Gubei Water Town And Simatai Great Wall
Gubei Water Town, established in the 14th century, is a Jiangnan-style water town resort adjacent to the Simatai Great Wall. It features Great Wall culture, hot spring wellness, and folk customs experiences. Gubeikou Town has historically served as the vital gateway from northern regions into the Central Plains, earning it the titles “Gateway to Yanjing” and “Key to the Capital.” Its unique military heritage attracted countless scholars and literati, with emperors Kangxi and Qianlong repeatedly praising it: to extol its formidable terrain and strategic significance.
Simatai Great Wall is renowned for its precipitous cliffs and is classified as a “primitive Great Wall.” Famous for its five defining characteristics—steepness, density, uniformity, ingenuity, and completeness—it was named by The Times as “the top of 25 must-see sights worldwide.” After tour, we may enjoy interesting tea ceremony and have several cups of tea for relaxing,
