Golden Dragon Great Wall

金龙长城

The Golden Dragon Great Wall is also known as the Luodai Great Wall. This Great Wall is not the world-famous Great Wall, but a replica of it. If you don't have the opportunity to go to the Great Wall in Beijing, you can consider coming here to experience the fun of climbing the Great Wall. The slope of the Great Wall is very steep, but the scenery on the mountain is very good. There are more people on holidays, so friends who don't like crowds can go there during off-peak hours. It is best to bring floral water when climbing the Great Wall to prevent insect bites; pay attention to safety when taking pictures.

It’s fun, but a little tiring, so I recommend wearing flat shoes!

2012.3.8 Visit Luodai Ancient Town + Jinlong Great Wall. Jinlong Great Wall is also the largest simulated Great Wall in China. It lies on Jiuquan Mountain, starting from the gate of Jinlong Lake Scenic Area, and goes up along the ridge to Jinlong Temple. The total length is 1,680 meters. The scenic area is beautiful with clear water and lush trees, and the air is fresh and pleasant.

By Silu Travel |

It is a half-hour drive from Luodai Ancient Town.

By Martian User |

The weather was bad when I went there, it was foggy and hazy, and I couldn't see anything above.

By Treasure cover |

It's just so-so. It's not recommended for tourists from other places to go there specially, but you can go hiking here when you arrive in Luodai. It's okay to go hiking and breathe fresh air.

By who I am |

The Luodai Great Wall was originally named Jinlong Great Wall because it is located in Jinlong Town, Longquanyi District, Chengdu City, Sichuan Province. In 2004, Jinlong Town was transferred to Luodai Town, Longquanyi District, Chengdu City, so it is also called Luodai Great Wall.

By Lonely Traveler in Gray |

The Golden Dragon Great Wall should have been a free and open public welfare project from the beginning. You can visit it while you go to Luodai, but it is not recommended to come here alone.

By Director |

It's quite steep. We didn't finish climbing it because we didn't have enough time. The endless Great Wall

By Monkey Hug 🐒 |

It is very close to Luodai, you can go there on the way. Don't wear high heels. It is not difficult to reach the top, it's pretty good!

By Bouidin_ |

The air at Jinlong Great Wall is very good, but as far as the Great Wall is concerned, there is only one section of the Great Wall. To be honest, it doesn't feel like the Great Wall. Although the ticket is only 10 yuan, it doesn't feel worth it. The scenery there is good, the air is fresh, and it feels far away from the city. You can take it as an experience of what the Great Wall looks like, but it can't be compared with the Great Wall of Beijing. You can take a look, but it's not worth going there specifically. You can take a look when you go to the scenic spots in Luodai!

By Duo Meow Meow |

It is known as the Little Great Wall, and climbing up it requires perseverance.

By Dongzi |

It's generally okay. There is a guy at the top of the mountain who roasts pigeons and they are delicious.

By Bears are everywhere🍀 |

Not far from the Third Ring Road of Chengdu East Gate, the Great Wall is not high and it takes about an hour for children to climb. It is more suitable for taking children to exercise. There is nothing to eat on the top of the mountain. You can bring some fruits up the mountain. It is not the same place as Luodai Ancient Town.

By Martian User |

There are several very steep sections, and it takes about 2 hours to climb the entire way. You can take a car or go down slowly. People who lack exercise should give it a try.

【Golden Dragon Great Wall】I went to Chengdu for a two-day tour, and one of the destinations was the Great Wall. It is said that if you have not been to the Great Wall, you are not a true man! I have been to the Great Wall myself, haha. But it is really steep, and my feet are sore. Fortunately, I met a beautiful woman, and we strolled leisurely, eating and drinking, walking and stopping, which was also quite good. At least there is someone to talk to you on the way of climbing countless stairs.

By Quiet CR7 |

I went there with my brother. Actually, the Great Wall is a road up the mountain. It's a bit long, about 5 kilometers, so beauties should pay attention.

By Dolma Lhamo |

This section of the Great Wall is next to the ancient city of Luodai. If you drive from Chengdu, it takes about 40 minutes by car. There is no ticket. It is not the ancient Great Wall, but a new one built in recent years to attract tourists. It is built against the mountain in a circular shape. I don’t know why a Great Wall was built next to the Hakka ancient city. It seems a bit out of place. The scale of this Great Wall is not large. It is about four or five kilometers long and less than two meters wide. It is a bit like a mini version of the Badaling Great Wall in Beijing. The vegetation on both sides of the Great Wall is very good, the slope is very steep, and it is very tiring to climb. Few people can complete the whole walk. We withdrew before we reached the first beacon tower. There are more people on weekends and holidays~ Pay attention to safety when climbing,

I have been to Luodai several times, but I have never had the opportunity to climb the Great Wall. Although many people think of the Jinlong Great Wall when talking about Luodai, Luodai is actually quite far from the Great Wall and needs to take a bus to get there. During the winter vacation, I went to climb the Great Wall with my friends. It was almost noon when we arrived at the Great Wall. There were many places to eat at the bottom of the Great Wall, such as potato casseroles. The price was acceptable, so we just ate a little. There is a ramp on the Great Wall. There are many locals selling some vegetables, fruits and toys on the ramp. They are all grown by themselves, which are relatively fresh and the price is also reasonable. There are also horses for rent at the bottom of the Great Wall. I don’t know the price, but it’s a bit smelly. Entering the Great Wall, you can see a very steep staircase, which is a bit scary. I saw someone really gave up when he saw this staircase. In fact, there are two higher staircases. The ones behind are not very steep. It only takes more than an hour to climb the entire Great Wall. There are many small vendors on the way, even those selling shoes, considering that some beauties will directly wear high heels to climb. There is a photo booth near the exit of the Great Wall. Interested friends can take photos. There are many snack shops outside the Great Wall. There are also vans that can take you directly to Luodai and then go shopping. There is a temple on the top of the mountain. Maybe because of the high altitude, it feels cool to sit here after climbing the Great Wall. There are not many places to visit inside. There is only a wishing pool that is more popular. It is also very good to try it for a dime.

Generally, people go to the Jinlong Great Wall after going to Luodai. Take the 850 bus directly at the Luodai bus station, and the fare is one yuan. If you don't want to walk to the station, you can also take a private minivan at one end of the ancient town, which costs 10 yuan per person, but many times you need to wait until it is full before you can leave. When you arrive at Jinlong, you can also take a minivan to go up the mountain, which costs 5 yuan per person and 30 yuan per car, but since you are here to climb the Great Wall, there is no point in taking a car. The ticket to the Great Wall is 5 yuan, which is also drunk. It is recommended that you buy water at the entrance of the scenic area or at the small stall just after entering the scenic area. The price is ridiculously expensive when you go up. If it is hot, pay attention to heatstroke prevention. There is a temple on the top of the mountain. You can buy a photo and then go to worship. It is basically climbing the Great Wall. The scenery is so-so, but it is good to exercise and breathe fresh air. There are occasionally fresh fruits for sale in the scenic area, and there are also some fruit yards near the Great Wall. You can choose according to your own situation. There are also some farmhouses nearby to solve meals. When we went there, it was midsummer, the weather was too hot, and there were few people. If you go there, pay attention to heatstroke prevention.

By Kitten, you are the most beautiful |

The company organized a mountain climbing competition in 2007. I have completely forgotten the scenery!

By Xiaochubby |

The first time I saw the Jinlong Great Wall, I felt it was spectacular. Although it is not as magnificent as the Badaling Great Wall, it is a large-scale building built by modern craftsmen in a short time. I bought a ticket to enter the Great Wall (5 yuan/person). The morning is very suitable for morning exercise. The Great Wall is winding upward. There is a beacon tower at intervals. Its brick wall is blue-gray and there are shooting holes on the side of the wall, which is almost the same as the Badaling Great Wall. The stone slab road surface is also very wide. There is a temple at the top - Jinlong Temple. Standing in the temple, you can see far away and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Longquan Mountains. There is also a road behind, and cars can drive directly up.

By Wisdom Fire |

The locals in Chengdu call it the "Fake Great Wall". There is a Jinlong Temple on the top of the mountain. However, the slope is still very steep, reaching more than 60 degrees.

By Nice . alanoo |

Regarding the Great Wall, it is very tiring. There is a long ladder when you go up, and you think it ends there. But it is not the case. There is a longer ladder after that. It is recommended that people with poor physical strength do not go there. It is also best to buy water at the bottom before going up. The price of water at the top is generally 4-8 yuan, and the farther you go, the more expensive it is.

By Sunflower say hey |

If you go to climb the Great Wall, you must remember to bring floral water. You can't see the mosquitoes there, but they are everywhere, especially when the weather is not very sunny. I even brought floral water but my legs were still bitten by them. Yes, I am indeed popular with mosquitoes.

By Jiujiutang wants to travel |

Children with poor physical strength should not go. It is a bit shaky when going up and down the slope, and it is a bit difficult to climb up. It is almost fatal when the weather is hot. There is not much difference from the Great Wall in other places

By Female Zhaolan |

I suggest you go there early in the morning or late in the afternoon to avoid the sun. It's a bit hot~~~ It's best to climb the Great Wall in the morning and go to Luodai Ancient Town at noon~

By HH |

Although this Great Wall is much smaller than the Badaling Great Wall and not as spectacular, it is still a bit strenuous to climb. Since you have come all the way there, it is recommended to climb it. It is not bad.

By The sky is the limit |

The ticket to the Jinlong Great Wall scenic area is very cheap, only 5 yuan, but the Great Wall is very narrow, with only one road going up and down, and separated by iron railings.

By Forget-me-not Rabbit |

Many vans came to pick up passengers. My friend and I chose to take a tricycle. It cost 20 yuan. We sat there for a long time, about half an hour, but it felt so good to drive on the mountain road.

By Muzi Lee Circle |

The Jinlong Great Wall is very long, but we had to rush back to the ancient city to watch the Water Splashing Festival, so we climbed three sections, which was quite tiring....

By Where |

The first time I went there was with my family. We climbed to the top of the mountain and there was a temple on it called Jinlong Temple.

By ____彼時淺薄 |

It's too tiring to climb this place. I went there during the National Day holiday. There were a lot of people and the sun was shining brightly. There is a temple on top, which is worth a visit~!
