Following over 3 years of renovation and upgrade, the Great Wall Museum of China, located at the foot of Bejing’s Badaling Great Wall, kicked off its trial opening to the public on October 24. This national cultural home to the heritage of Chinese civilization over thousands years welcomes guests from across the globe with a fresh appearance.

The revamped Great Wall Museum of China covers 16,000 square meters. Centered on the history, culture and spirit of the Great Wall, its permanent exhibition showcases over 700 sets of relics, systematically illustrating why the Great Wall stands as a key symbol of Chinese civilization and explaining its role in the formation of the Chinese national community.

The museum is open free of charge during the trail operation. No reservation is required, and visitor flow control will be in place. The daily capacity is limited to 4,000 visitors and admission will be suspended. Visitors may enter the museum with valid identity documents.
