Old Dragon’s Head, Shanhaiguan, Hebei 河北山海关老龙头
Old Dragon’s Head (Laolongtou) lies on the Bohai Sea about five kilometres south of the Shanhaiguan pass in Qinhuangdao, Hebei, where the eastern end of the Ming Great Wall runs out into the sea like a dragon dipping its head into the water. The stone wall reaching into the sea, the Chenghai Tower and the Ninghai fort follow one another, and from the stone terrace before the tower the waves break right below your feet.
