Love the hike up and down the walls and also along the border line. I never came so close to the North Korean border. It was not crowded as we went on off peak season. But definitely worth a half day trip to take the hiking in this great country side of Dan Dong city.

Very cool place that lights up at night. It does feel kind of weird looking at the North Korean city across the Yalu River and seeing very few lights compared to the neon riverside streets of Dandong. Also feels a bit morally ambiguous too, being so close to North Korea.

Very nice hiking trail. Very safe, outstanding views and clean. The hike is easy and well secured. Absolutely no need for cable cars or shuttles. Bring 6 to 7 hours time to cover the complete route. Overall it was not crowded, except for the area around the glass walk since it is easy reachable by cable car and many people just seem to go there and nowhere else. Entrance fee was a very fair 80 CNY. If you take shuttles and cable cars you can easily spent 3 times more.

Nice place , peacefull

"The Dragon Head" This is where the famous wall ends at the sea. Most of this wall has been rebuilt but there are still some areas where they kept the original brick intact and protected. About 50rmb charge for the wall, beach side and areas around. Other activities cost a little extra but I didn't do them. Great place for taking pictures and lots of walking around. There is also a nice maze you can enjoy getting lost in. About 1.5hrs from Beijing or Tianjin on the bullet train. A day spent here should be enough.

To compare with chinese wall in Beijing (badaling and mutianyu), here are not so crowded like there. It‘s also a nice place for kids to play (on the beach and in the Labyrinth)

👍👍👍👍👍

(Translated by Google) I give this place full marks! Let’s talk about the ticket price first. It’s 100 for adults in peak season, half price for students, and only 25 in off-season! It can be said to be very conscientious, and the quality is also very high, especially in the wild animal area where there are many animals. There are about 6 or 7 of each type of lions, tigers, and bears. Unlike other zoos where the animals can't move. The animals here are very active, at least they are walking around. The lion rubbed against our cage car, and a tiger came over and lay on the railway track. The sika deer are free-range, so you can get close to them, and no one charges. I also I took a photo with the sika deer. The only thing that needs to be improved is the safety issue. The wolves seem to be free-range...really won't escape? The two iron gates in the beast area actually open and close at the same time? ? ? Then there is no point in building two doors! ! ! (Original) 这个地方我给满分！先说说票价，旺季成人100，学生半价，淡季只要25！可以说是非常良心了，而且质量也非常高，尤其是猛兽区动物非常多，狮子、老虎、熊大概每种都有6、7只的样子，不像别的动物园的动物帕着不动，这里的动物都很活跃，至少走来走去的，狮子蹭着我们的笼子车，还有只老虎走过来趴铁轨上，梅花鹿是散养的，可以近距离接触，也没有人收费，我还和梅花鹿照了相。唯一有待提高的就是安全性问题，狼看起来都是散养...真的不会跑出来？猛兽区的两道铁门竟然是一起开关？？？那建两道门都啥用！！！

It was covered with bricks, thickened, repaired and reinforced during the Longqing and Wanli years of the late Ming Dynasty. Among them, there are 21 watchtowers and 4,552 meters of well-preserved Great Wall. The marble Great Wall here is about 1,500 meters long, 10 meters high, and 5 meters wide. The bottom of the city and the foundation of the watchtowers are mostly made of marble, which is very rare in Wanliguan Mountain. The Shenwei Tower on the west mountain was built in the Bingshen year of Wanli in the Ming Dynasty (1596). It has a unique shape and a watch tower and oars. It is rare along the Great Wall. The horse breeding pen on the east mountain (also known as the Lie City, is actually the Moon City). ), which echoes the castle on the bank of the Baiyang River and is the horn of each other. It is one of the unique features of Qian'an among the Great Walls. There are forests of flowers and trees in the tourist area, and the fragrance of fruits is overflowing. The water quality of the 260 acres of water is clear, and the sheep spring water is cool and silent, trickling continuously all year round. Guanyin Pavilion stands on the top of the mountain, and Shuiquan Temple is hidden in the mountains. The golden Buddha is peaceful and mysterious with its back on the green hills, and the statue of King of Medicine dominates the castle to protect peace. The Baiyang River flows through the canyon from north to south, with rippling blue waves, green pines and cypresses on the river banks, towering castles, and residential buildings. The beauty of the south of the Yangtze River and the scenery of the north are harmonious.

The Chinese bought this Soviet aircraft carrier and used it for research and development before turning it into a hotel & tourist spot. You can find a fake Russian village nearby as a tourist trap

Huangyaguan Great Wall is located in Jizhou District, Tianjin, China. It is a very nice Ming Dynasty Great Wall in China. The surrounding area has a nice scenic view covered by a green forest.

Fascinating, very clean, strategically located and easily accessible. Well maintained with interesting gardens, sculptures and beautiful lake. However, during winter it's very cold. Temperature can dropped to minus 8 . The interesting thing is that visitors can walk across the lake and river as they are frozen. It can be a different feeling of thrill all together to be able to play and walk on the surface of the frozen lake and river despite the trees have shed their leaves. The surrounding is amazing with beautiful tall buildings standing majestically from the lake side to a far.

Decent historical hotel in riverside, the first president of Republic of China lived in here during setting up the new China government ROC. It’s also has the very first one electronic elevator in whole China country in hotel’s museum.

Tianjin Museum is by far the largest museum of such kind in China. It is more than hundred years old as it started its journey in 1908. The museum is five storied, plus one basement. It has a cafetaria, as well as a nice souvenir shop. The middle area, where there is a staircase, is huge and gives a bold public character to the building. There is a huge courtyard in front of the museum. It now houses relucs, artworks, artifacts to show the rich culture, heritage and history of Tianjin region.

Worth the 3 hours drive from Beijing. Area is so scenic especially the Gubei Watertown. The climb to the watchtower can be challenging in parts for seniors who don’t exercise much. We took the cable car up and down so that saves us time and energy. The view up at the watchtower is spectacular, with cool air and we were fortunate to experience sunny weather during our visit.

The first place in China have service for walking Great Wall at night with light. This romance town has it own beauty with good service, hotel and food. Oh and the cats so lovely

In my personal opinion, this is by far the most under-rated scenic spots in and around Beijing area. First, it is well connected with super highway only 2.5 hour drive from the downtown. Not like the other section, which is even more popular known as Mutianyu, 50% is super highway, the other half is normal state road, with many stop lights and intersections. Although it is much closer to the city, facting the time of traffic it normally takes the same time to get there. So although Jinshanling is even further but it takes almost the same time. Second, the wall here are roughly half repaired the other half as original. By law and national protection regulations, the most authentic Great Wall near Beijing area you can see which opened as a scenic spot. Third, 金山岭大酒店, Jinshanling Great Wall hotel, located less than 100m away from the west entrarea of the scenic spot, western standard 4-5 star hotel rooms, it also offers individual private courtyards with multiple rooms for family. Last but not least, it is much much less crowded than the other sections of the Great Wall. So if you really want the climbing/walking/exploring experience, this is the best place you should be heading for.
