1.no problem taking a airport shuttle bus to downtown at 8pm, if you'll take a taxi, make sure with the driver what's the price.
2.I have no experience on this one
3.national day celebration activities usually held on Tiananmen square, but during the whole 7 days, Beijing will be crowded with local people and tourists.
4.the most famous section is badaling, also the most crowded. less famous but also beautiful one is Mutianyu.If you want to prearrange guide or car, chech for this website, they may have such services.

Get to Xuanwumen, Dongsishitiao, Dongzhimen and Gongzhufen stops in the city center to take Tourist Bus Line 6 (6:30am-8:30am) to Mutianyu Greatwall direct. Or get to Xizhimen Railway Station to catch special tourist train to Beizhao Station and take a taxi to the great wall after getting off the train. The Line 6 only runs in weekends and statutory holidays.
