Huangyaguan began in the Northern Qi era (around 557 A.D.) and was substantially rebuilt during the Ming; the Qing imperial tombs nearby were constructed between 1730 and 1915 and hold several emperors and members of the court.
Huangyaguan sees fewer large tour groups than Beijing sections, but visitors should remain on repaired paths, carry out waste, and avoid disturbing archaeological features to protect both landscape and heritage.
