The Badaling Great Wall scenic area unveiled four themed tours for the upcoming Spring Festival on Friday.
They cover night tours on the Great Wall in Yanqing district, northwestern Beijing, with gourmet food, creative cultural gifts, professional photography service, local intangible cultural heritage experiences prepared, as well as a stage show offering time travel back to ancient stories behind the development of the wall.
Right outside the stage show facility, a fair highlighting historical elements will be arranged to spice up travel experience in the area.
The ice and snow festival tour will be staged mainly at the Yeyahu National Wetland Park in Yanqing, where more than 10 winter fun activities will be ready, including snowmobiles. Hotpot in tents and tea brewing by the fire will be arranged for visitors to enjoy warmth and delicious food.

Additionally, visitors can participate in making intangible cultural heritage reed paintings, and join bird-watching sessions led by professional instructors at the park.
The last tour will focus on Yanqing's Yongning ancient town, where a modern art exhibition on pink yarn elements will enable visitors to appreciate artworks while engaging in the artistic creation by wrapping art pieces and everyday items with pink yarn.
Rong Xinfeng, chairman of the Badaling Culture and Tourism Group, says efforts will be made to focus on the four special Spring Festival tours, with customized services.
"Our goal is to comprehensively enhance the brand image and market competitiveness of Yanqing's winter tourism, striving to make Yanqing a must-visit destination for both domestic and international tourists during Spring Festival," Rong says.
