The Jinshanling Great Wall is located 130 kilometers to the northeast of Beijing. It used to be a sound defensive system including barrier walls, battlement walls, watchtowers, gun emplacements, shooting holes, horse blocking walls, and branch cities. Today, it is renowned as the “Paradise of Photographers” and a popular travel destination because of its magnificent appearance and the intoxicating scenery.
Jinshanling can also be visited as part of a two-day trip to the Chengde Mountain Resort.
