Jiayuguan
Standing at the westernmost end of the Great Wall, Jiayuguan is an architectural marvel and a key historical landmark. Constructed during the Ming Dynasty, this formidable fortress was a crucial military stronghold along the Silk Road, guarding the passage between the vast desert and the fertile lands to the east. The fort’s imposing walls and intricate watchtowers offer a glimpse into the strategic genius of ancient Chinese military architecture. Visitors can explore the grandiose structure, walk along its ancient walls, and ascend its towers for panoramic views of the surrounding desert landscape. Jiayuguan not only showcases the grandeur of historical fortifications but also serves as a gateway to understanding China’s historical frontier defense and Silk Road heritage.
