Simatai Great Wall
Known for its dangerous, steep, and astonishing position, the 19 kilometers long Simatai
Great Wall has 35 watchtowers. It is recognized as the best preserved portion of Ming Great Wall. Built by the famous general Qi Jiguang, the Simatai Great Wall was confirmed by the UNESCO as the "Primitive Great Wall."
Simatai Great Wall is separated into two parts by a valley which are known as the east and the west parts. The west part appears gentle with 20 well-preserved watchtowers dotted along the wall. In comparison, the east part is steep and cliff like. 15 watchtowers are scattered on the 1, 000 meters high peaks. The main attractions include the Watching Beijing Tower, Fairy Tower, Heavenly Ladder, and Sky Bridge. From the 986 meters high Watching Beijing Tower, one can view the famous scenic wonder of "White Snow on the Great Wall" in winter as well as the beautiful skyline of the city of Beijing in the south. The wall bricks here carry the date on which they were made and the code of the armies that made them.
Simatai Great Wall Park provides the invisible cable car, the iron rope bridge for viewing the valley scenery, a boating service on the Yuanyang (Mandarin duck, a bird symbolizing love in China) Lake. Furthermore, here is a good place for family gatherings or company meetings. Many international events are held here each year and include the Simatai Great Wall International Gliding Festival in June, the Great Wall Cultural Festival in August, and the Great Wall Climbing Tournament in September.
