Introduction of Badaling Great Wall Scenic Spot in Beijing (tickets. The Great Wall is a symbol of the Chinese nation. It is 12000 miles long and is one of the greatest buildings in the world. The Great Wall was built during the Qin Shihuang period. After the supplementary construction of past dynasties, almost all the Great Wall we can see now was built in the Ming Dynasty. Badaling Great Wall is the best preserved and most representative section of the Great Wall in Ming Dynasty. It is the essence of the Great Wall in Ming Dynasty. It is the outpost of Juyongguan, an important pass of the Great Wall, with an altitude of1015m. The terrain is dangerous and the city is strong. Has always been a battleground for military strategists. Climbing the Badaling Great Wall, you can have a panoramic view of the rolling mountains and the majestic northern mountains. The Great Wall is majestic because of the mountains, and the mountains are more steep because of the Great Wall.

As early as 196 1, it was announced by the State Council as a national key cultural relics protection unit. From 65438 to 0988, Badaling Wan Li Great Wall was listed as a world human cultural heritage by the United Nations. 199 1, Badaling ranks first among the top 40 scenic spots in China.

Badaling Great Wall is located in Yanqing County, north of Beijing, more than 70 kilometers away from Beijing. Expressway passes through the mountains, and it takes 40 minutes to drive from Beijing. Here, the Great Wall winds like a dragon along the ridge between mountains, and beacon towers and enemy towers are densely covered. The wall is 7.8 meters high and 7.8 meters wide at the top. Visitors can go to the city to enjoy the grandeur of the Great Wall and the vastness and arduousness of the project.

Badaling has been an important military strategic place since ancient times. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the Great Wall was built here to prevent the invasion of northern nationalities. Up to now, there are still relics of city walls and piers, and their trend is roughly the same as that of the Great Wall today. Badaling is a mountain depression, where the mountains are mountainous. The night talk in Chang 'an in Ming Dynasty said: The road diverges from here and extends in all directions, hence the name Badaling, which is the highest mountain in Guanshan. "Visible Badaling geographical strategic position. In order to strengthen the defense, the Ming Dynasty built the Badaling Great Wall for more than 80 years, and transferred the famous anti-Japanese Qi Jiguang to the north to command the defense of the Great Wall. After more than 80 years of construction, Badaling Great Wall has become a strict defense system, which is connected with the city, facing the pier and battery, guarding the city and warning the fire. Historically, Badaling Great Wall was the gateway to guard Juyong Pass. From the Badaling Great Wall to today's Nankou, there is a 40-mile-long canyon in the middle. The related city Juyongguan was built in a canyon, hence the name "Guan Gou". The Badaling Great Wall, which truly grasps the pass, stands at the highest point at the northern end of Guangou. The two peaks here are sandwiched in the middle, open and commanding, and the situation is extremely dangerous. The ancients said that "looking at Juyongguan from Badaling is like building a collar to see a well" and "the danger of Juyong country is not in Guancheng, but in Badaling". It can be seen that Juyongguan was just a city at that time, and the real Great Wall was built in Badaling. Badaling Pass's special terrain has become a battleground for military strategists in past dynasties. Therefore, it is of great strategic significance to build the Great Wall at this time. Badaling is the witness of many important events in history. After the first emperor Qin Shihuang came to Jieshi from the east, he took Datong from Badaling. Xiao Huanghou drove back to Xianyang and visited the emperors of Yuan Dynasty, Ming Dynasty, Li Zicheng, and Qing Dynasty who traveled to and from Beijing and Shangdu twice a year ... Badaling is the only place to pass. In modern history, Cixi made a westward expedition to cry at Badaling, Zhan Tianyou presided over the construction of the first railway in China-Zhangjing Railway, and Dr. Sun Yat-sen boarded the Badaling Great Wall, leaving many historical allusions and precious historical memories for today.

Badaling Great Wall is a part of Wan Li Great Wall, a great defense project in ancient China. Built in the 18th year of Hongzhi in Ming Dynasty (1505), it was renovated during Jiajing and Wanli periods in Ming Dynasty. This section of the Great Wall is steep and commanding, which is an important military pass in the Ming Dynasty and an important barrier for the capital Beijing.

Badaling Great Wall Bowl is built on the mountain, with ups and downs and twists and turns. Badaling is located at the outer gate of Juyongguan, and the east and west gates are closed. The east is called Juyongguan Town, and the west is called "North Gate Lock Key". Guancheng is narrow in the east and wide in the west. The Great Wall was built on the mountain from the platform of "North Gate Lock and Key". The walls vary in height, with an average height of about 7.5 meters and a top width of about 6 meters, which can accommodate five horses and ten people in parallel. The walls of this section of the Great Wall are paved with neat boulders, some of which are 2 meters long and weigh hundreds of pounds. The interior is filled with mud and stones, and the ground at the top of the wall is covered with square bricks, which is very flat. A crib with a height of 1.7m is built on the outer side of the wall top, with a lookout hole above, a shooting hole below and a building wall inside. Every other wall, there is a fortress-like square platform. The city platform is high and low, and the high one is called the enemy hug, which is the place where the watchman and the sergeant stay; The low one is called the wall platform, which is almost as high as the city wall but protrudes outside the wall, surrounded by piles, and is a place for patrolling and keeping watch. There is also a smoke pier, that is, a beacon tower, which was used to transmit early warning signals in ancient times.

When you climb the Great Wall of Wan Li, you can see that the Great Wall at your feet twists and turns along the mountain, just like a giant dragon rolling and crawling on a continuous mountain peak. The natural landscape here is also very distinctive, with beautiful scenery in spring, summer, autumn and winter. There are the most flowers in spring, and the green Dieyun in summer ┄ The road is full of red decay and green decay, and the love for Lindane is deeply dyed, and the breath of autumn is very clear. In winter, the snow-capped mountains are vast, the jade is long and the scenery is beautiful. Looking at that mountain, I feel infinite in ancient and modern times, but I don't understand the difference between today and ancient times. Wan Li, the Great Wall of Wan Li, is 2000 years long. If you want to see the ages, the Great Wall has no heroes.

"You are not a hero until you reach the Great Wall". It is unthinkable to go to Beijing without visiting the Great Wall, just like going to Shanghai without visiting the City God Temple. So far, more than 300 world famous people, including Nixon and Margaret Thatcher, have climbed Badaling to enjoy the beautiful scenery here. Can you miss it?

Badaling fortress

Badaling

Located at the north (outer) mouth of Guangou, Nantong can reach Beijing, Yanqing in the north, Datong in the west and Yongning in the east. Because of its "road from here", extending in all directions, hence the name. The highest peak of Badaling is 1000 meters above sea level, and the two peaks are at the mountain pass, which controls traffic, and there is a trend of "one person guarding it and ten thousand people can't force it". The ancients said: "The danger of Juyong is not in Guan, but in Badaling", which is true. In ancient times, Badaling has always been a strategic place to defend the Central Plains, and the Yuan and Ming dynasties were heavily guarded.

Guancheng (Wengcheng)

The Badaling Great Wall has two gates, namely "Juyongguan Town" in the east and "North Gate Lock Key" in the west. The two doors are 43.9 meters apart, and the urn covers an area of 5,000 square meters with an altitude of 600 meters. The existing Guancheng is a building in the 18th year of Hongzhi in Ming Dynasty (1505), and it is one of the most famous passes of the Great Wall in Wan Li. The word "Juyongguan Waizhen" refers to the outpost of Juyongguan here. The word "the key to the North Gate" is typical of Kou Zhun, the prime minister of the Song Dynasty. After the Song and Liao Dynasties made peace, Kou Zhun did not work in the DPRK, but came to Daming House as a guard. The envoy of Liao State passed by Daming Mansion and saw Kou Zhun here. He was shocked and asked, How did the Prime Minister come here? what can I do for you? . Kou Zhun said to Liao Chen seriously, "There is nothing in the DPRK. The key is locked in the north gate. Not delicious, unless it is a small town! " Later, people called the border towns in the north "the north gate lock key".

Chadaocheng

Near Badaling Railway Station, there is a magnificent and solid castle, which is the outpost headquarters of Chadao City, the "north gate lock key" Guancheng. According to Ju Yong Zhi Lue, "Badaling is a forbidden place for Ju Yong, and the fork in the road is the barrier of Badaling". At that time, there were three "general commanders" and 800 soldiers stationed at Badaling Great Wall, which played a very important role in military defense.

Ancient cannon

Chen Zhan is near the gate of Badaling Guancheng. There are five iron cannons, which were one of the advanced weapons at that time. The largest gun barrel is 2.85 meters long, with a caliber of 105 mm and a range of 1000 meters, which is very powerful. The gun body is engraved with the words "Give Great General Shenwei", which was made in the 11th year of Chongzhen in Ming Dynasty (1638). The gun was shipped from Zhang Bao, more than ten miles east of Badaling, at 1958. The other four corbel cannons were unearthed during the renovation of the Great Wall in 1957, and hundreds of shells were also unearthed, all from the Ming Dynasty. According to "Wu Beizhi", "In ancient times, there was an artificial stone with a wooden frame shaped like a tiger crouching. Later, artillery was used. The gun body was short and thick, and the famous tiger crouched in the gun, commonly known as frog gun, which was one of the weapons at that time.

city wall

Badaling Great Wall is the most typical and majestic section of Wan Li Great Wall in Ming Dynasty. The outer walls of the city walls are made of bricks or granite strips weighing more than 2,000 kilograms, and the inside is rammed with earth and gravel, which is particularly strong and tidy. The average height of the wall is 7.8 meters, the thickness of the wall base is 6.4 meters and the width of the wall top is 5.8 meters, which can accommodate five horses and ten people. On the outside of the top of the wall, there are crenels and crenels 1.7 to 2 meters high. There is a small hole on the lower side of the crib, called perforation, which is used for archery. At the same time, there is a building wall on the inside of the top of the wall, commonly known as the parapet, which plays a role in safety protection. On one side of the wall, a coupon cave door is opened at intervals, and the stone steps inside can climb to the top of the wall. The wall is paved with square bricks and filled with lime, which is very neat and difficult to grow. There are drains on both sides and water jets flowing inward. From the perspective of military defense, all kinds of buildings are extremely exquisite and impregnable, which fully embodies the great creative ability of the working people in ancient China.

Chengtai

Also known as wall pier. Refers to a platform building slightly higher than the top of a long city wall, surrounded by towers, piles and perforations. This is the place where ancient soldiers patrol and stand guard, and it is also the place where they defend themselves in case of war. For example, the platform at the top of Badaling Gate is the city platform.

Enemy radio station

Also known as watchtowers and bunkers, they are built at the top of the Great Wall. Generally square or rectangular, divided into two layers. The upper floor is equipped with a lookout and a shooting hole, and is equipped with signal facilities for setting off fireworks; There are ticket gates and stairs on the lower floor, which can be used for soldiers to rest temporarily or store weapons. It is one of the important military facilities along the Great Wall.

Combat platform

The traffic arteries or places with dangerous terrain built along the Great Wall are all one-story, two-story and three-story bunker buildings with different scales. It can store strategic materials such as weapons and ammunition, which is more important than the watchtower. According to the Records of Four Towns and Three Guans written by Liu Xiaozu in Ming Dynasty, under the planning and supervision of Qi Jiguang, 1200 enemy platforms and battle platforms were built along the Great Wall from Shanhaiguan to Beijing (3000 were originally planned). When the war breaks out, we can "attack from top to bottom with firearms, Buddha machines and auxiliary guns" and "replace weapons with artillery". A combat platform generally needs 30 people to guard the platform and 30 people to guard the stack, divided into 6 groups and 300 kilograms of gunpowder. In addition, there are thousands of arrows, iron bars, large and small stones on the battlefield, and food and water for a month. This platform facility, which is "made for a long time, refined, and skillful in mind", can not only attack but also defend, and can closely cooperate with the military facilities such as the city platform and the enemy platform (watchtower) on the Great Wall to form a dense firepower network, greatly enhance the combat power, effectively block the enemy's attack, and play a very important strategic and tactical role in military defense.

beacon tower

As an independent bunker, it is built in dangerous places on both sides of the Great Wall or on hills with broad vision, and is an important part of the Great Wall fortifications. Generally, one beacon tower pier is built every five to ten miles, and there are five beacon towers in each gradation, which is a special facility for setting off fireworks, alarming and transmitting military information. In case of enemy situation, burning cigarettes during the day is called "embarrassment" and lighting at night is called "bonfire". It is said that in ancient times, wolf dung was mixed together to burn smoke, and its smoke could go straight into the sky without scattering, so the beacon tower was also? Quot Wolf Yantai "is still a smoke mound. From the second year of Chenghua in the Ming Dynasty (1466), sulfur and saltpeter were added to fireworks, and guns were also fired. According to the number of enemy troops, the number of guns is also clearly defined. About 100 enemies burned a cigarette and fired a shot; Five hundred people raised two cigarettes and two cannons; /kloc-more than 0/000 people fired three cigarettes and three cannons ... As soon as the fireworks were set off, they were lit one by one, and the command organization located in the distance could quickly understand the enemy's situation. This is an effective way of scientific communication in ancient times. China adopted it in the Zhou Dynasty about 2,700 years ago.
