Baiyangyu Great Wall

白羊峪长城

A well-preserved stretch of Ming Great Wall in Qian'an, combining a valley village, passes and wild wall landscapes.

The Baiyangyu Great Wall lies in the Yanshan mountains north of Qian'an City. It is part of the Ming-dynasty Jizhen Great Wall. The pass was built in the Hongwu reign, and the surviving walls, watchtowers and water gates have been partly restored and opened to visitors, while some unrestored original sections remain. The scenic area also includes the Baiyangyu ancient village, a waterfall and valley landscapes, and in autumn the hillsides are covered in red foliage. Admission is confirmed by the scenic area. The steps up the wall are steep, so sturdy non-slip shoes are essential. It lies about 80 kilometres from central Tangshan.
