Juyong Pass, Beijing Overview

At a distance about 50 kilometres from Beijing, the Juyong Pass was one of the three strongest barriers of the Great Wall of China.

The original military structure was built back around 400 BCE, and was connected with the Great Wall of China around the 4th century. The pass also contained the Cloud Platform, a gate complex built by the Yuan Dynasty in 1342. This was subsequently destroyed, however, the white marble floor of the platform, as well as, intricate carvings on the arched portal and the platform can still be seen today. The mountains on both sides of the valley back in the day provided great strategic advantage, and today provide great scenic beauty.æ
