Badaling Great Wall is the most famous and the best-preserved section of the Chinese Ming Dynasty Great Wall. The mountain slope is very steep and the roads are tortuous, which makes it an important military stronghold in ancient times. The wall is like a strong dragon winding its way along the mountain ranges.
At Badaling, roads extend in all directions and people can go anywhere, so that’s why it is called “Bada” (in Chinese it means “convenient transportation”). You will spend 2 hours hiking on the Great Wall. If hiking is too much for you, cable car is available and optional (cost on your own). And our guide will help you buy the ticket.
After the Badaling Great Wall, you will be escorted back to the hotel. The whole travel schedule lasts around 4-5 hours.
