Today, I'm going to share a travel guide for the Badaling Great Wall in Beijing!

The Badaling Great Wall is very famous. It was built in 1897 and is a World Cultural Heritage Site, a national 5A-level tourist attraction, a national key cultural relic protection unit, and a national model scenic tourist area. First, let's talk about booking tickets. It's best to book 3 to 5 days in advance. For the route, you can take the cable car from the north gate to the mountain. Then walk up the Great Wall, which is about 2.6 km in total. After the tour, exit the city from the north gate and take the sightseeing bus to the parking lot. Now, let's talk about some tips. Don't buy so-called round-trip tickets, which will take you to a place that has nothing to do with the Great Wall, and then you'll have to take a bus to the Great Wall. Be sure to check carefully whether the route of the ticket you bought passes through the Great Wall. If you want to climb more floors, you can ask the staff for a stair card and take the stairs up. If you have enough energy or time, you can climb up by yourself, but don't challenge the Hero Slope, which is exhausting and has no good scenery. If you want to see the sunset, you can choose after 5 pm, when the sky is still bright and the photos are great. Remember to wear shoes with good slip resistance, such as sneakers or hiking shoes, because most of the stairs are quite steep and you can easily slip if you're not careful. For safety, keep your valuables safe and pay attention to the people around you at all times to avoid losing or having your belongings stolen. The scenery of the Badaling Great Wall is spectacular. Standing on the Great Wall, you can see the rolling mountains, and the Great Wall is like a giant dragon winding through the mountains. In autumn, the leaves on the mountains turn colorful, contrasting with the ancient Great Wall, as beautiful as a painting. Speaking of local food, you must try the Yanqing fire spoon, which is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with meat or vegetables in between, and tastes great. There is also the Liugou tofu feast, with various tofu dishes that are nutritious and delicious. There are also several attractions worth visiting when you visit the Badaling Great Wall. For example, the Great Wall Museum, where you can learn about the history and culture of the Great Wall. There is also the Zhan Tianyou Memorial Hall, where you can feel the achievements of this great engineer. In addition to the above-mentioned precautions, there are also some other things to keep in mind when visiting here, such as the changeable weather, so remember to bring appropriate clothing. Do not scribble on the Great Wall and take care of the cultural relics. In addition, the food in the scenic area may be a bit expensive, so you can bring your own water and snacks.
