Jinshanling Great Wall Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Apr)
Photographer’s Paradise (Jinshanling)
This part of the Great Wall is known as a photographer’s paradise. It is very quiet and the surrounding scenery is spectacular. Located in Hebei Provence, it is about 2.5 hours from Beijing and only partially restored. Jinshanling is one of the best preserved parts of the wall and is a great hike up. It is open from 8am to 5pm and wonderful all year round.
spring - for the blossoms
summer - for the greenery
autumn - for the leaves
winter - for the snow
It is about 10km long but only 5-6km are open to the public.
I would suggest getting a private driver who will wait for you as it may prove difficult to call a cab willing to take you all the way into Beijing. A private driver is cost-effective if you’re traveling as a group.

The Great Wall of China is one of the Seven Wonders of the World, and for good reason! Our trip to the Jinshanling section of the wall was the most surreal experience of 2019. The wall is so historically significant and I could feel the history with every step! Consider adding the Great Wall of China to your 2020 travel goals 😁

Yesterday was the second day of the Qingming Festival mini-holiday, coinciding with the opening of the 12th Jinshanling Great Wall Apricot Flower Festival. In this vibrant season, when all things are flourishing, more than 20,000 tourists flocked to the Jinshanling Great Wall to partake in a springtime floral event. They came to see the hills blanketed with apricot blossoms, to witness the serpentine Great Wall, to gaze upon the ethereal fragrance of flowers mingling with the fairyland of the Wall, and to appreciate the full expression of Chinese aesthetics.
Standing atop the Great Wall, one can look out over the overlapping peaks and the winding walls, like a giant dragon traversing through the mists of history, narrating the vicissitudes of a thousand years.
You make us feel the profound depth and greatness of history, and also make us cherish the peace and tranquility of the present even more. Every visit here stirs my emotions, as if I become one with this ancient land.
The Jinshanling Great Wall is an eternal ode, and an immortal epic. It is not just a barrier, but a legend. It has witnessed the bloody battles of countless brave soldiers, as well as the indomitable spirit of the Chinese nation.
Touching these stone bricks, the pulse of history throbs, and my soul is shaken. Walking on the Great Wall, each stone brick underfoot bears the heavy weight of history. They have withstood the test of wind, frost, rain, and snow, yet remain as solid as ever, telling of the wisdom and resilience of the ancients.

Jinshanling Great Wall | Apricot Blossom Festival | The quintessence of Chinese aesthetics in full display
Spring🍀 has an appointment, and the flowers🌸 are never missed. The 12th Jinshanling Great Wall Apricot Blossom Festival kicked off yesterday, with more than 20,000 tourists flocking to the Jinshanling Great Wall to join the spring flower date💃.
⏳This Apricot Blossom Festival will last until April 21st.

Participating in these events, you can feel the historical accumulation of the century-old Great Wall up close, experience the trends and fashion of Luanping, and appreciate the 'unique beauty of Jinshan' as the scenery changes with each step.
The sound of the zither under the Great Wall is lingering, playing out the splendor of today's flowers. Starting from Qi Jiguang Square, colorful dragons wind and spiral, lions dance and leap, and the ancient charm of the Great Wall and the classical aesthetics of the opera complement each other. Performances of intangible cultural heritage such as stilts, Er Gui wrestling, Ba Wang whip, and Shi Fan music take turns on stage, making the intangible cultural heritage under the Great Wall the latest popular check-in spot.
At the opening ceremony, a series of national style theme performances were staged in turns, with song and dance performances, Hanfu catwalks, and various activities being splendid, enjoying the beauty of spring and the feast of art and literature.
At sunrise over Jinshan, with the first glimpse of the rosy clouds, the apricot blossoms on the mountains are like a light mist, covering the mountaintops and enveloping layers of ethereal fairyland, interpreting the beauty of Chinese aesthetics to the fullest.

After a year, I came to the Great Wall of Jinshanling again. I climbed the Great Wall with me and my girlfriend, and there were cute little squirrels. Last night, I lived in the courtyard full of quaint charm at the foot of the Great Wall. The Jinshanling Great Wall Yueyuan Hotel is from the world's top hotel group Banyan Tree Group. Our small courtyard is next door to the entrance of the scenic spot. When we open the door in the morning, we can say good morning to the majestic Great Wall.
