Revisiting the heroic story of Yanmen Pass in 'The Great Wall'

On March 28th, the latest episode of the world's first Great Wall cultural experience program "Amazing Great Wall" broadcasted by Beijing Television came to Yanmen Pass Scenic Area, a subsidiary of Intime Culture and Tourism Group, which is known as the "first pass in China". The program fully showcases the magnificent scenery and rich historical and cultural connotations of Yanmen Pass.

Currently, with the continuous improvement of the national epidemic prevention and control situation, Yanmen Pass Scenic Area has been opened and is welcoming tourists one after another. Detailed measures for epidemic prevention and control will ensure that tourists can enjoy their travels to the fullest and play with peace of mind.

Yanmen Pass, which was first built during the Warring States period, is an important pass on the Great Wall. It is known for its "danger" and is known as the "number one pass in China". It is said that "Yanmen is the leader among the nine passes in the world". Nowadays, it is a national 5A level tourist attraction and one of the key scenic spots operated and managed by Yintai Culture and Tourism Group.

Yanmen Pass, which has a history of three thousand years, has given birth to many famous historical allusions such as Hu Fu's riding and shooting, the Siege of Baideng, and Zhaojun's departure from the frontier. It can be said that the Xiongguan Pass is made of iron and is well-known throughout the world. Yanmen Pass is also the earliest built pass among all the Great Wall passes, with the most wars and the most dangerous geographical location.

In the latest broadcast of "The Great Wall", the famous historical story of "Yang Family Loyalty and Martyrdom" is showcased, performed by "Great Wall bricklayers" such as Cai Guoqing, Liu Ye, Ruan Jingtian, Yang Di, etc., reproducing the theme story of the Yang family selecting a son to lead Yanmen Pass.

In the early Northern Song Dynasty, Yanmen Pass was the main battlefield contested by the Song and Liao dynasties. It was here that the loyal Yang family generals of the Manchu clan fought bravely to serve their country and made immortal contributions. In opera reviews such as "The Fourth Prince's Mother", "Golden Beach", and "Mu Guiying Takes Command", the heroic stories of Yang family generals who serve the country and fight bravely at Yanmen Pass are fully told, which are heart wrenching.

In February 2020, to pay tribute to the medical workers who fought on the front line of the fight against the epidemic, Yintai Culture and Tourism Group announced that all scenic spots, including Yanmen Pass, would be open to medical staff nationwide for free from the date of opening until December 31, 2020.

In order to provide tourists with a peaceful playing environment, Yanmenguan Scenic Area has taken a series of epidemic prevention measures and strictly implemented nine commitments, including safe and orderly resumption of work, strict flow control, daily disinfection and ventilation, personnel temperature monitoring, wearing masks when entering the park, setting up hand washing facilities, contactless entry services, online disclosure of epidemic prevention information, and free ticket cancellation. Tourists can visit normally and enjoy themselves with peace of mind.

The mountains are majestic, majestic, and rich in historical accumulation. When the epidemic is completely over, this place will surely usher in vitality again.
