{Section II} Impregnable Pass, History of the Great Wall
“The sole strategic gateway for Yanjing and Shengjing, the number one pass of the Great Wall” is the tribute bequeathed on Shanhaiguan, a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage and a state-level city of fame, history and culture. Our predecessors produced a splendid landscape picture scroll to depict the magnificence of this land: its high mountains, open seas, winding Great Wall and impregnable pass. Today this historical picture scroll captures the essence of the strategic importance and magnificence of the Great Wall.
