The Jinshanling Great Wall is undoubtedly the most picturesque section of the Great Wall in China. Although it is close to Beijing, it is located in Hebei Province. The journey in one direction takes about 2 hours, while the Mutianyu Great Wall is about 1.5 hours away. The return trip might be delayed (taking around 2.5 hours) due to checkpoints. Apart from the distance, there is nothing to complain about.
Upon reaching the top of the Jinshanling Great Wall and witnessing the breathtaking scenery, all the challenges faced will feel worthwhile.
