Stretching over 26 km, Shanhaiguan is fortified with seven castles: Guancheng, Dongluo, Xiluo, Nanyi, Beiyi, Weiyuan, and Ninghai. The site is encompassed by walls measuring 4,769 meters in length, 11.6 meters in height, and over 10 meters in thickness, standing as a testament to its formidable historical significance.

Next, we'll head to Laolongtou, situated in the Bohai Sea, 4 kilometers south of Shanhaiguan City. It marks the eastern entrance of the Ming Dynasty Great Wall. The most iconic structure here is Chenghai Tower, aptly named "old dragon head" due to the Great Wall being likened to a giant dragon. Laolongtou is a significant segment of the Great Wall, forming a defensive horn with Jiaoshan to the north and Weiyuan to the east, safeguarding Shanhaiguan City. Throughout history, many emperors have visited this site, leaving behind rich tales and historical significance. Your guide will provide detailed explanations of the site's history, architectural features, and its role in ancient Chinese defense strategies, enhancing your understanding and appreciation of this cultural landmark.
