The Simatai Great Wall, it has always been popular among all the sections of Great Wall for its steepness and queerness. Our guide will escort you walk through the open area from Tower 1 to Tower 10 along the east section. Keep in mind that walking along the wall requires quite some physical effort, especially in some very steep parts!
The path lead to the first two towers is long but gentle, and is comparatively easy to reach. But after that, the wall gradually rises and the stairs become steep and rugged. Sometimes you need to climb with your hands. The strong wind makes your way up even more difficult. As you climb up, the path gets steeper. But when reached the tenth tower, you will find all the sweat, fear and thrill are worth it. Looking back, you will see the wall stretching along the mountain ranges and extends into distance, just like a huge dragon. The rugged stairs and broken towers stand firmly against strong wind, telling stories of the eventful past of this country. The wall after the tenth watchtower is not open to visitors as it is too dangerous and some renovation work is going on.
