Gubeikou Great Wall is located in Miyun County, approximately 120 kilometers from downtown Beijing. It consists of two distinct sections: the main portion, built during the Ming Dynasty (1368 AD), and an older segment dating back to the Northern Qi Dynasty (550 AD).
Among Beijing’s Great Wall sections, Gubeikou stands out as the most intact and well-preserved, retaining its original structure. Here, you can sense the weight of history—not only through its weathered walls but also through visible bullet holes and battle scars, which vividly evoke the turbulent era when war raged across this ancient frontier.
We start at 8:00 am. After about 2.5 hours of driving, we get off at the Panlongshan Scenic Spot. We then take a 20-minute walk through the valley and go straight up along the hillside to the Haowang Watchtower. After 1.5–2 hours, we arrive at the highest point of this section of the Great Wall—the 24-Hole Guard Tower. Then, we walk back to the General Tower. If you want to go farther, you will need an additional two hours beyond the General Tower before walking down to the village to have lunch in a local farmer’s house.
