Take the cable car or ski lift to the Wall, then spend about 1.5 hours hiking through various sections. After your hike, you can opt for a fun toboggan ride back down. Mutianyu is slightly more rugged and less crowded compared to the more famous Badaling. Following the drive from the Great Wall to the Summer Palace, you’ll enjoy pleasant views and a cooler summer climate. Begin by exploring the Palace Area to see the opulent lifestyle of the Imperial Family, then stroll through the world’s longest corridor adorned with paintings. If available and at your own expense, you can board an Imperial Ferry Boat on Kunming Lake to take in the breathtaking scenery of this expansive Imperial Garden, which was a birthday gift from an emperor to his mother nearly 300 years ago.
