Here is the upper portion of the north gate for the Great Wall entrance fortification. This fortress has two gates with an enclosed garrison space between them. The invader who broke through this northern gate would find himself in this enclosure, blocked by the southern gate and subject to attack from all sides. The gate is close, to the south from the tourist bus stop and restaurant and bazar.
