Embark on this intimate tour designed for a maximum of 10 participants. Traverse along the mountain ridge from Simatai West to Jinshanling. The journey leads you through dilapidating, ancient watch towers scattered along the path. It offers exceptional opportunities for photography! The walkthrough of 15 diverse watch-towers (Some are multi-storied, others just have flat roofs) and steep slopes provide ever-changing views and vast open panoramas. This stretch of the wall is wild, derelict, conserved, and untouched. On a bright day, it serves as an excellent photo spot.
