Om denne aktiviteten

The Huanghuacheng section of the Great Wall is located in Huairou District, about 60 kilometers (37.3 miles) from Beijing. It was so named for the abundant yellow flowers (in Chinese: Huang Hua) that bloom in midsummer. It is also known as the Great Wall under the Water, because three separate sections of the wall are submerged in the Xishuiyu Reservoir. It is famous for its harmonious mixture of the splendid great wall, beautiful mountains and blue water surrounding.

Your professional tour guide will meet you at your hotel lobby at 8:00am and take you to Huanghuacheng by private vehicle (1.5 hour).

This section of the Great Wall was renovated based on the original style, steep and hazardous.

No parapets on neither-side. Follow by the ridge to the top where you can have a bird-eye-view of the reservoir, the awarding spectacular view of the Great Wall in the mountain and lake. Walking downwards on this part of the original wild part to . The total trek is around 5 to 6 hours, and lunch meal is included in this tour (lunch begins around 2:00pm, and you will be given some free snacks if you are hungry before lunch time).

Great experience! Definitely the best I've done in my trip to China. The view is amazing as expected and almost no people during the hike - feels like an exclusive location. Part of this section wall hasn't been renovated and part has been slighty, which is great as it still has an authentic feel to it - because of this good footwear and trousers are a must! The tour unfolded exactly as the itinerary says, drive to and from the wall was comfortable - nice car, safe driving and I can imagine it would be virtually impossible to get there without knowing the way. My tour guide was Tony and he was fantastic, really have to thank him alot for this experience. Very friendly and knew alot of the wall's history and particularites - very nice to chat with during the hike, and his english is excellent. At the end of tour we stopped at a restaurant at one of the villages close to the wall and food was excellent aswell - typical chinese food and felt like homemade food. It was better than the fancier restaurants you find in the bigger cities. Definitely recommend this tour!

This was a great trip done on our time at our pace. The service and lunch was great. Our personal guide was very knowledgable about the wall. I learned several new details that were fascinating about the history of the Great Wall. I have been to Beijing twice before and was looking for a different experience for the Great Wall. This was by far awesome, but would have liked the option of going to the lake to capture the wall going into the lake. I would do this type of trip again.

If you're an adventurer and want to get away from tourism crowds, this is the trip for you! The day planned unraveled exactly as the itinerary stated. The tour guide and driver were very professional, with plenty of information, and always had my safety as a top priority. This was the best way to experience the Great Wall. I could have hiked 10km more! It's rigorous, fun, and unforgettable.

This was an awesome trip! Our tour guide, Miko called the night before to confirm our meeting time and place. He was right on time. Due to the excessive heat, we decided it was best to do half the hike 5 km rather than the 10 or so planned. The ride to and from the wall was beautiful. The views on the hike were incredible and lunch was excellent. I highly recommend this tour.

This is without doubt the best way to see the wall. Our guide Daniel was outstanding. There is a 1.5 - 2 hour drive from the centre of Beijing which Daniel filled with a comprehensive historical background on China and the wall. You start the trek on a refurbished part of the wall and the views within minutes are incredible. The best part - no people! That makes for some great photos and a far more peaceful and authentic experience. The trek lasts around 4 hours and covers both new and old sections of the wall. Good footwear is a must! There is a great lunch at the end and even a certificate as a souvenir. This was the best thing we did in Beijing - book it!

James gave a great tour. This was a lovely section, mostly wild and very few people. James adjusted his pace to suit us easily and was always courteous. He nearly got in a fight with one peddler trying to sell us trinkets, but he told us to go on. Best of all, the lunch was the best we had on the trip. We would certainly take a tour with James again the next time we visit.
