Mutianyu Great Wall

حول

حقائق سريعة: Climbing those stone steps, you can immediately feel the cold hard surface of the stones and the low hum of the mountain wind by your ears. The varying height of the steps makes you have to measure your pace with your footsteps. More than 20 beacon towers line the winding defense line. Looking far into the valley, clouds and mist roll like waves. The depth of field and layering effect make the scene especially striking for photography.

النقاط البارزة: Following the stone steps to reach Beacon Tower 23, you can smell the scent of pine needles mixed with fallen leaves. Slightly shifting your stance will bring the entire valley and the curve of the wall into view. Many people choose to take the cable car or monorail down the mountain. During the glide, looking down at low altitude reveals the continuous undulating brick wall and dark forest belt. The sound of the wind cutting past your ears is even more unforgettable than the photos.

نصائح من الداخل

• Wear sturdy shoes, expect uneven stone steps and steep inclines.
• Arrive before 9:00 or after 16:00 on weekdays to avoid peak tour groups and get softer light for photos.
• Take the cable car up and the toboggan down to save time and knees, or skip the rides and walk the ramparts to save money.
• Climb a restored watchtower for the best panoramic photos and bring a light jacket for wind at the top.
