To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The boldness and indefatigable activity of the Chinese laborers attracted the attention of the travelers ; the sum- mits of the highest mountains were covered with cultivated fields, and the naked and inaccessible rocks seemed to have been rendered fertile. There were villages and temples on the declivities of the mountains, and several cabins were built against the rocks hke birds' nests.
They first saw K3ialgan when they arrived at the Great Wall, which is built of bricks between two steep ro...cks, and is now half-ruined.
At Khalgan, as at the Maimatchin of Kiakhta and the Ourga, it was the custom to fire a cannon at six in the morning and nine in the even- ing ; at the former report every inhabitant is allowed to leave his home, and even, if necessary, to go and see the city authorities, but at the latter this right ceases, except in extraordinary cases. A river divides the city into two parts, the upper and lower town ; the former is on the Mongolian frontier, and has its gates in the great wall, which extends across the mountains.
