The East End of the Great Wall: Jiaoshan Scenic Area

#SeptemberGoodPlaces2025 Jiaoshan Mountain marks the eastern starting point of the Great Wall. The mountain is majestic, and the wall winds its way up the ridge, like a giant dragon reaching the Bohai Sea. Climbing Jiaoshan Mountain in the early morning, the sea mist rolls in, and the distant sea and the Great Wall complement each other, creating a truly magnificent spectacle. From the summit, the view stretches out into the distance, where the sea and sky merge into one. The Great Wall, shimmering in the morning light, evokes a sense of the weight of history and the grandeur of the frontier. Every brick seems to whisper, telling the ancient story of those who defended our homeland and reminding future generations of the resilience and unyielding spirit of this land.
