Default What wall section is this?

Hi

I was just looking through Google Earth and looking at the Simatai area and I noticed another wall part to the west of the Simatai lake (on the Jinshanling side. What is this? Is it the Northern Qi wall? Is it easily accessed? I may take a look once I have walked from Jinshanling next week

You're right. Northern Qi Great Wall. Easily accessed.

Great, thanks for the info. What is the best way to get to this wall? I plan to do the Jinshanling to Simatai Hike and would tove to take a quick detour to see and photograph whats left of this wall and then resume my walk along Simatai. Are there paths leading from near the end of the Jinshanling wall leading up to this part?

There are narrow paths from around that location, but the main road is from Simatai, and you can see both the trails and the road on Google Earth.

Thanks!!! So I have already been on a lot of that Wall and didn't realize that it wasn't Ming. How embarrasing!

What do you think, is there a Qi Great Wall at Simatai / Jinshanling?
