Gubeikou
Great Wall
There
are two section of Great Wall ,one was built during North
Qi Dynasty in 555,another was built at the beginning of 14
century during Ming Dynasty .The famous Simatai Great Wall
and Jingshanling Great Wall are just located
on the two ends
of this section which built during Ming Dynasty
and whose middle part is just the ruins of Gubeikou Great
Wall. The main mountain has two
peaks,they look like two tigers,one is set at east with face
upward,the other is set at west
with face downward. Great Wall is winding
between the back and forehead of two tigers.This secttion
of Great Wall also called Wohushan(meaning crouching tiger
mountain) Great Wall,it is
the exquisite part of Gubeikou Great Wall.Here,
the Great Wall is not being redecorated any more,every brick
has long history of more than 600
years and well preserved. On the beacon tower,the arched stone
top likes ancient fortress,at
all sides there are watching windows . When you climb to top
of the tower by ladder,sleep overnight in the starry sky,
it makes you feel just as Hamlet is reappearing. To stay on
the dark peak, to talk with the historical starry sky alone,how
miraculous it is.Here
the Great Wall is not likes the Great Wall at other places,
for here has been surrounded by abundant landscapes .Climb
to the top of mountain and look far afield,you can see the
silvery riverwinding among the green mountains; the group
of mountains beats the sky and breaks the clouds; the lakes
from afar gleam like fish scales in the clouds; the small
train under foot now hides,now appears; on the jade like fields,
dots of farmhouse are being scattered; smoke from the kitchen
chimneys curling upwards and outlining an elegant picture
of rurality. Here
is not renowned as Great Wall at Badaling or other places,so
here you wouldn’t feel as in the noisy cities where the mass
stream always flows. The tranquility at the ruins of the Great
Wall is really touching.From
here to Simatai Great Wall is 16 km,also is 16 km to Jinshanling
Great Wall,if you are interested ,you can go there along the
ruins of the Great Wall on foot.Here is the suburbs of Beijing,with
the villager’s daily works of special features.The cobble
built farmhouses ; hundreds years old temples and pavilions;clothing
factory whose clothes with “made in China”stamps are prevailed
all over the world; and all these are worth to visit.Like
sightseeing in Hu Tong of Beijing; to be guests and to chat
freely in the farmhouses,to make group pictures and have lunches
there;you are always welcomed. On
