Located in Luanping county, Hebei province, Jinshanling is the best preserved section of the Great Wall, with many original features. The earliest part of the wall was built in 1368, during the Ming Dynasty. What was once a method of defense has become a world famous paradise for photography enthusiasts, thanks to its magnificent views. [China.org.cn]
