Overview
Mutianyu Great Wall is the most exquisite section of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty and enjoys the reputation of "Mutianyu stands out among all the sections of the Great Wall".

At Mutianyu Great Wall, your guide will tell you about the construction history of the Great Wall, interpret its unique defense system, and take you to experience the military wisdom of the ancients.
At the Ming Tombs, your guide will introduce to you the imperial mausoleum system, funeral culture of the Ming Dynasty, and will also explain the symbolic meanings of the sacred stone statues and the architectural features of the tombs, making the dull history come alive.

The Mutianyu Great Wall is located in Mutianyu Village, Bohai Town, Huairou District, Beijing, China. It is about 70 kilometers away from downtown Beijing and takes about 1.5 hours.
The Mutianyu Great Wall is one of the best-preserved sections of the Ming Dynasty's ten-thousand-li Great Wall, stretching 5,400 meters. It has well preserved the original architectural style and historical traces, allowing tourists to truly experience the grandeur and magnificence of the ancient Great Wall. Meanwhile, there are relatively fewer tourists, unlike some popular scenic spots which are crowded. This allows tourists to enjoy the scenery of the Great Wall more comfortably and have a great time during their visit.
Upon arriving at Mutianyu, our package provides two convenient ways to ascend the Great Wall: one is to take the cable car up and down, and the other is to take a chairlift up and slide down, which adds fun to your visit. You can choose according to your own preferences and needs.
