Tour itinerary:
Our guide will pick you up from your hotel around 08:00 (or at a time that suits you), and you'll set off on a 1.5-hour drive to the Badaling section of the Great Wall.
Often compared to the Great Pyramids of Egypt and the Taj Mahal of India, the Great Wall of China is one of the world’s most iconic man-made wonders. Stretching over 12,700 kilometers, it winds across five provinces and two autonomous regions in northern China, earning the name "Ten Thousand Li Wall." Following the ridgelines of mountain ranges, it has served for centuries as a defensive structure and cultural symbol.
Recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987, the Great Wall is more than just an architectural feat - it is a cultural treasure that represents centuries of history and civilization.
At Badaling, the most visited and well-restored section, you'll have approximately three hours to explore the wall at your own pace. You can walk along its stone steps, take in panoramic views, and imagine the immense effort that went into its construction.
After the visit, enjoy a traditional Chinese lunch at a local restaurant. In the afternoon, stop by a jade carving factory to learn about this unique Chinese art form - a combination of exquisite craftsmanship and ancient tradition - with time to browse or shop if you wish.
Return to your hotel in the late afternoon.
