BADALING GREAT WALL · THE MING DYNASTY’S STONE SERPENT

#chinatravel

Climb the best-preserved 16th-century battlements where watchtowers pierce the Yan Mountains like stone fangs, and every step follows in the boots of soldiers, merchants, and now—awestruck global pilgrims.

✔ EPIC EXPERIENCES
→ "Hero’s Slope"– Conquer the 45-degree incline where Mao famously declared "No true hero until here"
→ North 8th Tower– The highest point (888m) with Mongolian plateau vistas

📍 Location: 70km NW of Beijing (1hr by high-speed train from Qinghe Station)
🧥 Pro Tip: Wear layers—the Wall creates its own wind tunnels!
