Mutianyu Great Wall
The Mutianyu Section of the Great Wall has 1500 years of history (see below) and today’s wall is a replica of the fortifications of 1568. The wall, built with slabs of granite, is 22km long, seven or eight meters high and four or five meters wide, crenellated on both sides. With the greens of pines and cypresses covering ninety percent of the surrounding area, the scenery here is beautiful all the year round. Rimmed by mountains, it is filled with beautiful flowers in spring; abundantly verdant in summer; charming with red-leafed maple trees in autumn and enchanting covered in pure white snow in winter. Mutianyu is a super location to appreciate the grandness of the Great Wall as well as to avoid the crowds at Badaling. Mutianyu Great Wall really deserves to be the archetype of the Great Wall.
