Details of Badaling Great Wall Attractions

History Badaling has been an important military center since ancient times. It is a strategic location. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Great Wall was built here to defend against the intrusion of northern ethnic groups. The remains of the wall and piers and abutments can still be seen today. Its direction is generally consistent with the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty today. Badaling is a mountain pass with many peaks and peaks in Jundu Mountain. "Chang'an Night Talk" of the Ming Dynasty said: The road divides from here and extends in all directions, so it is named Badaling. It is the highest mountain in Guanshan. "This shows the geographical strategic position of Badaling. In order to strengthen defense, the Ming Dynasty carried out construction of the Badaling Great Wall for more than 80 years, and transferred the famous anti-Japanese general Qi Jiguang to the north to command the defense of the Great Wall. After more than 80 years of construction of the Badaling Great Wall It has become a strict defense system with connected cities, facing each other with piers and fortresses, guarding the city, and providing beacon fire alarms.
