Highlights

The round-trip will take 4 hours, and you should wear hiking boots or sturdy shoes, as some of the paths are tough, you'd better bring one more T-shirt to change after the hiking. If you are afraid of heights or are above 65 years old age, the Huanghuacheng, Jingshanling or Mutianyu Great Wall is recommended as an alternative tour. The tour is only arranged during good weather. Jiankou is closed sometimes for fire prevention. We have right to change the agenda or different section of The great Wall when authorities close it or during very bad Weather.

About Beijing

Beijing, China's capital for centuries, holds imperial palaces, sacred temples and stretches of the Great Wall within reach of its modern boulevards.

At the city's heart, the Forbidden City spreads behind vermilion walls, a labyrinth of halls and courtyards that housed the emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties. Tiananmen Square lies to its south, and the hill of Jingshan Park to its north gives the finest view over its golden roofs. The Temple of Heaven, set in a park where locals practise tai chi and dance, is a masterpiece of imperial design.

Top-ranked sights in Beijing: Mutianyu Great Wall, Forbidden City (Palace Museum), Tiananmen Square (Tiananmen Guangchang).
