Itinerary
Mutianyu Great Wall
The Mutianyu Great Wall is known for its well-preserved watchtowers, mountain scenery, and long stretches of restored wall running across the ridges. It offers a great balance between impressive views, history, and a comfortable way to explore the Great Wall.
After arriving at the scenic area, take the shuttle bus to the entrance, followed by the cable car up the mountain. From there, walk along the Great Wall, pass through historic watchtowers, and enjoy panoramic views across the surrounding mountains.
At the end of the visit, instead of taking the cable car back down, you’ll take the toboggan slide down the mountain — one of the most fun and memorable ways to finish a Great Wall visit.
