Trip Highlights:
Jinshanling Great Wall, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, captivates with its rugged watchtowers, mist-kissed valleys, and snow-draped panoramas that resemble traditional ink paintings. Also, because it's far from the city center, it's the least visited section of the Great Wall. Nearby, Gubei Water Town blends northern charm with Jiangnan-style canals, where lantern-lit streets, wooden boat rides, and Peking duck feasts create a nostalgic escape. Together, they weave history, adventure, and serenity—a perfect harmony of China’s past and present.
