What To Expect

Mutianyu Great Wall

Mutianyu (Chinese: 慕田峪; pinyin: Mùtiányù) is a section of the Great Wall of China located in Huairou County 75 km northeast of central Beijing.As one of the best-preserved parts of the Great Wall, the Mutianyu section of the Great Wall used to serve as the northern barrier defending the capital and the imperial tombs. First built in the mid-6th century during the Northern Qi, Mutianyu Great Wall is older than the Badaling section of the Great Wall. In the Ming dynasty, under the supervision of General Xu Da, construction of the present wall began on the foundation of the wall of Northern Qi. In 1404, a pass was built in the wall. In 1569, the Mutianyu Great Wall was rebuilt and till today most parts of it are well preserved. The Mutianyu Great Wall has the largest construction scale and best quality among all sections of Great Wall. Built mainly with granite, the wall is 7–8.5 metres high and the top is 4–5 metres wide. Compared with other sections of Great Wall, Mutianyu Great Wall possesses unique characteristics in its construction.

Driver very punctual and courteous. He bought for us the tickets by sending us the images of the qrcodes necessary to take the cable car and the sledge for the descent. For other access points, simply show the passport that is combined with the ticket. The driver speaks excellent English and we were able to understand his directions perfectly. If you don't want to stress out about getting to the wall, I recommend it.

It was perfect. The driver was in the hotel lobby in time, we arrived to the Great Wall as scheduled. He waited for us, he gave us details and advices. He even came along to help us get out get our postcard tickets from the counter, as the lady there was not speaking English. His language skills are good, he understood everything and responded to our questions very comprehensive.
