Photos of Yumen Pass

Yumen Pass was built in the Eastern Han Dynasty, also known as Xiaofangpancheng, which is the throat of the Silk Road leading to the Western Region. Because Hetian Meiyu entered the Central Plains from here since ancient times, it was called Yumenguan. With the erosion of thousands of years, Yumenguan has lost the appearance of the year. The current Yumenguan looks like a relic of a rammed earth pile. It is square and consists of four walls of earth. It opens on the northwest sides of the earth wall.
