Photographs of the Great Wall of China at Huangyaguan, in Ji County, Tianjin Municipality.

This part of the Wall has intact, authentic sections dating back to the Sui Dynasty (589-618). They can be distinguished by the rough, brown stone being used for the tower in images 11 to 13. The scale of these monuments is much smaller than the Ming-dynasty Wall north of Beijing at Badaling.

Olympus E-330, wide angle zoom 11-22mm and 50/F2 used as a moderate tele lens.
