Have Ever Visit Badachu Park in Beijing

As a national AAAA Tourist Area, Badachu Park is located in the south foothills of well-known Beijing Xishan (Western Hills) Scenic Area. As one of the top-priority municipal protected cultural relic sites in Beijing since the founding of the P.R.China, Badachu Park has been a garden-based Buddhist temple, which is endowed with time-honored history, everlasting reputation and pleasant natural landscape. Badachu Park is surrounded by Cuiwei Hill (the remaining chain of

Western Hills), Pingpo Hill and Lushi Hill. These three hills are shaped like a chair. Eight ancient temples spread over these three hills, forming a famous natural sight of Twelve Landscapes. Badachu Park is world-renowned due to the tooth relic (the sacred sharira of Sakyamuni Buddha) preserved in two Lingguang Temples. The oldest temple in these eight ancient temples is Bachu Zhengguo Temple, its construction lasting from the late Sui Dynasty to the Early Tang Dynasty. Much further construction lasted through the Song, Yuan, Ming and Qing dynasties. The largest temple is Xiangjie Temple-a temporary imperial palace for Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong on their brief stays. Although Badachu Park was named after these eight ancient temples, some stone inscriptions engraved on the cliffs can date back to as early as the Ming Dynasty, have become the ninth attraction site in Badachu Park since their discovery in 2000. A large number of stone inscription hobbyists and Buddhists have come in a continuous stream to visit.

According to the mountain features, four mountain climbing routes have been designed in Badachu Park. Climbing fans can select a favorite route. Every spring, Badachu Chinese Garden & Tea Culture Festival is held in April and the Badachu Mounting-climbing Fair is held on the Chongyang Festival. A Chinese calendar festival is also staged in October. Without exception, all the activities attract a large number of domestic and foreign tourists.

The JianKou Great Wall in Beijing

The JianKou Great Wall is regarded by some people as the most picturesque section of the Great Wall and is a good example of the 'Wild Great Wall'. The main section of the JianKou Great Wall is built along a mountain ridge with steep cliffs on each side. Therefore, climbing the wall here needs a certain level of fitness and great care. It is located in the mountain ridge of Xizhazi Village, Huairou County in Beijing.

The Jiankou Great Wall was an important section of the wall in the Ming Dynasty (1368 - 1644). Owing to the need for renovation, the wall is regarded as one of the most dangerous sections of the Ming wall. It connects to the Mutianyu Great Wall in the east and joins the Huanghuacheng Great Wall in the west. From east to north, the wall zigzags 9.3 miles from 'The Ox Horn Edge Wall' to 'The Nine-Eye Tower' via 'The Beijing Knot'. Compared with the Mutianyu Great Wall, the mountain is higher and steeper, while compared with the Simatai Great Wall, it is more winding and varied. It was built from local material - dolomite. The large pieces of white rock make the wall striking to the eye at a distance.
There are many famous sections of the Jiankou Great Wall, such as 'The Nine-Eye Tower', an important command post during the ancient wars. It has three layers, and there are nine holes which look like nine eyes on each side. 'The Beijing Knot' is the meeting point for three walls coming from different directions. 'The Sky Stair', is a precipitous stair whose angle of elevation is 70 to 80 degrees. It leads to 'The Eagle Flies Facing Upward', a watch tower built on the lofty peaks. It is so dangerous that even eagles have to fly facing upward to reach the top. 'Zhengbei Tower' is the right place to appreciate the beauty of sunrise and sunset.
Some sections of the wall are seriously damaged, so you must watch your step. It is better to go in a group. The local dish of rainbow trout is very famous. Pheasant dish is also a good choice. Near the wall, the 'Zhao's Hostel' is a nice place to spend the night.
