Dandong, Liaoning | Hushan Great Wall: Climb the Great Wall in Winter

|Hushan Great Wall: Climb the Great Wall in Winter. ✨✨✨ Dandong | Visit Hushan Great Wall and enjoy the views of two countries' cities. 🪨 Dandong's Hushan Great Wall is the eastern starting point of the Great Wall. It is famous for its "steepness" and the almost 90-degree vertical stairs are terrifying to look at. It faces the ancient city of Uiju in North Korea across the river, and the view from the top of the mountain is amazing! 🔸The section of the Great Wall from No. 9 to No. 4 is relatively flat, but from No. 4 to No. 3, there is an extremely steep uphill staircase. If you don't dare to challenge it, you can return the way you came; if you bravely cross this staircase, you will start to go downhill, but you will face almost all 90° stairs, which are more thrilling and exciting than going uphill‼️ 🌟But No. 3 enemy tower is the highest point of the entire Great Wall, with excellent scenery and a wide view, where you can enjoy the surrounding scenery. In any case, you should climb to No. 3 enemy tower before making a choice, because after No. 3 enemy tower, No. 1 and No. 2 enemy towers no longer exist. 📍Address: Hushan Village, Kuandian Manchu Autonomous County, Dandong City 🕜Hours: 08:00–16:30 | 🎫Ticket: CNY 55 🚕Transportation: You can take a direct bus to the scenic area at the square in front of Dandong Railway Station, which costs CNY 5 and goes directly to the entrance of Hushan Great Wall Scenic Area. 🚏Departure times: 7:30, 8:35, 9:30. If you take the bus at these times, you can catch the bus back to the city at 12:00. Otherwise, you will have to wait for the return bus at 14:30! ——-Tips——- ✔️Bring water, as there is no place to buy water on the mountain except at the entrance. ✔️There is a sightseeing bus in the scenic area for CNY 10 per person, but you don't have to take it because the distance to the foot of the mountain is not far. ✔️If you need to take a bus back to the city, be sure to pay attention to the time. ✔️If you come down too early and have to wait too long for the bus, you can take other buses back to the city, such as from Kuandian to Dandong. You can ask the tour guide at the scenic area exit for the time.
