A place with fewer crowds but great emotional impact: A review of Simatai Great Wall in Beijing

Simatai Great Wall is one of the lesser-known sections of the Great Wall in Beijing, which makes it even more special. Compared to the more famous tourist spots, it is much quieter, allowing you to fully immerse yourself in the scenery and emotions. The uphill path is quite steep, so wearing sneakers is a must. However, with each step you take, the breathtaking views that unfold before your eyes make it all worthwhile. Once you reach the top, you are greeted with a panoramic view of the vast mountain ranges and the winding line of the Great Wall. At that moment, you truly feel the overwhelming realization of being at the Great Wall. The paths are well-maintained, and there are clear signs, making it easy to navigate without much difficulty. There are also plenty of great spots for photography, so you can capture some unforgettable shots. For those who prefer a quiet place to experience history and nature rather than bustling tourist destinations, I highly recommend Simatai Great Wall. It’s a place of serene and profound beauty.
