The Jiankou section of the Great Wall is undoubtedly the most precipitous part of the world wonder in Beijing.
While in the past, some people have died while trying to climb the wild parts of the Wall here, places like Badaling and Mutianyu in the outskirts of the Chinese capital are suitable for all tourists due to the availability of cable cars and the rebuilt gentle slopes.
But located in Huairou district of Beijing, Jiankou's scenic views have made it a popular spot for photographers and hikers. One has to use both hands and feet to climb the rough cliffs here.
