Description -
The Great Wall at the Green Mountain Pass, suburb of Tangshan (4 hours' drive) is still unknown to most tourists, both locals and foreigners alike.
The village nestled at the foot of the Great Wall and the Mountain is composed of courtyards with rock-piled walls. You will stay overnight in the authentic courtyard houses in the castle-like village. The room is clean and with standard bathroom.
The mountains will be covered with green and yellow blossom of the peach, pear and chestnut trees. The hue changes three times from the bottom up to the top of the mountains.
Tangshan is known as the capital of ceramics in North China and famous for the biggest earthquake in China in terms of casualty (in 1976).
Tangshan is also known for high quality, white, semi-transparent and thin bone china of dinnerwares, coffee and tea sets. Many hotels and high-class restaurants and coffee shops of Beijing use their products.
