The Great Wall at Mutianyu: This section of the Great Wall is about 2½ hours' drive from downtown Beijing.
In order to save your time and your energy, we will arrange a cable car to take you to a good section (avoiding a very steep climb), where you can walk along the wall, through the watchtowers, and enjoy superb views of the wall snaking along the mountain ridges to the distance.
Your personal guide will walk with you on the Wall to give you historical information, and to help you take photos with the Wall. You will have some free time to walk around after that.
You can return by cable car, walk down, or walk along the wall for about an hour to descend by chairlift.
Enjoy your time at the Mutianyu Great Wall
