2X1: Ancient ruins versus modernisation

 Great Wall Adventure Club is the only authorized business that is approved by the Great Wall Administration Office to offer camping on the Great Wall to all our customers. We are not like any other Tour guide company. We are unique because 100% of our focus is on the customer. To camp on the Great Wall legally, we pay a fee to the Great Wall Administration Office that allows us access to places no other companies have the authority to do so. Great Wall Adventure Club is not only the perfect guide for your Great Wall hike and camping experience but the only one.  

The best of Beijing starts at the famous forbidden city and a walk-in Tiananmen Square. Then onto the Olympic Green, where China held the 2008 Olympics and will again hold the 2022 winter Olympics. We will head north to explore one of the wonders of the world, the Great Wall at Jinshanling. Famous for its construction and watchtowers. You will then get to experience a night on the Great Wall camping in a watchtower! The next day you'll hike to Gubeikou, an unrestored section of the Great Wall, also known as the 'wild' Great Wall.

An early wakeup call to watch the sunrise over the Great Wall and then onto Huanghuacheng, Great Wall. 

An early wakeup call at about 5:30 is to take in the wonderful sunrise over the Great Wall. 

We will resume our hike on Jinshanling's right-wing, where we will hike until we reach Simatai West called the Second Valley. The Wall gradually deteriorates along this section, making it quite challenging, but this is what makes this hike so unique as you get to experience the untouched Great Wall dating back hundreds of years.
 

The Jinshanling Great Wall possesses a great opportunity to take in some fabulous views. Make sure to take your camera. You will not be disappointed! This part of the Great Wall has not been repaired since 1570. It is very remote, but it's what makes it so unique and a great chance to experience the nature and the wild parts of the Wall.
 

It is a great place to explore on foot. According to one hiker, this is what you should expect to find at Jinshanling:  
 

Jinshanling Great Wall hiking towards Simatai was amazing! If you have not been on the Great Wall, do your research first, as many other sections are crammed with tourists, and you don't get to enjoy it. Jinshanling was just out of this world, beautiful, quiet, and beautiful views of your surroundings! I will never forget it!  
 

After completing this hike we will have some lunch and then back to your hotel around 4pm.
