甘肃·嘉峪关丨游在中国每日一景
嘉峪关坐落于甘肃河西走廊,是明代万里长城的西端起点,素有“天下第一雄关”之称。关城始建于明洪武五年(1372年),南望祁连雪山,北依黑山,两翼城墙横穿戈壁,扼守峡谷咽喉。
The Jiayuguan Pass lies in the Hexi Corridor of Gansu province, marking the western end of the Great Wall built during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). It is celebrated as the \x22First and Greatest Pass Under Heaven\x22. Construction of the pass began in 1372. To the south rise the snow-capped Qilian Mountains, while Heishan Mountain lies to the north. The Great Wall extends into the surrounding desert, guarding a strategic passage through the corridor.

内城以黄土夯筑,外有瓮城、罗城与城壕多重相护,布局严整。1987年,嘉峪关作为长城的一部分被列入世界遗产名录。如今登楼远眺,城楼巍然独立于戈壁之上,祁连雪峰在天际绵延。
Built of rammed earth, the inner city is protected by a series of defensive structures, including barbicans, an outer enclosure and a moat. In 1987, the Great Wall, including Jiayuguan Pass, was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage list. Today, visitors can climb the tower to admire the fortress rising majestically above the Gobi Desert, with the snow-capped peaks of the Qilian Mountains stretching along the horizon.
