About Hushan Great Wall

Hushan Great Wall is a restored stretch of Ming-era wall, about 1.2 km long, that climbs Hushan hill (146 m) beside the Yalu where the Ai River joins it. Surveys in the late 1980s and early 1990s identified the ruins here as the eastern end of the Ming wall in Liaoning, and the wall has been restored in stages since 1992, with a rebuilt entrance gate and a series of towers. From the top there are views over the river to the North Korean bank.
