八达岭长城
Badaling Great Wall
Badaling is a commonly visited section of the Great Wall near Beijing. Walk along open sections to observe watchtowers, mountain terrain and defensive architecture. It is jointly listed with Mutianyu as a 5A tourist area, but they do not share an entrance and their tickets and transport are not interchangeable. Reference photographs record autumn walls and mountain scenery; plan around the day’s open sections, crowds and visibility.

Opening hours
Confirmed opening hours are not available on this page. Check opening and last-entry times with the venue before setting out.
Getting there
Confirm rail or road transport to Badaling rather than another Great Wall section. Allow time for connections from the station to the entrance and security checks.
Practical notes
Wall steps are steep and uneven. Choose a route suited to your fitness, do not mark the bricks or climb over battlements, and confirm ticketing and suspension conditions for cable cars and other activities separately.
