Overhanging Great Wall, or Xuanbi Changcheng in Chinese, is located about 6.5 kilometers northwest of the famed Jiayuguan Fort. It was built as an extension of Jiayuguan Fortress and its original length used to be 1.5 kilometers, but a large part of the wall has been damaged with only 750 meters surviving up to date.

China Photographers Association member Li Zongxian completed the series, The Great Wall in the Night, over a period of more than two years. The series has been exhibited in the 9th session of the Chinese Photographic Art Festival Exhibition. In his photographs, the Great Wall exudes its ancient power, standing through the vicissitudes of time.
