will walk across some fences, about 2.5 meters (8.2 feet), named Barrier Wall as one defense of the Great Wall. Kufang Tower is a special and larger watchtower and the most representative military facility on the Great Wall. On the tower’s flank, you will see a semicircle war terrace, with intensive shooting holes, which is the third line of defense.
