Introduction

The ancient section of the Great Wall at Badaling, also known as the remnants of the Great Wall, is located 5 kilometers southwest of the Badaling Great Wall Scenic Area and served as an important stronghold of defense in the region. Despite its incomplete state, the remnants still exude a powerful cultural charm and are complimented by the surrounding natural beauty, drawing numerous tourists to visit. In fact, it serves as a testament to history, with two archaeological sites - a stone quarry used during the construction of the wall and a brick kiln - providing important clues to understanding the materials used in its construction. In the spring, many photography enthusiasts come to capture the blooming apricot blossoms and experience the ancient beauty of the Great Wall. It feels as if you have traveled through time to witness the epic of history.
