Simatai Great Wall Review

A great piece of renovated Great Wall to visit - entry that includes cable car is on the pricier side but unless you are super fit I recommend taking cable car at least up if not both ways as the wall is quite steep. If you are a confident walker then taking cable car up and walking along the wall and back down to the start would be a great option. We went up in autumn on a perfect day and the photo opportunities were fantastic. You can also go up at night but you have to pay for that separately - we thought going up in the day was best for us (I had my older parents with me).

Simatai Great Wall is located in the north of Simatai Village, Gubeikou Town, north of Miyun District, northeast of Beijing, close to Gubei Water Town, 120 kilometers from Beijing, belonging to the Yanshan Mountains, Simatai Great Wall is built on the steep mountain, and is known for its five characteristics of danger, dense, Qi, Qi, Qi and all. The Simatai Great Wall rises from Wangjing Building to the east, and from the west to Houchuankou. The length of the Great Wall is5.7 kilometers. Among them, Wuhu Reservoir divides the Great Wall into two sections. There are 16 enemy buildings in the east and 19 enemy buildings in the west, with a total of 35 (including one in the water that has been destroyed). In 1987, the Simatai Great Wall was listed on the World Heritage List, and is the only ancient architectural site in China that retains the original appearance of the Ming Dynasty, and is designated by UNESCO as the "Original Great Wall". Luo Zhewen, a famous ancient architect in China, once said that "the Great Wall of China is the world's most, and the Great Wall of Simatai is the most". In 2012, the Great Wall of Simatai was named "the top 25 scenery in the world that cannot be missed" by the British Times. The Simatai Great Wall was built in the early years of Ming Hongwu (AD 1373), and was built on the basis of the Great Wall of Beiqi, under the jurisdiction of the ancient north road of Zhongmu Town of the Ming Dynasty "Jiuzhen". During the Ming Wanli period, Qi Jiguang, the general soldier of Jingyu Town, and the governor, Yuan led the troops to carry out key renovations, greatly improving the defense system. Its mountain is steep, the terrain is steep, the project is vast, easy to guard, and the wind speed is large.

There is a shuttle bus directly to Simatai at the Simatai Great Wall ticket office. It is very convenient to leave at 10:00 am. I climbed up and walked down. It was really difficult to climb at the beginning. It was tired. It may be that the physical fitness was poor. I carried the mineral water of 1.5L. After drinking, I didn't go to the toilet. I was very sweaty. I climbed from the 3rd floor. It was open to the 10th floor. The 5th and 8th floors can be used for the cable car. The overall feeling is very good! After returning from the original road, there is a shuttle bus back to the ticket office. It takes about four or five minutes to arrive. There is also a luggage storage on the Simatai Great Wall. You can store large items to reduce the burden of mountaineering.

The beautiful Great Wall is the greatness of the Chinese. The hard work of the Chinese, the environmental protection is very good, like it!

There are too many people on National Day, the management of the attractions is very good, the scenic spot is clean, the scenery is pleasant, like it!

At noon, I took my baby to climb to the third floor to the first campfire. It was not difficult. It took about an hour. The middle section of the road was slow. The two steps were a little steep and the traffic was not large. The public toilets near the bridge were clean and tidy. There were paper towels in each squat. There is hand sanitizer in the hand washing. It is rare to make such details in the bathroom in the scenic area. You must like it.
