FEEDBACK

 "A great trip, well organized, with a friendly group. It was everything we wanted it to be: we got the hike (wonderful), we got snacks and water, we were picked up and delivered back, and we had a great lunch to round it off. Absolutely recommended. I'd go with GWA again, no hesitation. The four of us were also extremely grateful to GWAC for refunding the money of the fifth member of the party, who was too ill to come, without any quibbles. That was kind, and left us with a very good feeling!" -

    The Fun Day at Jinshanling

    Between 6:20 am and 7:30 am, you will be picked up from your hotel or go to our meeting point at Chaoyangmen Station Entry/Exit A of Subway Line 2 or 6 to meet your guide and bus. Please visit this meeting page for the details. 


    From there we will make the approximate 2.5 hour drive to the Great Wall at Jinshanling. A day earlier, you’ll hear from your tour guide about the estimated pickup time from your hotel’s phone or your personal Chinese mobile phone. If you have to skip your breakfast, we have free breads and bottled water for you on board. 

    The Great Wall at Jinshanling is just one of the most effective managed parts of the Great Wall with many original features. It got its name since it was improved the Greater as well as Lesser Jinshan (Gold Mountain, essentially) Ranges. A tablet computer with the Chinese inscription for Jinshanling Great Wall surface was established into this area. The Jinshanling Great Wall Surface has not been repaired since 1570. It is a remote as well as fairly separated area of the Great Wall. As there are relatively couple of visitors at Jinshanling Great Wall Surface, it is definitely a great place to explore walking and see the genuine Great Wall.  


    After regarding 90 mins of hiking we will ultimately pass over into the West Simtai which is now a part of Jinshanling geographically. Capitals in the west are sloping gently, with 20 watchtowers continuing to be in good shape. The Simatai section of the Great Wall surface is one of the few areas to maintain the original look of the Great Wall. Including a selection of qualities of various other sections of the Great Wall surface, Simatai additionally presents some one-of-a-kind features of its very own. It is frequently defined with the adhering to five words: dangerous, dense, diverse, artful, and peculiar. 


    Following our trek, we will stop at a local restaurant where you will have a gourmet lunch with fresh and authentic rural Chinese dishes.
