The Great Wall, which spans Yongchang County, was built in the Han Dynasty and restored in the Ming Dynasty. It is connected to the Great Wall south of Dakouzi in Minqin County in the east and to the Xiumiao Great Wall at the junction of Shandan County in the west, with a total length of about 120 km. The existing part can be roughly divided into three sections: the boundary between Qingshan Bao and Minqin County is the eastern section, which is more than 40 kilometers long. Due to the long-term weathering and erosion, most of the city walls are 2 meters high and have sand ridges. However, the peaks and piers are basically intact, all about 20 meters square, and a wall about 30 meters long has been built outside. The middle section is more than 20 kilometers long from Jinchuan West to Crescent Lake. Because it is located in the valley between the two mountains, the sand erosion is light and well preserved. Especially the section from Jinchuan West to Maobula, about 7 kilometers, with towering towers and twin cities inside and outside, is still magnificent and is an excellent tourist area. The western section is from Zhuangzi, a sheep in new castle village, to Xiuhua Temple, which is about 20 kilometers long. Because it is located at the northern foot of Dahuangshan Mountain, the natural weathering is serious and the city wall is incomplete. The Hamming Ancient Great Wall in Yongchang County was declared as a provincial-level cultural relics protection unit by the Gansu provincial government in 198 1.
