Must Appreciate Landscape

The Great Wall is divided into South and North lines. The mountains on the south line are extremely steep, almost straight up and down. From this, climbing the Great Wall will be reminded of Mr. Lu Xun's words: "There is no road in the world... "And the excitement of rock climbing in its own context.

It's not good to go up and down, so we suggest that we should work together in a high degree of teamwork. Climbing takes two to three hours a way. The North Arrow Button Line is a gentle mountain. The advantage of the North Houshan Road is that it does not have to trek hard to climb the towering enemy building. The mountains and green valleys can be seen from the bottom of your eyes, and you can feel the grandeur and grandeur as well. It is more comfortable to climb the mountain along the lush forest path.

Nine-Eye Tower

In the north of Beijing, 21 kilometers northwest of Chengguan Town, Huairou District, south foot of Heituo Mountain. It is located at the top of Flame Mountain at the junction of Huairou County and Yanqing County. Because the enemy building has nine arrow windows on each side, so the name. It is also called Wangjinglou because of its high mountains and the prospect of Beijing City on sunny days. It is one of the important crossings of the Great Wall. Elevation 1141 meters. There are kitchen and bedroom ruins in the building, and there are horse farms, horse drying farms and barracks (barracks) nearby. On the north side of the building, Xu Shen, an official of the Ming Dynasty, visited the marble tablets written in the area in the thirteenth year of Wanli (1585 A.D.). Nearby, there are dense vegetation, such as oak, linden, maple and so on. Coptis chinensis is produced. Wild animals include roe deer, goat, pheasant, squirrel, hare and so on. There are sidewalks to the old water pit in Xizhai Village, and townships to Badaohe to connect Fanqi Highway.

"Beijing Yanqing County Geographical Names" records: "Nine Eye Tower for the Ming Jiajing 20 (AD 1543) governor Wang Yijian, the middle of the red gate, West to the turnout Yangtoushan, east to Sihaiye, 160 miles long, set up five mouths, around the red gate to build 14 piers.

If there is a police in the four seas, gunfire will be raised in the South Ridge of the ridge, and it can reach Yongguan in an instant.

The lookout is 1.65 meters high and 0.5 meters wide. There are sergeants visiting the circular walkway with a width of 1.2 meters.

It is the junction of Xuan (Xuanfu, Xuanhua today), Ji (Jizhou, Beijing today) and Chang (Changping) three major military towns. It is the junction of the Great Wall inside and outside. Such an important position is incomparable to all the enemy buildings of the Great Wall. In addition, there are 24 inscriptions left on the nine-eye stairs, most of which are poems praising its grandeur and expressing the strong mind of the attackers. As an enemy building, it is unique to write so many poems. Ancient militarists and poets were so fond of an enemy building, which also showed the status of Jiuyanlou was different from others.

The surrounding mountains fluctuate and fall, ravines are vertical and horizontal. Nearby, the trees are densely colored, and the waves are gradually pushing forward; in the distance, clouds are steaming like smoke and mist. In the southeast, one of the mountains is the Yanqihu Reservoir. After the smoke in the southwest is Beijing, which is just like what the ancients said, "Shenjing is ahead, the imperial palace is in sight".

Soon you can park in the village, but it's a little far from the mountain. On the right, there's another village for you to choose from, and on the other hand, there's a special parking lot, which is close to the mountain.

Explanation: The bridge shop mentioned above on the north line needs special attention, otherwise it's easy to miss it. The arrow button from the North should also be worn from the village. Several villages here are quiet. At most, there are several elder sisters peddling their own millet or ballast. There aren't many people around. There are also some people who live in a farmhouse on Friday or Saturday nights. Although these villages are not very large and have limited reception capacity, they are still clean and real.

If you don't want to climb the mountain, you can play badminton, drink tea, play killing games, chat till sunset. You must climb through the village under the mountain. The author did not climb from here, feeling that one shop after another here is too noisy, does not belong to the pure mountain climbing flavor. It is said that many people come to eat red trout.

Practical information

Eat under the mountain

South Line: Apart from the restaurants at the foot of the mountain, there are also many places to eat red trout along the way from Mutianyu Island to Beijing. More than ten yuan a kilo, but sashimi seasoning and processing fees (including barbecue) have to be charged separately.

North Line: There are two choices. First, there are simple farm meals at the foot of the mountain. You can have a good meal with the villagers before climbing the mountain. You can go straight down to the dining table. There are many farm yards in the village. Everyone chooses voluntarily.

Another option is to bring your own dry food on the Great Wall for a snack. On the way back to Beijing, you can grab fish at home in Huairou, a famous red trout ditch.

Mountaineering equipment

Mountaineering shoes: It is necessary to wear mountaineering shoes where rocks are loosened or sand grains are found in arrow buckles.

Crutches: Individual sections are needed, but crutches are obviously cumbersome for the dangers of using both hands and feet.

Interphone: Although the arrow button Great Wall has only one line, there are many forks up and down. If you are afraid of going away, you can prepare the intercom. Interestingly, in some highlands of the Great Wall, mobile phone signals are very strong, but not down.

Because the Great Wall Road around the arrow buckle is extremely steep and difficult to walk, we must pay attention to safety when hiking, and we'd better go together.

Environmental tips

The Great Wall is an important national cultural relic. It is forbidden to climb by the relevant state departments of the Wild Great Wall. When climbing, we should pay attention not to destroy one plant, another rubbish should be taken down the hill by ourselves. That's what university mountain climbing teams do. As the arrow button Great Wall bulletin board requires: nothing but photographs is taken away, and nothing is left except footprints.
