Climb high and look far, the Badaling Great Wall in the golden autumn is so stunning

As one of China's most distinctive historical buildings, the Great Wall is not only an ancient military fortification that Chinese people are proud of, but also one of the world's breathtaking and important cultural heritages. A series of tall and solid long walls are continuous, winding from Shanhaiguan to Jiayuguan, running through most of China. The scale of the spectacular buildings and the majesty are unsurpassed so far.

As a native of Beijing, my favorite season is the golden autumn of October, when the mountains and plains are filled with red and yellow. In autumn, the Great Wall gradually changes from green to gold, and then slowly to red. There is a hint of bright red in the yellow and green, which adds a lot of color to the originally monotonous city, like a tone that God has knocked over. The color palette is extremely beautiful.

Standing on the tower of the beacon tower and looking into the distance, the red maples all over the hillside are so stunning, giving the majestic and isolated Great Wall a touch of autumn tenderness.

Although the Badaling Great Wall is only a certain section of the entire Great Wall, it is also famous for its towering and steepness. As the outpost of Juyong Pass, the Badaling Great Wall has the ancient name "The danger of Juyong Pass is not in the pass but in Badaling" and also has the reputation of "Jade Pass Natural Moat". Therefore, the Badaling Great Wall is one of the few Great Wall scenic spots in Beijing that is worth walking through in person. one.

The entire scenic spot is divided into northern and southern lines. There are 8 watchtowers opened on the north line, and you can take the gondola cableway to the north seventh floor. There are 5 watchtowers opened on the south line, and you can take the cool ground cable car to the south fifth floor. Because the northern route is relatively more steep, with more open watchtowers and a higher view, it is more challenging to climb the Great Wall, so there are relatively more tourists.

However, this time I did my homework and chose the relatively niche southern route. The crowds are relatively less and the experience is doubled.

I took the elevator and followed the signs all the way to the cable car station. I thought it was a gondola cable car like the Northern Line. Unexpectedly, the Southern Line turned out to be a ground cable car with panoramic windows. The cable car is not only surrounded by floor-to-ceiling bay windows, but also has a large piece of glass on the roof, allowing tourists to visit the Badaling Great Wall at all times without blind spots.

In the red leaf season at this time, on the hillside on both sides of the track, the maple trees turned red and gradually formed a sea of ??red. When the small train passed through it, it was like walking through After passing through a red tunnel, the beautiful scenery is amazing.

As soon as I got out of the cable car station, the first thing I saw was the most classic stone tablet that read "He who has not visited the Great Wall is not a hero". Such a famous stone monument also made me unable to avoid taking a few tourist photos. After all, no matter what method I use to climb the mountain, I am still a hero now

I continued walking along the path and came to Nan On the city wall between the fourth and south fifth floors. Standing on the observation deck, you can see the Badaling Great Wall under the beautiful wind and sunshine. It is winding and entrenched on the top of the mountains, like a giant dragon, quietly guarding here, day after day, generation after generation. .

As one of the nine fortresses in the world, the Badaling Great Wall has also ushered in its unique style in the gorgeous red and yellow autumn. It is majestic and majestic with a touch of beauty, and majestic with a touch of romance. It can be said that it is the essence of the scenery of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty.

As someone who loves taking photos, I naturally cannot miss beautiful portraits! Although there is no one in the field of view on the southern route, with the beacon tower as the background and a good angle, you can still easily get the "private feeling" in the lens!

In addition to the city walls, beacon towers are naturally indispensable. The beacon tower on the fourth floor of the south is the highest observation deck on the south line. Whether overlooking the South Third Floor from the beacon tower or looking at the mountains through the brick wall, the surroundings have gradually turned into a sea of ??red. The majestic Great Wall also has a hint of romance in the red color of the mountain.

Although the Daling Great Wall has not changed much as a world heritage site, today’s scenic spots are no longer just the Great Wall, and the supporting facilities are not what they used to be. For example, on this bustling commercial promenade, there are a dazzling array of gourmet restaurants, gift shops, and all kinds of fast food including fried noodles, Goubuli, and dumpling restaurants.

Badaling Hotel

However, I still recommend the old and classic Badaling Hotel. Not only is the decoration high-end, but the taste of the dishes is also amazing. Although they only cook some home-cooked meals, you can see the chefs' intentions.

In addition to dining, Badaling Hotel also hides an amazing viewpoint overlooking the northern line of the Great Wall! Because it is blocked by the trees on both sides of the main street, if you want to see the winding Great Wall on the northern line, the best viewing point is actually the dining hall of the Badaling Hotel. When the red leaves on both sides are all red, it will definitely be more charming than being in it!

Fantasy Great Wall Dome Cinema

To be honest, the last time I saw a dome movie was when I was a child at the Beijing Planetarium. At that time, I thought the effect was so shocking and dreamy, so when I heard about it, There is also a dome theater on the Badaling Great Wall, which is so popular that you can’t miss it.

The Dream Great Wall Dome Cinema is actually a dome 3D dynamic cinema that combines 360-degree stereoscopic movies with dynamic seats, allowing tourists to "personally" experience the rich history and culture of five thousand years up and down the Great Wall.

The film will be played on time every time. It mainly uses visual methods such as leaps and shuttles and a shocking and exciting visual experience to tell the cycle of the Great Wall's alternation of seasons from ancient times to the present. The entire film begins with the construction of the Great Wall. After experiencing wars and reconstructions from generation to generation, it is not easy to still be able to flash through the changing seasons and show the beauty of the Great Wall. At the end of the film, it ends with the surreal Great Wall of Space, showing people today's bold conjectures and prospects for future life.

Great Wall Cultural and Creative Gift Shop

How could I miss the cultural and creative products of the Badaling Great Wall when I have to save a small souvenir every time I go to a scenic spot? The Great Wall Cultural and Creative Gift Shop is located in Guancheng Square, the pedestrian entrance to the Badaling Great Wall.

In recent years, the cultural and creative products in domestic tourist attractions have changed from the shoddy quality of small workshops in the past. From creative design to materials and workmanship, they have become more and more sophisticated. Every time I visit a cultural and creative store, , can't resist the urge to buy, buy, buy.

When I stepped into the gift shop this time, I was attracted by the dazzling array of cultural and creative products. There are many kinds of cultural and creative products, covering basically all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation. It can be said that there is everything you need. Personally, I prefer the Great Wall Four Seasons Bookmark, which has a sense of design and excellent workmanship, Qin Xiaobing and Ming Xiaobing, which represent the characteristics of the Badaling Great Wall, and the ultra-finely crafted Sun Wukong Peking Opera doll ornaments. It’s really hard to choose!

It was my second time to visit the Badaling Great Wall in my life, and I was shocked by the beautiful autumn colors unexpectedly.

So I made a mental note to take the Great Wall Bus when it snows this winter and come to Badaling Great Wall to enjoy the snow scenery!
