Jiayuguan

Coming to Jiayuguan, one would think of seeing the last pass of the magnificent Great Wall of our motherland. However, there are three attractions in Jiayuguan, one is the first pier of the Great Wall, one is the overhanging Great Wall, and the other is the main Jiayuguan city. These three attractions use a joint ticket, which can be used once purchased. We found a taxi locally and agreed to visit these three attractions for 100 yuan. The taxi driver introduced us to the general situation of the three attractions along the way, which deepened our understanding based on the homework we had done. The first stop is the first pier of the Great Wall. This place is known as the starting point of the Great Wall. In fact, at the Old Dragon Head of Shanhaiguan, there is also such a claim. This is not important, what is important is that this is indeed the starting or ending point of the Great Wall. Whether it's the first pier or the overhanging Great Wall behind, they are all built with earth. After thousands of years of wind, frost, rain and snow, the earth Great Wall is as hard as a rock. There is a river at the first pier, which winds through the deep ravine. It originates from the Qilian Mountains and Heishan, according to the Xiongnu language, it is called "Taolai River". Although the riverbed is dry and the water flow has become a stream, it also shows the beauty of nature in the cliffs on both sides. The overhanging Great Wall is very spectacular, built on two mountains. The city wall is made of earth from the nearby Heishan. The majesty of the Great Wall shows the weapon of the year against the enemy. The last stop is Jiayuguan City. This is where the pass is located. It is said that no one has broken this city for six hundred years. Due to time constraints, waiting to catch the train to Dunhuang, hurriedly write a few paragraphs and post a few pictures.
