Things To Do: Great Wall
  • Tip Rating:
  • In Shanhaiguan the Great Wall comes down from the mountains and dives into the Chinese Sea. It builds part of the ancient city wall of Shanhaiguan, which still exists. The city gate under the Great Wall is called "The last Gate under the Heaven" = "Tian xia Guan".

    A walk on this part of the city wall give you great views of the Great Wall meandering down the near hills.

  • Tip Rating:
  • Here you can see (when you enlarge this photo) the Great Wall on top of the mountains, winding its way around the peaks. In front is the City Wall of Shanhaiguan.

    Things To Do: Fishing
  • Tip Rating:
  • Not far from the city on the ocean are little fisher villages. I think they mainly go for lobsters. The boats looked very ancient. I wonder, whether they still use them today. I visited Shanhaiguan in 1993.
