Go Through Chang’anling Tunnel

穿越长安岭隧道。
长安岭，古为枪杆岭，唐代设广边军，元代置枪杆岭驿，明洪武初年（1368年）称丰峪驿，于明永乐九年，筑城池并定名为长安驿，正统初年（1436年）都督杨洪增修石筑，是宣府镇中路长城的起点。长安岭堡地势险要，最高峰为1848米，城堡东西跨岭，建于两岭之间的山口上，中部南北通路，上岭之城墙几经盘旋回转。长安岭堡长五里十三步，高三丈，置城楼四座，置城们二座，南门称“迎恩”，北门称“拱寰”；因城堡筑于长安岭上，取名长安岭，此城呈不规则橄榄形，东西城尖伸到两边山顶上，好似凤凰展翅，故又名为凤凰城。此路长城为中路内长城, 与北面的中路外长城相连。
明英宗正统十四年（1449年），瓦刺入侵，英宗率50万大军亲征，兵败在土木堡被掳，瓦刺也先挟持英宗经长安岭堡北去（亦说瓦刺也先挟持英宗经闫家坪北去，未经长安岭堡。）
现在长安岭堡城墙只北部和南部各留有一小段夯土墙，城砖全拆，城门踪迹皆无。东侧山顶长城烽火台已是半坍塌状态，从现状看，此墩台原来是十分高大和宏伟的，实际测量东西方向16米。南北方向14 米，高度约7米。墩台往西南方向行还保存一段捎好的内夯土芯外干插毛石的近80米的长城。
长安岭隧道，位于河北省怀来县，长2045米，单洞双向双车道。
长安岭城堡南山口公路西边的高坡上有古松树一棵（又名：凤凰冠），树直径1米，树高15米，树冠30米，树龄600年。还有一棵古松生长在村东面的长城边墙边上，离烽火台最高处60米左右，树直径0.8米，树高13米，树冠21米，树龄600年。

当初第一次看到ENO的画时便觉得是适合长安的，并且能保持小说清淡的味道。
所以这张同人还是让我很开心的说～美型度还可以，黑发呢～也八错～～

An ancient Chinese city built to withstand any attack. With large walls, towering buildings and ancient Chinese architecture, this is the city of Xi’an. It was the capital of many Chinese dynasties. Music: I do not own the music, which was composed by Taro Iwashiro. The music is from the movie “Red Cliff.” It’s a great movie so go watch it.
