Overview
The Jinshanling Great Wall was first built in the sixth century, there are 67 watchtowers, all in different styles, at average intervals of 150 meters. Photographers know that the best place to take pictures of the Great Wall is not Badaling or Shanhaiguan, but Jinshanling, which is the best-preserved stretch, so many overseas visitors choose it. People also say that anyone who has climbed Jinshanling is not interested in seeing any other part of the Great Wall, as it retains its original Ming Dynasty outlook, and so vividly reflects the full ethos of that epoch.

Amazing trip! happy to see the wall empty LOL
I had a layover in Beijing, and this tour was perfect for that!
This is my first time in Beijing, and the Great Wall has always been the view I’ve wanted to see most. I finally got to check that off my list! The view from the Great Wall really blew me away—seriously, when I stood on it, I almost cried. It’s just so majestic. This tour covers transfers, tickets, and the shuttle bus, so it’s really convenient. Highly recommend!
