Are you planning a Great Wall tour?
The Great Wall is one of the most important historical and cultural heritages of the world. The “original” Wall was begun over 2,000yeas ago, now main of the wall that we visit was constructed since Ming Dynasty. Around Beijing, there’re famous Great Wall sections like Badaling Section, Mutianyu Section, Simatai and Jinshanling Sections.
At an elevation of 1000m, the Great Wall’s most high-profile and most-photographed vista is 70km northwest of beijing at Badaling. Most visitors to the Great Wall take in Badaling, including US President Richard Nixon, on his 1972 visit to China.
Mutianyu Great Wall Section is 90km from Beijing, dates from Ming dynasty remain built upon an earlier Northern Qi-dynasty conception. Despite some motivated hawking and tourist paraphernalia, Mutianyu Section is notable for its numerous Ming dynasty guard towers and stirring views. It’s also a rare well-protected section at present.
Simatai Great Wall Section is 110km from Beijing. This rugged section of wall can be heart-thumpingly steep and the scenery is dramatic. A few slopes with 70-degree inclines will bring your an excellent experience during your climbing.
Jinshanling Great Wall Section has 24 watchtowers and is relatively less developed, despite restoration work, and it’s one of the popular choices for the tekking lovers.
