The world's most powerful pass, no other

🏙️Introduction to Juyongguan Great Wall An important pass of the Great Wall, Juyongguan has been known as "the most important pass in the world" and "the northern gate of Yangguo" since ancient times due to its steep terrain. 1. Reasons for recommendation👍🏻❤️ 1. Known as "the most magnificent pass in the world", it is majestic and imposing. 2. There is no cable car, so it is suitable for tourists who like to climb the mountain on foot. 3. Compared with the Badaling Great Wall, there are fewer tourists, so it is more convenient to take photos without worrying about the background being full of heads. 4. It is more majestic than Badaling and has higher steps. 5. There is also a section of the Great Wall on water in the scenic area, and the scenery is absolutely amazing 👍🏻. 2. [Bus] Transportation 1. [Bus] Take bus No. 919 from Deshengmen to Juyongguan Great Wall Station; or take bus No. 879 or Changping No. 20 from Changping South Exit Station to Juyongguan Village Station, and walk about 300 meters forward. 2. [Car] Self-driving: Navigate and take the Beijing-Tibet Expressway G6 to Juyongguan Great Wall. The No. 1, 2, 3 parking lots and No. 2 parking lot in the scenic area are more convenient. 3. Opening hours Open all year round, 8:30-16:30 every day. 4. Tickets: Adult ticket is 40 yuan/person in peak season (4.1-10.31), 35 yuan/person in off-season (11.1-3.31). 5. Tour route 1. The best route: Start from Enemy Tower No. 7, and pass through Enemy Tower No. 8, toilet, Enemy Tower No. 9, West Hill Arrow Tower, Enemy Tower No. 10, toilet, Enemy Tower No. 11, Enemy Tower No. 12 (the highest point), toilet, Enemy Tower No. 13, and Enemy Tower No. 14. You can exit the scenic area here. If you want to continue the circular walk, you can pass the North Gate Tower: pass by Enemy Tower No. 1, Enemy Tower No. 2, Dongshan Arrow Tower, Enemy Tower No. 3, the toilet, and Enemy Tower No. 4 in turn. Since Enemy Tower No. 5 is temporarily blocked, there is a small path leading to the Water Gate Tower, and you can reach Enemy Tower No. 6 to end the circle. 2. Hiking route (no detour): It is recommended to go to the Watergate Tower to take some photos first, then return and climb from Tower No. 7 to Tower No. 14. 3. Water-watching route: Start from No. 6 enemy tower, cross the embankment, and climb to No. 1 enemy tower in turn. The route is relatively slow and suitable for people with average physical strength. ✅Nearby attractions 1.
