early morning at Jiayuguan Fort, and I am the only visitor together with two PLA soldiers touring the Fort. Behind the walls are the Gobi Desert and the lands of the Western barbars as the fort was the end of the Great Wall and the Chinese empire during the Ming dynasty.added: the name of the Jiayuguan Pass means "The First and Greatest Pass under the Heaven". This is different from "The First Pass under the Heaven", which is located at the east end of the Great Wall near Qinhuangdao City in Hebei Province. thank you for your comments, yes, it is simple to make simple photos in that part of the world, as it was just it, the walls and the desert, for as far as an eye could see...
