NOTES: This part of the defensive Great Wall is 1.4 miles and connects Juyongguan Pass in the west and Gubeikou Great Wall in the east. This section of the wall was first built during the Northern Qi dynasty (550 - 557) and was rebuilt to strengthen its defensive potential in 1569 during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644).
