by shamenc Ok.. after going to Mutianyu, we had some time left so we wanted to see what a "tourist" Great Wall is like. hahahahaha and serious enough, it's very "touristy".. every other step we took, there were ppl selling post cards.. and also stands for you to take photos.. hahaha If you have slightly weaker knees, you may wish to stick to this part of the Great Wall. The floor is flatter compared to MuTianYu.. the "tiles" are smooth and you will have little risk of falling coz they are all very beautifully preserved. All I can say is that if you are like unfit like us, then i would not advise doing 2 Great Wall trips in ONE DAY!!! Coz our feet almost gave way... and the only reason why we were even crawling was towards our DINNER!!!!! DA DONG ROAST DUCK!!!!! Address: Ba Da Ling

 The Great Wall of China in Winter by morgagni One of the most famous segments of the Great Wall; also one of the most reconstructed or restored. Leave a Comment

 Say cheese! by livethedream The heat plus gazillions of tourists equals Badaling Great Wall hell. But still, my first time on China's most renowned monument was an awesome experience. Me and colleagues went up by foot on the less steep right section. Climbed elbow to elbow with children, plastic bag-toting oldies and PLA men. Then took the luge (or whatever its called) going down. It was all a very touristic affair. As Badaling is the most popular of all Great Wall sites, I now advise my Beijing-bound friends to stay away from Badaling and go to Mutianyu or Simatai instead.

by lobsterman The view was beautiful, especially because everything was lightly snow-covered. We organized the tour through the business desk at our hotel, which is available at most hotels in Beijing. the price was great, and it included lunch, a trip to traditional doctors and the Ming Tombs. The people on the Wall itself were very pushy, trying to sell postcards and T-shirts, but they still were unable to take away from the feeling of being there. It's a must see, a tough climb, and cold in the winter, but much less tourists. Leave a Comment

by loliver This is one of the more tourist oriented sections of the wall, but it still is not very crowded. One can walk all along the wall.

 Great Wall of China by walterwu Took a return trip on the cable-car to the top of the Great Wall. Cost 300RMB for 2 adults and 3 kids. Admission to the Great Wall is charged separately - 40RMB for Adult and 22.5RMB for kid. The section of the wall is crowded even in Winter and needs to venture into steeper section to get an un-interrupted picture. Leave a Comment

Definately worth seeing, just hope that the weather is good. If it is foggy you cannot really see anything. And if it is really windy or cold, it is really freezing up at the Great Wall. There is steep and a little bit less steep path, but both demand quite a lot climbing so be prepared with good walking / climbing shoes. No heels!!! Leave a Comment
