Shanhaiguan Ancient City Scenic Area


Shanhaiguan is known as "the first pass in the world", "the throat of the border county, and the guarantee of the capital". It echoes Jiayuguan thousands of miles away and is famous all over the world. This ancient city wall has written too many heroic stories.

The construction area of ​​a street in the ancient city of Ming and Qing Dynasties in Shanhaiguan is 100,000 square meters. Here, you can feel the charm of the ancient Zisai Xiongguan, experience the pride of breaking through the east of the Guandong, and listen to the historical allusion of "becoming a beauty in anger".

There are four main gates and various defensive buildings. Including the "No. 1 Pass in the World" Archery Tower, Jingbian Tower, Muying Tower, Linlu Tower, Wengcheng and the 1350-meter-long Ming Dynasty Plain Great Wall and other landscapes, there are also many stories here. The past time has accumulated and accumulated, and the towers are still , but the story has been passed down to this day.




This street has many street shops, stories, and some traditional handicrafts with traces of time. This street is the best place to take pictures and wear Hanfu. The evening light is reflected on the eaves of the street corner. It turns out that time can really be turned back , The young children walking on this street let people see the world of fireworks here.


Eat a meal of intangible cultural heritage - Shanhaiguan Hunguo

What is the rhythm of eating muddy pot under the tower of the first pass in the world? What's more, the food is still intangible cultural heritage. You must not be confused about this messy meal, and you must figure out the ins and outs.

The only food recommended by the locals is not seafood, but a hodgepodge hot pot called "hunguo".

Mix and match sauerkraut, white meat and seafood, the pot is beautifully arranged, and the appetite is full at a glance. This method is a bit like Northeast stew, but it is better than random stew. This extremely delicious hot pot does not mix with dipping materials at all. The cooking time is long, and the food inside can be eaten immediately. The name of the muddy pot is said to be because it is a mix and match, so it is named "hundred pot".

Hunguo, also known as Hunguo, is a kind of assorted hotpot, but the Shanhaiguan area is the most authentic, so it is often called Shanhaiguan Hunguo. It is said that Shanhaiguan people have been eating this kind of muddy pot for a hundred years. It is said that the Hunguo in Shanhaiguan was a food method brought from outside the customs when the Qing army entered the customs. The chefs in the Qing army used iron pots to cook a large pot of soup and served them to the soldiers. Later, people discovered that this cooking method, which is mainly sauerkraut and added meat, is not only delicious, but also goes with rice. Over time, a kind of mix-and-match hot pot has become popular among the people.

The Hongyun Market is right next to the Hunguo. Eat the delicious Hunguo and take a stroll around the Hongyun Market. You can often see Miss Gufeng here, and you can find all kinds of handmade and delicacies here. You can just take a stroll here It's been a long time shopping, and there are too many interesting and interesting things.



Watching the situational light and shadow show of the Great Wall of Mountains and Seas (3D viewing with naked eyes)

The beauty of Shanhaiguan once again refreshed my vision.


The ancient Xiongguan is still there today, but now it is a sea of ​​fireworks and lights in the world


In the vast vicissitudes of time, a national tide light show is used to interpret the view of mountains and seas from ancient times to the present.

The first mountain of the Great Wall - Jiaoshan Great Wall

The Jiaoshan Great Wall is about 3 kilometers north of the ancient city of Shanhaiguan. It is the remaining vein of Yanshan Mountain.

The bright moon in Qin Dynasty and the pass in Han Dynasty, the people who marched thousands of miles have not yet returned. The Jiaoshan Great Wall was built in the early years of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty. It extends 1536 meters from Hanmenguan at the foot of the mountain to Dapingding. Most of the city walls are made of local materials, built with rubble, and some are built with city bricks and long strips of stone. The height and width of the Great Wall at Jiaoshan have obvious characteristics of following the mountain.

We chose to get up at 6:00 am to climb the Great Wall of Jiaoshan. The road was full of lush greenery, and there were crowds of tourists. This morning, we climbed the Great Wall inadvertently facing the rising sun, which made our daughter feel happy and lucky. The Jiaoshan Great Wall is famous for its danger. There is a section that needs to step on a circular iron ladder to go up, and it also needs to go down like this when going down. This makes people want to climb the Jiaoshan Great Wall. I always want to see it. What kind of scenery?


The beautiful Jiaoshan Great Wall has observation decks and shooting holes everywhere. Looking from here, you can see beautiful mountains and green waters, the coolness of the morning and the brilliance of the rising sun. The beauty here, every corner is a landscape.

Since ancient times, the road has been full of dangers, and the pass without danger is in Jiaoshan. There are five enemy towers and battle towers, and one pass. Looking far away, I think back then that there was both wisdom and bravery here, and how many heroic stories were recited in the shadow of swords and swords.

It is said that viewing the sunrise at the Great Wall at Jiaoshan is the best, but I got up late after all, and the sun was already high when I reached the top of the mountain. I can only look forward to the next fate, to see beautiful days at the Jiaoshan Great Wall.



The Great Wall in the Sea—Old Dragon Head


The Great Wall spans thousands of miles across the dragon's head, and you can go upstairs with your eyes. The ground is close to the penghu fairy, and the wine is added to the sea house. The strong wind blows the sun and the clouds rush together, and the huge waves empty the snow and float. Borrow the majestic waves pouring Lei blocks, and watch the silver hook on the new moon.

Now I come to Laolongtou again, looking around, there are still crowds and tourists. Laolongtou is located on the coast of Bohai Sea, 4 kilometers south of Shanhaiguan City. It is the eastern starting point of the Great Wall of Ji Town in Ming Dynasty. The "Stone City into the Sea" was built by Qi Jiguang, the chief soldier of Ji Town.

Entering the sea, Shicheng is like a dragon's head protruding into the sea, making waves and dancing waves, so it is called "Old Dragon Head". The Old Dragon Head Great Wall is also the only section of the Great Wall in the sea in the Ming Dynasty. Known as "the eternal wonder in human history".

The old dragon head is majestic, the beach air is fresh, the sand is soft and the tide is flat, it is an excellent place to watch the sunrise at sea. Ninghai City is an important part of the old leader's military defense system, and it is the most complete and largest Ming Dynasty military camp in China.

In the city, there is the barracks area——Longwu Camp; the mansion of the military officer——the Garrison Department and the General Administration Department; there is the Xiangong Temple for offering sacrifices to pioneer generals, and there are also Dragon King Temple and Guandi Temple for gods to protect them.

This is also the only naval and military defense system of the Great Wall that integrates mountains, seas, passes and cities. In more than 600 years of changes, Laolongtou has written a history that has gone through many vicissitudes. Laolongtou Scenic Area covers a total area of ​​700 mu and consists of seven parts: Stone City into the Sea, Sea God Temple, Jinglu Terrace, Nanhaikou, Chenghai Tower, Ninghai City and Binhai Great Wall.




The Sea God Temple is the prayer for happiness and safety for those who go to sea. Here you can overlook the sea. In addition to praying for blessings, the pavilion behind the main hall can also be used for people to rest and listen to the sound of the waves.


After hundreds of years of vicissitudes, this former naval and army fortress is now a place for people to play on the beach and coast. People collect shells, swim in the sea, and feel the coolness of summer and the blueness of the sea.

Breakthrough Guandong Museum

In the modern history of China, there were three major waves of immigration, namely: "Crossing the Guandong, going west, and going to Nanyang".

Taking my daughter into the "Crossing the Guandong" museum, those years of blood and tears, struggling for survival, all parting is parting from life to death, those sufferings are how many lives resist with their whole lives...



Perhaps, only the lyrics of "Crossing the Guandong" can represent my mood at the moment:

Ice and snow have already covered my footprints

Distant cooking smoke swaying warm call

The wind can't break my sight of looking back

Homeland seems to be on a long journey forever


In the precarious late Qing Dynasty, the lower reaches of the Yellow River suffered disasters year after year. People from Shandong, Hebei and other places migrated to the Northeast region on a large scale, which is called "Crossing the Guandong" in history. Because this violated the imperial court's "Forbidden Customs Order", it was called "Crossing".

The meaning of "chuang": Cong Ma Zong Men means that horses rush through the gate, which means that the refugees were forced to leave their homes due to famine and famine. However, crossing the Shanhaiguan Pass and arriving outside the customs does not mean that the difficult life is over, it may just be the beginning of "breaking through".

The meaning of "Guan": Thousands of refugees have come all the way and gathered in Shanhaiguan, which leans against Yanshan Mountain in the north, connects with Bohai Sea in the south, and strangles the throat from North China to Northeast. The meaning of "East": specifically refers to the three provinces of Jilin, Liaoning, and Heilongjiang, which are named because they are located in the east of Shanhaiguan.

Dreaming Back to the Former Dynasty, Grand Ceremony Reappears

The welcome performance in the ancient city of Shanhaiguan is an indispensable and highly ornamental program in the ancient city. Reminiscing about the past and thinking about the present, the ancient charm is still lingering on the city wall.

Emperor Qianlong, who had returned from paying homage to his ancestral mausoleum outside the customs, was welcomed by the soldiers and civilians when he passed Shanhaiguan. Emperor Qianlong and Liu Yong met here and commended the ministers who had made contributions to the people of Shanhaiguan.

A hundred years have passed to meet each other, and the grand ceremony welcomes guests from the past to the present. This performance welcomes tourists into the scenic area and integrates into the surroundings of the actors, as if they have traveled back to the Ming and Qing Dynasties.



Unfinished return trip

The history of the beautiful Shanhaiguan has been recorded in the annals of history, and its uniqueness has been seen by the world, and its beauty, which has been continuously precipitated by technology and time, is shining in great splendor.
