The Huangya Pass Section of the Great Wall extends eastbound to the Malan Pass in Zunhua County, Hebei Province, and westbound to Jiangjun Pass in Pinggu, Beijing, with a total length of 42 km. It is composed of 66 towers including 52 watchtowers and 14 beacons and is of crucial military significance to the east of Beijing.

The Huangya Pass Section of the Great Wall is centered on its main gate, from which it extends to the two cliffs of the Ju River, eastbound to Banlagang Mountain, with cliffs as a natural barrier, and westbound to the Wangmaoding Mountain, supported by a precipice.
