Itinerary
Mutianyu Great Wall
1 hours 30 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedThe Great Wall at Mutianyu is located around 75 kilometres outside Beijing in Huairou County. This section of the wall is slightly less crowded than its popular brother at Badaling and has a more rugged feeling compared to other parts. We’re scheduled to leave Beijing at around 8.30 am for a drive through the countryside as we head out to the starting point of ascending the Great Wall of China ourselves. We start our approach by taking a cable car from nearby the parking lot, up to the main access point as your guide will explain in detail all there is to know.Mutianyu Great Wall
1 hours 30 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedMutianyu Great Wall enjoys a long history and is an integral part of the rich culture of China. It connects Juyongguan Pass in the west and Gubeikou Great Wall in the east. This section of the wall began during the Northern Qi Dynasty then built and rebuilt up until the 17th century. It was constructed wide enough to allow a brace of five horses to gallop between the battlements and was thus used to convey soldiers, arms, and food with great speed to various parts of the northern frontier. Due to its location among fertile plains, over 90% of the surrounding areas on both sides of the wall are covered with greens, more than any other part of the wall which gives it another added value compared to other parts, for example, Badaling and Jinshanling.Olympic Park
1 hours 30 minsAdmission Ticket IncludedAfter having explored the Great Wall, and before we head back to Beijing, enjoy lunch at a local restaurant. A selection of Chinese dishes, suitable for the western palette, will be freshly prepared. En route to your hotel, we will make a quick stop at the 2008 Olympic Grounds the unique Bird’s Nest and Water Cube remain some of the most striking Olympic designs. We expect to be back to the city at around 3.30 am depending on traffic.
