เกี่ยวกับJiayuguan
The Jiayuguan Fort, built in 1372, is the most complete and best-preserved ancient military fortress in China — its three concentric walls, watchtowers, and massive gate complexes have stood for over 650 years. The surrounding Gobi Desert landscape is as much of the draw as the fort itself: wild, unrestored sections of Great Wall at Overhanging Wall are awe-inspiring. Jiayuguan also makes a natural stopover on the way to the legendary Zhangye Danxia Rainbow Mountains (3 hrs east), one of China's most vivid geological spectacles.
