2. Introduction to the Badaling Great Wall

The Badaling Great Wall is the earliest section of the Great Wall open to tourists. The Badaling Great Wall Scenic Area is mainly based on the Badaling Great Wall. It has built modern tourism service facilities with complete functions such as the Badaling Hotel, the Quanzhou Cinema and the Great Wall Museum of China. It is a national 5A-level scenic spot and has been rated as the top 40 tourist attractions in China and the "best in the world" in Beijing tourism. As a "World Cultural Heritage", the Badaling Great Wall Scenic Area is famous for its magnificent landscape, complete facilities and profound cultural and historical connotations.

3. Badaling Great Wall Transportation

The Center of Beijing City-Badaling Great Wall

Distance: ≈80 kilometers

1. Direct bus to the scenic area: The bus will meet at Exit C of Beitucheng Subway Station. Departure time: Two buses at 08:00 or 10:00. The regular air-conditioned tourist bus will directly go from the city to the Badaling Great Wall Scenic Area. It is more affordable than self-driving and more convenient than public transportation. It is mainly exempted from taking the scenic area shuttle bus. The VIP exclusive green channel goes directly to the ticket gate. There are professional tour guides on the bus to explain and assist in purchasing tickets without queuing, providing convenience for immersive tours in the scenic area.

2. Train Line S2: Take the subway to Huoying Station, exit the station and walk to Huangtudian Railway Station to Badaling Great Wall. Buy tickets on the same day. You cannot buy tickets in advance at 12306. You need to arrive early on the same day and queue up to buy tickets. You may not be able to buy tickets during peak season. This train is not a passenger train in our traditional sense. The departure time of S2 is generally not fixed and needs to be checked in advance. Moreover, it is a free seat for the entire train without seats. No seats are designated. It is a first-come, first-served basis. If there are many people, there will be no seats. It is similar to the subway. After checking your tickets, be sure to run forward and line up at the front of the list, the better.

3. Bus 877: Take the subway to Jishuitan Metro Exit B. There are signs. Follow the arrow and walk for more than 10 minutes to Deshengmen Bus Station. There are more people and the waiting time is longer. The real 877 can be swiped by the bus pass or paid in cash. You need to wait until the seats are full. Before going, you must confirm whether there is enough round-trip fare in your bus card. There are no recharge booths at the Great Wall. You can also scan the code with your mobile phone Alipay, or you can give you cash. If you pay cash, keep your change ready, and you may not have the change. If there is no traffic jam, it will take nearly two hours to reach Badaling. The bus stop is at the "Qianshan Parking Lot". Try to return as early as possible. The last bus will run out very early. If you can catch the last bus and there is a traffic jam on the road, you don't know when you will return to the city. One thing to note is that there will definitely be many soliciting customers near Deshengmen. Ignore them, they are all soliciting illegal cars.

4. Bus 919/880: It is divided into shuttle buses and express buses. It is not a direct bus. There is a stop in the middle, which is time-consuming. When you get off at Badaling Changcheng Tiandi Station [Houshan Parking Lot], you need to transfer to a "shuttle bus"(shuttle bus). There are many people in the queue. If it is full, the staff will shout: Is there anyone standing in the car that doesn't need a seat? You can squeeze into the shuttle bus like this. Squeeze up the shuttle bus and leave. The travel time of the shuttle bus is about five or six minutes, and the alighting point is at the ferry station south of the cableway entrance.

5. Self-driving: Beijing-Tibet Expressway (formerly Badaling Expressway) and Badaling Exit go straight and follow the signs (passing by highways: Beijing-Xinjiang Expressway, Beijing-Tibet Expressway). The Badaling parking lot cannot be driven directly to the entrance of the scenic spot and needs to transfer to a "shuttle bus"(shuttle bus).

6. Direct taxi: about 250 yuan one way. The price is still relatively expensive and it is not worth it to go alone. You also need to transfer to a "shuttle bus"(shuttle bus).

4. Visiting the Badaling Great Wall

The Badaling Great Wall is divided into the southern section and the northern section. The southern section opens to the seventh floor of the south and is 1176 meters long. The northern section opens to the twelfth floor of the north and is 2565 meters long and a total length of 3741 meters. There are 19 enemy towers in the northern section of the southern section, which can be used for sightseeing. The area is 190,000 square meters. The North Eighth Floor, also known as Haohanpo, is the highest peak in Badaling, with an altitude of 1050 meters.

There are four main ways to visit the Badaling Great Wall: walking, cableway/ground cable, sled and slide + cableway/ground cable mixed tour.

1. Fully walking

Badaling Great Wall Guancheng has two east and west gates. The east gate is titled "Juyong Outer Town" and the west gate is titled "North Gate Lock Key".

The Badaling Great Wall is currently open. The first floor on the left side is the south floor, and the first floor on the right side is the north floor. Go straight down. There are seven buildings going south and twelve floors going north. The buildings here are the beacon towers. It takes at least 3-4 hours to walk back and forth, which is difficult for ordinary people to support.

Walking to climb the Great Wall is the hardest way to visit. We visit the Great Wall not to climb the Great Wall. We all hope that we can climb the highest point of the Great Wall and appreciate the heroic feeling of the Great Wall winding under our feet. In the limited time, put your physical strength into walking on the Great Wall.

Pure climbing routes can be selected for one-way return at appropriate locations: North seventh floor (cableway), North fourth floor (trolley), South fourth floor (ground cable)

Note: The north section passes the north eighth floor and needs to stick to the north 12th exit. The section from the 8th floor of the North to the 12th floor of the North is very steep. It is not recommended for the elderly and children to climb. There is no other way to pass Nanfourth in the south section, so you must return to Nanfourth. If you want to climb everything, you need to go back, which is easy to feel aesthetically tired and your physical strength is exhausted. It takes more than ten minutes to walk back to the ferry station when you get out of the city entrance on foot. Climbing the Great Wall is still decided based on your own physical strength.

2. Cableway/Ground Cable

1. Take the cableway up and down the north seventh floor. This route is the one with the most choices, the most prosperous and lively, and the most crowded. It is suitable for families with elderly people or children, and for those with average physical strength, who do not usually exercise often, and who are determined to climb the "Hero Slope". Climbing directly up from the seventh floor of the North, it is easy to climb to the top of Haohan Slope. The tour time will be much more abundant and you can enjoy it while taking photos and playing.

2. Sit up and down on the fourth floor of the south. This route has the fewest choices and is particularly small. It does not have the trouble of crowded people. It also gets rid of the embarrassment of taking a big photo on the Great Wall. It has few people and is quiet. If no one takes photos casually, you can save energy and devote more energy and energy to appreciating the beautiful scenery of the Great Wall.

3. Take the seventh floor in the north of the cableway, take the fourth floor in the south of the ground cable/Take the fourth floor in the south of the ground cable, and take the seventh floor in the north of the cableway. Cableways and ground cables can be used in common use. The advantage of this route is that there is no turning back, you can keep climbing, and the route is basically close to complete. It doesn't involve the southern line and can reach Haohanpo without leaving any regrets.

3. trochlear

This route is mostly the choice to take care of children. Experience the slowness of the sled.

4. Pulley + cableway/ground cable

1. Take a pulley up and down the fourth floor of the north.

2. Sit on the fourth floor of the north and go under the north seventh floor cable.

3. Sit on the fourth floor of the north and go to the fourth floor of the south.

5. Badaling Great Wall Catering

1. Bring your own dry food because the price in the scenic spot is relatively expensive.

2. Eat at KFC, Subway, Mr. Li and other restaurants on the pedestrian street.

3. Enjoy the delicious food in the food court and enjoy exclusive discounts on Bashi, which is much cheaper than on the mountain.

4. There is also Badaling Hotel in the scenic area, which is decorated in an exquisite and elegant manner. It is said that it has the taste and price of home-cooked food. It is very cost-effective, so you can try it.
