\ud83d\uddd3\ufe0f Best time to visit: The best months to visit are between March-May and September-November when the weather is milder and the crowds are smaller. Avoid the summer months if you can; it gets HOT! We visited in September, and the weather was perfect, it was a bit chilly, but around midday, it warmed up \u2600\ufe0f<\/p>\n
\ud83c\udf9f\ufe0f Cost: The entrance fee to the Mutianyu section is \u00a540 (about \u00a35). The cable car or chairlift will cost you an extra \u00a5140 (\u00a315) for a return trip. If you purchase the return ticket, you can enjoy the toboggan ride down<\/p>\n
\ud83d\udea0 Cable car vs. Chairlift: The cable car is enclosed, making it perfect if you\u2019re visiting during colder months or want a more relaxed ride. The cable car opens at 8.30 AM. The chairlift, on the other hand, is open and offers stunning panoramic views on the way up. If you want to beat the crowds, we recommend the chairlift as it opens at 7.30 AM. We were the first up to the wall, and it was amazing!!<\/p>\n
\ud83d\udcf8 Useful tip: Arrive early! The earlier you get there, the more time you\u2019ll have to explore and enjoy the incredible views without crowds. We took the chairlift up at 7.30 AM and had the most amazing time as no one was around until 10 AM.<\/p>\n
\ud83c\udfde\ufe0f Pack some water and wear comfy shoes. You\u2019ll definitely be doing a lot of walking. Avoid buying coffee or drinks up to the wall as they are expensive. We stopped for a coffee and regretted that we paid \u00a35 for it \ud83d\ude48<\/p>\n
