Question

and would like to try and fit in a visit to the Great Wall if possible. Is there an entrance close to the city? Can we take a taxi or train from the city to the wall? ThanksShaili

Anthony · Answer

As far as I know, there is a GW section in Yulin City, Shaanxi Province, named Zhenbeitai. To get to the Wall, you should take a train from Xian Main Railway Station to Yulin first. Upon arrival, hire a taxi or private car to get to the scenic area directly.
