How long will you be in China?

Where will you be in China?

For a quick and dirty opportunity to see the Great Wall, Badaling outside of Beijing is your best shot. But Badaling is crawling with tourists and loaded with vendors trying to get you to spend a few RMB.

The Great Wall is impressive in its own right and there is nothing that can really take away from it, although there may be better places to see it. The people who have visited those places will fill you in....

You can fly from your current city to Beijing then choose a tour company or you go to visit Great Wall by yourself by map . Yours sincerely, Susan Zheng ( China Tour Guide)

Hi, There are about 5 main sites of the Great Wall you may be interested in.
If you want a normail tour for the Great Wall, go to the Badaling site，which is far from BJ about 80 KM. But it's crowd and the ticket is quite pricy. So I strongly recommend to go to Huanghua city site, which is called Water Great Wall. Jinshanling site is 130KM far from BJ. Shimatai site is also a good place to go. If you like adventure and photography, the Jiankou site is the best place to go.
If u want more help, pl contact with me by email
