Highlights
- Mutianyu Great Wall - Favored by international tourists visiting Beijing, Mutianyu is an accessible segment of the Great Wall perched atop the peaks of Yangshan mountain. Approximately 90 minutes by car from Beijing, Mutianyu offers a variety of amenities including a cable car, chairlift, and a toboggan run, making it an ideal spot for those eager to experience the Great Wall of China. To avoid the influx of visitors, it’s advisable to arrive early, around 8 AM.\n\nThe culinary workshop at the Great Wall is hosted at a quaint family-owned eatery situated at the base of the Mutianyu section. Your hosts, Lily and Yang, a hospitable couple with two children, are descendants of the Great Wall’s ancient garrison. Their establishment has welcomed international guests for many years, thanks to its advantageous location near the original entrance of the Mutianyu Great Wall. However, the construction of a new ticket office, complete with modern entrances, a shuttle bus system, and retail outlets 2 kilometers from the old entryway, has shifted visitor traffic away. Consequently, their charming restaurant has embarked on a new venture. In the spring of 2018, Lily launched her dumpling-making course. With over three decades of experience in crafting dumplings and sufficient English skills for communication, Lily offers a unique culinary experience. If you’re looking to bypass the commercial areas and shuttle bus queues, and if you’re keen on savoring handmade dumplings for lunch, as well as tasting other local specialties prepared by Lily and Yang, then join us for an unforgettable day filled with the finest cuisine!

Great Wall Trip - Larry was great. He was punctual and very attentive to making me comfortable and welcomed. His vehicle was clean and very comfortable as well. I enjoyed the local restaurant he took me to as well as the guidance and information he provided to connect the dots of the history of the Great Wall and the Emporer’s Sunmer Palace. I highly recommend Larry.
