The photos look very "Photoshopped" to me and I think they would be more interesting in their natural form. It certainly looks like an interesting structure that would be worth visiting while trekking the nearby Great Wall.

The Great Wall is visible in the background and this span isn't on our map...

But only because it is in LR image area and no one of us had been there to take the geo-coordinates yet. Without any doubt there is GW. Even of more than only one dynasty.
