We are coming to Beijing in September. My wife is partially disabled. She can manage 2-3 dozen steps but can only walk about 400-500 yards. Where would be the best place to visit the Wall? I am 70 and can push her in her wheelchair a long way on the level and on a slight incline but not a steep one nor an unmade path.

Dear Ian Hooker,

Thanks for contacting Top China Travel! 

If you have difficulty moving around due to your physical disability or have visual or hearing problems, you still can have a sound and exciting travel experience with careful planning, sound arrangements and detailed preparation. Both Badaling Great Wall and Mutianyu Great Wall are wheelchair-friendly. Special flat lanes are built for wheelchair users to get to the certain area of the Great Wall. But it is more recommended to visit Badaling instead of Mutianyu, as Badaling offer more no-barrier facilities. Please kindly find some more details at Access to Great Wall for Seniors or Disabled in a Wheelchair 

But as there are many steps on the wall, your wife can not get to the top of the wall. She can only get to the lower floor on the wall by elevator or cable car, then see the wall from there.

Are you planning a trip to China? Would you like us to offer you a proposal with the cost for your consideration?

1) Which places are you going to visit?
2) How many people will travel together?
3) When are you planning to enjoy your tour in China? And how many days are you planning to enjoy your tour in China
4) What kind of hotel would you prefer to stay in? 5 star for deluxe hotel? 4 star for first-class comfortable hotel or 3 star for budget hotel?
