Brief introduction of scenic spots in Laolongtou scenic spot

The scenic spots of Laolongtou Scenic Area are briefly introduced as follows:

Laolongtou is located 5 kilometers south of Shanhaiguan District, Qinhuangdao City. It is the eastern part of the Great Wall in Ming Dynasty and the only land and sea military defense system of the Great Wall in Wan Li, which integrates mountains, seas, customs and cities. To the east, it is connected with the nine gates of the Great Wall on the water, and enters Shicheng into the sea, just like a dragon head exploring the sea and making waves, hence the name "Old Dragon Head". Laolongtou is 4 kilometers away from Shanhaiguan.

In the Ming Dynasty, the Great Wall spanned mountains and sent a dragon into the Bohai Sea, so it was called the "old dragon head". The old faucet consists of Shicheng, Jinglutai, Nanhai Kouguan and Chenghailou. The terrain of the old dragon head is high and steep, and there is a "Shicheng into the sea" built by Qi Jiguang, the main commander of Jiyun Town in the Ming Dynasty. The most famous building is Chenghai Tower, which is known as "The Great Wall connects the sea and the sky, and people fly to the top of the pole".

With a total area of 700 mu, Laolongtou Scenic Area consists of Shicheng, Haishen Temple, Jinglutai, Nanhaikou, Chenghailou, Ninghai City and Binhai Great Wall. Chenghailou is the commanding height of the old faucet, and it is also a scenic spot to watch the sea. Laolongtou is the eastern starting point of Zhen Ji Town, the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty, located in the coastal highland 5 kilometers south of Shanhaiguan.

It is called "Old Dragon" here because people compare the Great Wall of Wan Li to a dragon. The dragon walked through the desert, climbed Helan and Taihang Mountain, descended from Yanshan Mountain, flew to Bohai Sea, tied a knot in the corridor of western Liaoning, erected mountains and seas, and then led its neck into the sea. This part of the sea is an old dragon.

Inside the old faucet, there are scenic spots to play.
