NDO - Located about 80km north of Beijing, the Huanghuacheng Great Wall is a national 4A-level tourist area famous for its beautiful natural scenery. Because there are three sections of the Great Wall in low-lying areas submerged in water to act as a dike to prevent water from flowing inside, it is called the Water Great Wall.

Construction of the Huanghuacheng Great Wall began in 1404 and was completed in 1592.

The Great Wall of Huanghua City winds along the mountainside surrounding Haoming Lake, becoming the gateway to protect the north of the ancient capital.

The Huanghuacheng Great Wall is 12.4km long, accounting for about 20% of the total length of the Great Wall in the Huairou area.

The Great Wall of Huanghua was built in a dangerous position on a high mountain, so many sections of the wall are rugged and steep, a challenge for those who like to climb.

The structure of the Great Wall of Huanghuacheng was mainly built of slate, very solid, known as "copper wall and iron wall", and to this day still retains its original appearance when it was first built.

Hao Minh Lake is formed by natural streams flowing down from the mountains, the lake surface area is 18.4ha, the average depth is 10m, the deepest point is up to 30m. The lake water quality meets national level I standards, can be used as a source of drinking water.

Because the terrain is lower than the lake level, there are sections of the wall submerged under the water, creating a unique scene of "the wall submerged in water, the water embracing the wall".

Coming to the Great Wall of Huanghuacheng, visitors can both climb the Great Wall and take a boat ride on the lake to experience the scenery of green mountains and blue water.

In addition, the Hoang Hoa Thanh Great Wall tourist area also has many entertainment spots such as kayaking, fishing..., an ideal destination for families with children on weekends or holidays.
