The source pairs a UNESCO-listed Ming dynasty wall section with modern Olympic venue nightscapes.
Tour the renowned Badaling Great Wall, ascending to the higher North Eighth Tower at 888 meters elevation to experience the sentiment that one is not a hero until reaching the Great Wall. From this vantage point, the wall follows the mountain ridges in undulating waves like a giant dragon across northern China, presenting magnificent seasonal scenery from spring wildflowers to winter snow. Badaling is the best-preserved and most representative section of the Ming Great Wall, a national 5A scenic area listed as World Heritage in 1987. Built starting in 1505 over 84 years using strategic terrain, its walls stretch 3742 meters along the ridges and it has hosted over 500 heads of state as a key symbol of Chinese cultural exchange.
The source does not provide a separate afternoon segment for this day.
View the night scenery of the Bird's Nest and Water Cube. The Bird's Nest is the only dual-Olympic main venue globally, illuminated in warm gold and Chinese red to outline its steel structure with grandeur and softness. The Water Cube is the world's largest membrane-structure building, lit primarily in dreamy blue with shifting colors resembling a liquid crystal palace.
