Special Note:
1. Badaling Great Wall
The Badaling Great Wall is the well preserved Ming Dynasty Great Wall with original appearance. Now it is divided into two sections - east and west starting at the Badaling Pass and Gate. Most people prefer to climb the east section where the highest watch tower is located.
Some tourists don't choose the Badaling Great Wall. They think Badaling Great Wall is too touristy! "Touristy" is now a bad word for any tour destination. But why is it too touristy? It is "too touristy" because Badaling Great Wall is one of the most gorgeous of all the sections of the Great Wall around Beijing.
Given your limited travel time on Badaling Great Wall, you may take a cable car up the Wall and walk down. Cable car is available and optional ( pay on your own).
2. Juyongguan Pass Great Wall
The Juyongguan Pass Great Wall is sectioned into two semicircles - east and west. Most people prefer hiking on its west semicircle for its steepness and beautiful view. Each semicircle takes about 2-hour hike
