The Great Wall you may not know about By Hu Dongmei in Yinchuan and Ye Zizhen | chinadaily.com.cn | Updated: 2021-03-02 17:18 Share CLOSE
Shizuishan in Northwest China s Ningxia Hui autonomous region is home to many Great Wall segments that are not widely known.
Built during Emperor Jiajing s reign during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), the Great Wall section in Shizuishan s Dawukou district extends more than 43 kilometers. It has 18 smoke towers and 75 wall fragments.
Li Zhigang, a resident of Shizuishan, noted that the wall in this area played an important role as a military bulwark against the Tartars.
Li used drones to record a variety of views of the Great Wall section.
