Life advice: You always have to visit Beijing North, where the Great Wall will leave you in awe.

2. **Yunmengshan Mountain (Miyun)** *"Beijing's Mini Huangshan, a poetic landscape"* Marvel at the breathtaking views of peculiar peaks, cascading waterfalls, the ancient Great Wall, and the Miyun Reservoir. Stroll through the "520 Love Valley," take a cable car ride through the clouds and mist, and make a promise at 1314 meters above sea level, letting the mountains and rivers witness your romance. 3. **Shenglian Mountain (Fangshan)** *"Western Beijing's Mini Five Sacred Mountains, where Buddhism and Taoism coexist"* Admire the lotus-shaped peaks formed by karst landforms, with a 57-meter-tall statue of Lao Tzu standing atop the mountain. Wander along "Tianjie," watch the clouds and mist swirling around ancient temples, listen to the streams flowing through the valleys, and find a place for spiritual retreat. 4. **Fragrant Hills (Haidian)** *"Crimson leaves covering the hills, remnants of a royal garden"* In autumn, fiery red leaves blanket Incense Burner Peak; in spring, apricot blossoms resemble snow; and in summer, lush greenery provides ample shade. Ascend to a high vantage point and take in the panoramic view of Beijing, where the ancient charm of Jingyi Garden blends seamlessly with modern prosperity. 5. **Thousand Spirits Mountain (Fengtai)** *"From barren hills to a Buddhist sanctuary, a rebirth"* Once a limestone quarry, now 95% covered in greenery. Take the 1869-meter cable car ride for a bird's-eye view of the mountains, explore 18 Buddhist grottoes, and feel the harmony of nature and faith under the smiling gaze of the Maitreya Buddha. --- ### **Great Wall Copy** 1. **Badaling Great Wall (Yanqing)** *"He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true man, atop the giant dragon overlooking mountains and rivers"* The essence of the Ming Great Wall, with 4770 meters of wall winding like a dragon. In autumn, the Red Leaf Ridge is ablaze with color, while at night, the Great Wall lights up like a galaxy. The thousand-year-old beacon towers still tell the legend of "The Jade Gate Fortress." 2. **Juyongguan Pass (Changping)** *"The first and most important pass under heaven, one man can hold it against ten thousand"* Guarding the throat of the Guangou Valley, the Cloud Platform's archway is inscribed with six languages, bearing witness to the ethnic integration of the Yuan Dynasty. In spring, trains pass through a sea of flowers, while in autumn, the wall contrasts with the colorful forests, creating a moving epic. 3. **Mutianyu Great Wall (Huairou)** *"The Great Wall is magnificent, but Mutianyu stands out"* Double-sided battlements outline the horizon, with three enemy towers standing together like "Zhengguantai." Cherry blossoms in spring, maple leaves in autumn, lush greenery in summer, and snow in winter—every season is perfect for hiking and experiencing the magnificence of the "Great Wall leaping like a dragon among the mountains." 4. **Simatai Great Wall (Miyun)** *"The most magnificent section of the Great Wall, perilous and unique"* Built along the cliffs of the Yanshan Mountains, the enemy towers are a "Great Wall Museum." During a night tour, the lights of Gubei Water Town intertwine with the wall under the starry sky, as if traveling through a thousand years of beacon smoke. 5. **Jiankou Great Wall (Huairou)** *"The soul of the Wild Great Wall, primitive and desolate"* Naturally perilous and unrestored, the autumn foliage contrasts with the remnants of the wall, making it a photographer's paradise. Every step is a mark of history, every glance a vista of magnificent mountains and rivers. --- ### **Copy Blending Mountains and the Great Wall** *"Beijing's mountains and rivers are the winding spine of the Great Wall; the stories of the Great Wall are the silent watch of the mountains. Ascend to a high vantage point, watch the giant dragon coiled around the Yanshan Mountains, and listen to the pines whisper tales of a thousand years. Here lies both nature's gift and civilization's totem."* For more detailed history or travel guides, please refer to the relevant attraction introductions.
