Description

Begin your adventure with a private transfer from your hotel to Badaling Airport. Board a helicopter and take off for a breathtaking aerial tour of the Great Wall. As you soar above the ancient blue brick walls and scattered beacon towers, witness the Great Wall winding like a giant dragon among the towering mountains. Choose between a short-distance route to admire the core scenery of the Great Wall or a long-distance route to enjoy the magnificent mountains and rivers. After the flight, take photos with the helicopter to capture an exclusive high-altitude memory. Next, hike the Badaling Great Wall to personally touch the historical texture of the thousand-year-old pass. Choose from two tour routes: the North Great Wall is steep, passing by the classic Hero Slope, and you can overlook the rolling mountains from the top of the North Eighth Tower, feeling the heroism of 'He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true man', suitable for tourists who like hiking challenges; the South Great Wall is gentle and quiet with few tourists, where you can stroll and enjoy the scenery and take photos at leisure, perfect for families, the elderly and children. In the afternoon, depart from the Badaling Great Wall by private car to the Summer Palace, known as the 'Royal Garden Museum'. Stroll through this most well-preserved imperial garden of the Qing Dynasty, walk along the Long Corridor to appreciate exquisite murals, overlook the rippling Kunming Lake and the layered Longevity Hill, and wander across the Seventeen-Arch Bridge to feel the artistic conception of Chinese garden with every step. Immerse yourself in the extreme essence of Chinese gardening art and the leisure and elegance of the Qing Dynasty royal family, and deeply experience the natural scenery and historical heritage of Beijing.
