  • Well worth the extra travel required from Beijing to reach this more remote section of the Great Wall. The admission fee is fairly priced given the remoteness and how well they maintained the structure. Makes for some truly awe-inspiring hiking and exploration, You can easily spend half a day here and not see another person at all - you will feel like you were transported back in time.
  • WOW.. what incredible views.. best place to see Great wall . around 80 kms away from Beijing. booked a private van with some friends and reached the ticket office in 2 hrs.. there were very few tourists and the sight is insanely beautiful.. we met a really cute dog who hiked with us all the way... Loved it
  • Great wall is truly great. We come at East gate and did road to middle station. At the beginning there were few people and we were able to go to further parts where was nobody. Make photos and dron footage. After in direction to the main - middle part were much more crowded. It is important bro mention that further part are not renovated and access can be difficult. We choose this part of the wall because it should be least crowded.
  • An amazing day.... visiting the Great Wall at this location was worth all the walking. It is a magnificient area, well organized, but not “too “ organized. Very few visitors , even on a Saturday, with wonderful pathways, imposing structures, and plenty of history connected to this part of the wall.
  • Amazing experience, not many people at all, really worth the trip, be prepared for some hicking, some times quite steep and steep stairs too, you also get to see an original untouched section of the Great wall. Spectacular views and your photos will have only you and the wall and the amazing views. About 2,5 hours from Beijing, once you're there it'll take about 3,5 hicking from Jinshanling to the General Tower and exiting through the east gate. I would recommend taking the tour, makes it so much easier to get there and back.
