You can visit this lesser-known spot to climb the Great Wall

Visiting the Great Wall is a top choice for tourists. There are many Great Wall scenic spots in Beijing, including the most famous Badaling Great Wall, the most convenient Mutianyu Great Wall, as well as Juyongguan Great Wall, Huanghuacheng Water Great Wall, and others. Another lesser-known spot is the Simatai Great Wall. There are fewer tourists here, making it more comfortable to visit. The Simatai Great Wall is located in Miyun, adjacent to the Gubei Water Town scenic area, so you can visit both places together. The Simatai Great Wall has a cable car 🚡, but it is also not very far to walk up.
