The Old Dragon Head (Laolongtou) Scenic SpotⅡ

Old Dragon Head is not just comprised of the military fortification of the Great Wall, but also an amazing destination in Shanhai Guan Scenic Park. Chenghai Building is the highest point on the Old Dragon Head, a spectacular viewing platform. When ancient emperors of China on occasion visited this fort they would stand on the Chenghai Lou and pen poems watching the sea, which today remains engraved on a plaque outside the fortress. The parts of the fortress were constructed entirely of wood and upon excavating the ruins of the wooden structures in recent years, this plaque was discovered as well as several artifacts and compositions from other leaders of the country.
