What to expect
Badaling is the most popular section of the Great Wall of China, largely due to to its accessibility - it is close to Beijing and is easily reached with public transportation. Other added features such as smaller stairs, handrails and cable cars make it a great option for all visitors! The cable cars bring you to North Tower Eight, the highest point in the area and a perfect spot for photos: it is the best area on the wall to watch the sunrise or sunset and to observe how expansive the wall is as it snakes around the mountains. This trip is a treat for anyone, but the history buffs will get a real thrill out of this tour! Going to Badaling lets you relive the lengthy history of the Great Wall: you will see and explore the watchtowers that were used to communicate and store supplies, as well as observe the tiny holes drilled into the wall that were used to spy on enemies and to shoot arrows through. Walking on the wall gives you a real feel of the battles that it witnessed, particularly how it was reinforced during the Ming Dynasty to prevent the Mongols from entering Beijing. This section of the wall is also conveniently located near the Great Wall Museum, where you can learn even more about the site. A journey to Badaling gives you an unrivaled experience of the Great Wall and is a must try for any traveler, especially for first timers to China!

Overall, Badaling is a must-visit for anyone in Beijing—whether for sightseeing, photos, or just experiencing one of the world’s greatest wonders. 🏯✨
Quick responses from Klook. Worth for the price. I can literally explore both the north and south sides of the wall. I took the cable car near the high speed rail station, hiked downhill and climbed up to the south, took the tram back down.
Easy accessible to Great Wall via the cable car, using the QR code. As for the ticket to Great Wall, need to exchange the ticket in order to get in.
Easy access to Great Wall via cable car, using the QR code. However, entry to Great Wall need to exchange ticket. Nice view and a place that must visit!
Everything worked out great on site. With the QR code that is sent, simply stand in the gondola queue. After the security check is the ticket counter where you get the actual tickets. Take your time and preferably don't go on a weekend, it was very crowded. No drones allowed, they must be handed over.
A must do activity in Baijing is going to the Great Wall. You can get to its entry with wheelchairs! after that need to climb as much as your physical fitness allows. You can do this for hours enjoying the spectacular views and the rich history. The Balading section gets crowded soon so better to visit early morning or the evening ( it is open at night too)! Take a hat and warm cloths as it is getting windy up the mountains.
Taking the cable car up to the Badaling Great Wall is really convenient and saves a lot of energy.
This trip was so much fun and better than I expected. I received excellent service from KLOOK. Booking was convenient, and I felt confident with every reservation. There were no cancellations, and the information provided was complete. The trip I chose was exactly what I expected, and even more. I was very impressed. The Badaling section of the Great Wall is a must-see for travelers. I booked my train tickets, admission tickets, and various activities here and don't regret it at all.
I searched through several purchasing agent websites, but none of them sold admission tickets or round-trip cable car tickets for the Badaling Great Wall course. Klook, however, had them! I was very satisfied. For the North Line, you take a cable car, and for the South Line, you take something like a cart to go up the Great Wall. Personally, if you want a thrilling and memorable trip, I recommend the South Line cart. Make sure to buy your admission ticket separately and your round-trip transport ticket separately so you don't get flustered at the site!
I visited at the end of January, but there was no snow and the weather was sunny, so I was able to walk to both the northern and southern ends! There are many places with very steep slopes, so I think it's a good idea to work hard and use the ropeway for just one way. The view was also amazing.
