Being so close to the city it would be criminal not to go and visit one of man&#8217;s most astonishingly massive creations! <\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t get ripped off by a tour operator in Beijing. <em>Get there yourself<\/em>!<\/p>\n<p>We had a bit of a nightmare trying to organise a day out to the Great Wall. We wanted to go to a quieter section of the wall called <strong>Mutainyu<\/strong>, away from the hordes where we could hopefully spend some time on the wall in peace! We&#8217;ve written about how we eventually got the public bus, and stuck our middle finger up at the tour operators! <\/p>\n<h3>Here goes!<\/h3>\n<p>Having booked with a tour agency on the same road as our hostel for the sum of 150RMB (without lunch, and haggled down). We would soon learn this was a massive mistake. <\/p>\n<p>The following morning we were driven to a coach park with an exceptional grumpy tour guide, then told we had to join another tour group. We were met by another guide who informed us that we were now driving to the <strong>Balatong<\/strong> section of the wall (which I knew would be very crowded and touristy), <em>for a one hour visit<\/em>, then visit a Jade factory and various tea houses on the way back&#8230;She also went on to inform us that a 100RMB tip was compulsory for herself and the driver! Suffice to say, after nearly causing an international incident, we made our way back to the tour office and demanded our money back.<\/p>\n<div class=\"woo-sc-box  normal   \"><em><strong>After being stung like this, we decided to organise our trip and transport to Mutainyu ourselves, adding to the overall sense of adventure!<\/strong><\/em><\/div>\n<p>A quick Google search came up with <a href=\"http:\/\/vagabond3.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Vagabond 3&#8217;s<\/a> very informative first hand account of their bus journey from Beijing to Mutainyu on bus number 936. His description is spot-on, and without it we would not have found our way there. (Read his comprehensive guide <a href=\"http:\/\/vagabond3.com\/dont-panic-how-to-do-the-great-wall-of-china-mutianyu-by-bus\/\" target=\"_blank\">here<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<p>We were inspired to write our own guide of our experiences and build upon Vagabond&#8217;s original post.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin:10px;border:1px solid #ccc; padding:15px; background-color:#ceffd6\">\n<h3>How to catch the bus to the Mutainyu Great Wall!<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Get to the &#8216;Dong Zhi Men&#8217; metro station.<\/strong> We had written down instructions from the Vagabond 3 site as the description sounded quite complex. I highly recommend you ask someone to write &#8216;Mutainyu Great Wall&#8217; in Mandarin. We were lucky in that someone in our hostel did this for us, and it was a life saver. <\/li>\n<li>There are plenty of sign posts and bus numbers in and around the station. We pointed to our pre-written <strong>&#8216;936&#8217;<\/strong>, and after much pointing and gesturing we exited the metro station and headed east <a href=\"https:\/\/aminearlythereyet.com\/8-essential-items-you-need-to-take-travelling\/\" title=\"8 Essential Items You Need To Take Travelling\">(get a compass!)<\/a> on the main road, the <strong>Dong Zhi Men Outer Byway<\/strong>, and headed up the road until we hit a left. <\/li>\n<li>We had to walk a good 400 metres from the main road, following others hoping that they were also heading the same way. Seeing loads of coaches in the distance, I quietly hoped we had hit the jackpot. Rounding the corner, we saw a big 936 sign and 2 other westerners and sighed a sigh of relief! <\/li>\n<li>There were two <strong>936<\/strong> bays, adding to the confusion. We opted for the queue with the largest body of people and crossed our fingers!<\/li>\n<li>Confusingly, two 936 buses came and went with no commotion, then at 08:30am one stopped, we all piled on, flashing our pre-written mandarin for final confirmation.\n<\/li>\n<li><strong>You pay on the bus.<\/strong> Don&#8217;t believe what anyone else says! We paid 16RMB each way (6\/5\/11), and the journey took about 2 hours.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aminearlythereyet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/beijing-mutainyu-great-wall_sign-300x210.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"210\" class=\"alignleft size-medium wp-image-1983\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We later found that there are only two buses in the morning to Mutainyu, 07:00 and 08:30. So arrive in good time!<\/p>\n<p>The Vagabond guide warns that the stop you need to get off at is <em>not<\/em> the last on the bus route, Hong Luo Si, as advertised at the actual bus stop and on the bus itself. <\/p>\n<p>You will arrive at what appears to be the last stop. The driver will disembark along with a large section of people from the bus. There are hawkers and street sellers everywhere, adding to the confusion and doubt flowing through my mind as I thought we <em>must<\/em> be Mutainyu. <\/p>\n<p>We did what the Vagabond guide said not to do: Look around in panic for signs of a &#8216;Great Wall&#8217; somewhere in the distance. To top it, when the new driver started up the bus, he drove back the way we&#8217;d came! Luckily we hit a sharp right and started ascending upwards on the last leg of the journey that took 15 minutes or so. <\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll know when you get to the top as coaches and cars are parked up and there&#8217;s a massive <em>Great Wall Mutainyu!<\/em> sign.<\/p>\n<p>We headed upward towards the ticket office, choosing the &#8216;ski lift&#8217; option to get up to the wall in style, as well as paying for the <strong>Toboggan ride<\/strong> back down the mountain \u2013 something I was highly looking forward to! I paid 110RMB and Eloise 90RMB with a UK &#8216;Student&#8217; card. (6\/5\/11)<\/p>\n<p>The wall was truly excellent, and the sun shone on us all day. If we had gone the previous day we would have got drenched. I couldn&#8217;t believe the severity of the steps!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aminearlythereyet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/beijing-mutainyu-great-wall_eloise-on-wall.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"366\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1980\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"photoinfo\">Undeveloped part of the Mutainyu section<\/div>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aminearlythereyet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/beijing-mutainyu-great-wall_jump-here.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"366\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1981\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"photoinfo\">When it&#8217;s quiet, run!<\/div>\n<p>Arriving at the highest point on the Mutainyu walk, we saw a slightly worn footpath out of one of the turret windows looking north. <\/p>\n<p><strong><em>When no one was looking we made a run for it, jumping down through the windowless turret and towards another junction in the fortification on the wall.<\/em><\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>This section was totally undeveloped and was really exciting to walk down, but a bit dangerous in parts!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/aminearlythereyet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/02\/beijing-mutainyu-great-wall_lunch-spot.jpg\" alt=\"\" title=\"\" width=\"650\" height=\"373\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1982\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"photoinfo\">Taken from the end point, you can see where we walked and had lunch!<\/div>\n<p>We walked for a kilometre or so and stopped for our packed lunch in an ancient corner of the wall with commanding views of the surrounding mountains in all directions \u2013 totally undisturbed and isolated.

You can control the speed in which you hurtle down the 1500m(!) stainless steel slide simply by yanking back on the lever which applies a brake, or pushing fully forward to achieve break-neck speed! Attendants tactically located at near-death bends will shout commands of <em>&#8220;Brake!&#8221;<\/em>, but I&#8217;m sure most of you, like me, will ignore them!<\/p>\n<h3>Key Tips on how to get the Bus!<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Ask for <strong>&#8216;Mutianyu&#8217;<\/strong> to be written down for you. Most Chinese people are eager to help clueless westerners<\/li>\n<li>Write down <strong>&#8216;936&#8217;<\/strong> on the same piece of paper. Helpful attendants will point you in the right direction for where the bus departs <strong>Dong Zhi Men<\/strong> station<\/li>\n<li><strong>Be patient when you arrive at the last stop shown on the bus! &#8211; Hong Luo Si<\/strong>. The bus carries on for 15 more minutes to Mutainyu<\/li>\n<li>If you have photo ID of any sort, try and get a Student discount on your tickets. I have been successful several times showing my UK drivers licence in China as Student ID!<\/li>\n<li><strong>Arrive Early!<\/strong> With only two buses in the morning to Mutainyu, 07:00 and 08:30, late risers like myself have a small window of opportunity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In my opinion it&#8217;s definitely worth the effort of making your own way to the Great Wall and not arranging a trip with a tour company. We heard many subsequent stories of people getting conned on their trips, with very little time on the wall, and hours spent in Jade factories and tea houses!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What trip to Beijing would be complete without a day trip out to the Great Wall?
