Itinerary
This is a typical itinerary for this product
Stop At: Jinshanling Great Wall, Chengde Shi, Luanping County 068250 China
See the Great Wall at Jinshanling, one of the best-preserved parts of the Great Wall with many original features. The Wall here got its name because it was built on the Greater and Lesser Jinshan (Gold Mountain, literally) Ranges. The Jinshanling Great Wall has not been repaired since 1570. It is a remote and relatively isolated section of the Great Wall. As there are relatively few tourists at Jinshanling Great Wall, it is an excellent place to explore on foot and see the real Great Wall. Incorporating various characteristics of other sections of the Great Wall, Jinshanling also displays some unique features of its own with the following five words: perilous, dense, diverse, artful, and peculiar.
Duration: 4 hours
Stop At: The Great Wall of Gubeikou, Gubeikou Town, Beijing 101508 China
You will be transferred to Gubeikou to hike another 1.5 hours to meet the beautiful sunset on the Wall. From ancient times, Gubeikou has served as a route of strategic importance, linking the southern and northern areas of the Yanshan Range. As early as 2,500 years ago, a fortification was built here and continuously reinforced throughout the following dynasties. It is an excellent location to watch the sunset as Gubeikou is flatter and easy to access by walking.
