I met a red-clothed warrior in Jiayuguan, which was very fitting.

📍Address: Jiayuguan City, Gansu Province 🚗Transportation: We drove there 👍️Must-visit attractions: Jiayuguan is a World Cultural Heritage site, a national 5A tourist attraction, a national key cultural relic protection unit, and a national patriotism education demonstration base. The main attractions are Jiayuguan Pass, the Overhanging Great Wall, the First Beacon Tower of the Great Wall, the Wei and Jin Tombs, the Heishan Stone Carvings, Mulan City, the July 1 Glacier, and the Gliding Base. Jiayuguan was built in the fifth year of the Hongwu era of the Ming Dynasty (1372), nine years earlier than Shanhaiguan. It is the largest pass on the existing Great Wall and the largest pass in China. 🎟️Ticket info: No reservation required, CNY 108 💗Other tips: If you're coming from Dunhuang and going to Zhangye, you should go to the Overhanging Great Wall first so you don't have to backtrack
