Suburban Beijing · Changyucheng
Changyucheng is situated at the junction of Beijing’s Changping District and Hebei’s Huailai County, with mountains on its east, west, and south sides. It lies south of Diaowogou, deriving its name from its location in the Changyu Gorge. The fortified pass was constructed during the Zhengde period of the Ming Dynasty, hence the name “Changyucheng.” Stretching 8 kilometers in length, it is the highest‑elevation section of the Great Wall within Beijing. In addition to its record‑breaking altitude, this stretch boasts the only circular watchtower—locally known as the “Round Tower”—in the Beijing area. During the Ming era, Changyucheng, Zhenbiancheng, and Baiyangcheng were collectively referred to as the Three Northern Frontier Fortresses of Beijing, serving as crucial military strongholds in ancient times.
