Tour Beijing Journal
Plan your Beijing tour on the scorching summer days this July and August?...

Now you don't have to put a thick layer of sunscreen on your face and are able to hike the wall in a comfortable temperature.

We'd like to offer some relevant information on the night tours of Mutianyu Great Wall. We hope it will be helpful planning your own trip to Mutianyu Great Wall in the evening.

There are about 20 towers on Mutianyu Great Wall. For its night tours, only the towers from No. 10 to No. 15 are open to public for the night tours.

The night tour starts at 5 pm, that means you are able to enjoy watching the mesmerizing sunset over the Wall if you are lucky to have a fine day for your night tour.
Of course, the biggest draw are the illuminated lights on the watch towers ( 10-15), and the linear wall washers set on the Wall, creating a cool and fancy atmosphere of a lit-up dragon wonderland, a modern lighting art.
Also, a series of activities with traditional cultural connotations will be held at Mutianyu Great Wall, including Han Clothing Culture Display, dance performance and so on.

In addition, for the night tour, the local administration office operates a small classroom for children between the ages of 6 and 12. Children can not only experience the wonders of the Great Wall stargazing, but also learn about the Great Wall under the guidance of professional teachers.
Lastly, the local administration office takes into account the dietary needs of tourists, and the Great Wall Hotel and Yisong Lou Restaurant in the scenic area also provide beer and snack food for light dinner, so that tourists can relax and eat after watching the sunset and enjoying the night view of the Great Wall.
