Now how convenient is it to go to the Badaling Great Wall from downtown Beijing?

Xizhimen is most convenient to take a small train, except for self-driving.

Dongsi takes Metro Line 6 → Metro Line 8 → Suburban Railway S205, or 113 to 919, about three hours away.

You can take a bus to the Badaling Great Wall, but I personally don’t recommend it. It’s not very convenient if you have old people or children. If your family’s conditions are good, you can charter a bus. In this way, you can go to the Badaling Great Wall or other scenic spots in one day. The economical and convenient transportation is directly connected by Duyou bus car

The Duyou bus is very convenient. It departs from Dongsi Subway Station. There are several buses every day. It takes about an hour to arrive. If you have taken it before, you can choose it.

Last winter, our family took the "Duyou Bus" direct train to the Badaling Great Wall. We booked it on the Duyou Bus official account. The whole journey was easy and enjoyable, and we didn't need to prepare any equipment. The Badaling Scenic Spot is a national 5A-level scenic spot, and the tourist facilities are very complete. "Duyou Bus" has an exclusive rest area in Badaling Scenic Area, providing a series of very convenient services.
