The 30-square-kilometre beautiful Naigu area is known as a natural museum of karst landforms.

It lies to the north of Beijing City. Tourists can visit it all year round， but the best time is April， May， September， and October. Last week， I visited Mutianyu Great Wall with my parents. At first， I just thought it was not as busy as Badaling Great Wall. I thought it would not be much fun. But in fact， I really enjoyed myself there！ The first interesting part was taking a chairlift（吊椅） up to the wall. Of course， you can also take the cable car（缆车）. It makes it easier for children and old people to climb the wall. The next interesting part was walking along the wall. When you’re on the wall， you’ll be surprised at the beautiful sights. But the most interesting part of the trip was the ride. You can take a slide（滑梯） down from the wall. It takes several minutes to slide all the way down. That’s why more and more people like to visit Mutianyu Great Wall. The secret of an enjoyable visit is to visit the wall early. Most people visit the wall on a day trip by coach（长途汽车） from the city of Beijing. If you arrive before the first coaches， you may be able to enjoy the sights of the wall by yourself. It’s really wonderful. Anyway， you can’t miss Mutianyu Great Wall when you stay in Beijing. 1. When is the best time to visit Mutianyu Great Wall？ 2.
