The Great Wall section in Baiyang Valley, which is known for its magnificent mountains and sheer passes with a length of about 4452 meters, starts at the Da Ao Tower at the conjunction with Dazhuang in the east, and ends at the Laojun Terrace in Sidaogou in the west. The Baiyang Valley section of the Great Wall still remains the original look of Ming Dynasty with zero human touch. There are totally twenty one gate towers on the wall, including six intact ones. They are Da Ao Tower, Kengzi Tower, Head Tower, Tip Tower, Square Tower, and Deity Tower from east to west. The Deity Tower stands out preeminently among all the other towers for its unique architectural style. There are many Great Wall sections in China, but Baiyang Valley section still amazes tourists. This marble section of Great Wall is 1.5KM long and was built by Qi Jiguang. It is still kept in good shape. The foundation is completely built with red marble stones with every stone weighing around 500KG. The Great Wall extends along the ridge marvelously. Therefore it is crowned as a wonder of the Great Wall built in Ming Dynasty.
The Deity Tower was built in 1596 in Ming Dynasty. It is not only a particular watch tower, but a well-designed ancient architecture. Instead of being built on the city wall, it is hung on the outer side of the wall, making it the only one of its kind along the Great Wall. The Deity Tower is more than 33 meters tall, designed in masonry structure with a flush gable roof. Since it’s built on scarcements, the direction of the whole building aligns with the Great Wall. An arch-shaped door is gouged facing the city wall, which is 2.1 meters long, 1.7 meters wide. The door has frames around it and bolts on both sides. A stone plaque, which is 1.04 meters long and 0.35 meters high, is embedded atop the door, with the characters “Shen Wei Lou” (Chinese characters of Deity Tower) inscribed on it. At the upper left corner it writes “by Zhang Shizhong, General of Guerrillas”, and at the lower right corner it writes “at the propitious moment in the summer of 1596, Wanli Reign”.
Situated on the 320-meter-high Tuolong Ridge of Baiyang Valley, the Guanyin Tower was built during the time of the North March by the Emperor Yan in Early Ming Dynasty. Legend has it that the guarding soldiers decided to build a Guanyin Pavilion on the mountain opposite to the Baiyang River in order to seek safety. All the bricks and woods were transported to the site and ready for work. In the next morning, workers found all the materials had been transported to Tuolong Ridge. Therefore, solders knelt down and worshiped to the deities, and the Guanyin Pavilion was built here.
