Who told you the Great Wall only perches on sweeping mountainsides and barren plains? We suggest you visit the "water great wall" at Huanghuacheng,where water surrounds and covers lengths of the grand structure.
Huanghuacheng Lakeside Great Wall Reserve is located in Jiuduhe town in Huairou district. Sections of the wall disappear into clear water then stretch back up the steep mountain, sparking magical thoughts of an underwater world.

Driving time: approximately two hours

Tips: wear water-proof, slip-proof shoes and bring a warm coat if you stay overnight in mountain areas.
