"Ju Yong Die Cui" (Chinese: 居庸叠翠): Juyongguan Great Wall in Green

 

The first and finest of the "Eight Great Sights of Yanjing" is the "Great Wall Surrounded by Lush Greenery at the Juyong Pass." This comprises a small river valley approximately 15 kilometers long which is crossed by the lofty peaks and lush mountain vegetation. The undulating mountain tops stretches into the distance like leaping sea waves, creating a scene of outstanding natural beauty. As early as the Jin Dynasty this spot was known by its present title.
