Shuiguan Great Wall

The Shuiguan Great Wall is adjacent to the Badaling Great Wall scenic area and is part of the eastern section of the Badaling Great Wall. The Shuiguan Great Wall is not very famous, and the scenery is relatively ordinary among many Great Wall scenic areas. However, there are very few tourists here. Climbing the Great Wall is very quiet. Without the crowded scenes, it is also very suitable for taking photos.


The Shuiguan Great Wall scenic area is not large. Inside the scenic area, there are Great Walls on the east and west sides. The climbing paths on both sides have been renovated and iron handrails have been added, so it is relatively safe. The Great Wall on the west side is very gentle and the journey is short. It is a place where most people will take a leisure walk. It is also very suitable for the elderly, children, and those with weak physical strength to play.


The east side is much steeper and the journey is longer, suitable for young people to climb. In addition to climbing the Great Wall, after coming down from the Great Wall, you will come to the former residence of Zhan Tianyou. When Zhan Tianyou was building the railway, he stayed here. At present, there are some simple photos and cultural relics on display in the former residence, which you can go and watch.


It is more appropriate to spend about half a day playing in the entire scenic area. If you only take a simple look at the Great Wall on the west side, about two hours will be enough. Opening hours: Open from 09:00 to 16:00 from November 1 to February 8; Open from 09:00 to 16:30 from April 1 to October 31; Open from 06:30 to 16:30 from February 9 to February 17; Open from 09:00 to 16:00 from February 18 to March 31; Open from 08:00 to 17:00 on Labor Day and National Day.
