The Badaling Ancient Great Wall Natural Scenic Area is located in Badaling Town, Yanqing District, 10 kilometers southwest of the Badaling Great Wall Scenic Area. It is the second scenic area of the Badaling Great Wall. There are four beacon towers and a gap. Starting from the beacon tower at the gap, the two sections of the wall are in a "V" shape to the southwest and northwest, extending upward along the mountain, about 2,000 meters long. Although the wall is incomplete, its magnificent scale in the past can still be seen. "Yesterday and today in this mountain, the helmet tassels on the ancient Great Wall are red. The battlefields are no longer seen, and nature still smiles at the east wind." The ancient Great Wall is the western gate of the Badaling Great Wall defense. Not only does it have the beauty of the incompleteness of the ancient Great Wall, its natural landscape environment is equally charming. In spring, the scenic area is full of apricot flowers like butterflies and bees flying in the sea; in summer, the mountains are covered with lilac, and the fragrance is overwhelming; in autumn, the red leaves are more colorful, shining on the ancient city; in winter, it is covered with silver and the scenery is magnificent. Although there is no stream in the valley, the fragrance of flowers is everywhere, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. The breeze blows gently by your ears. The luxuriant trees and shrubs are lush and green, and the vitex is blooming with purple flowers. The unique fragrance is refreshing and refreshing. In 2002, the scenic spot was awarded the Beijing Patriotic Education Base, Yanqing District Safe Tourism Scenic Spot, and Yanqing District Minors' Ideological and Moral Education Base. In 2011, it was rated as a national AAA-level scenic spot. The ancient Great Wall is like an unborn beauty and an unpolished jade, waiting for your visit and appreciation.

Interpretation of the Badaling Ancient Great Wall from the perspective of Eastern philosophy From the perspective of Eastern philosophy, the Badaling Ancient Great Wall is not just a defensive fortification, it is more like a winding dragon, entrenched between the mountains, symbolizing the tenacity and indomitable spirit of ancient Chinese culture. In Taoist philosophy, the integration of the Great Wall and the natural environment embodies the concept of "Tao follows nature". The winding and undulating Great Wall echoes the mountains, showing the wisdom of harmonious coexistence between man and nature. In Confucianism, the construction of the Great Wall embodies the concept of "benevolent government". It protects the people from foreign enemies and is a manifestation of national governance and social responsibility. At the same time, the Great Wall also symbolizes the "golden mean". It finds a balance between defense and openness, which not only protects the security of the country, but also promotes cultural exchanges. Interpretation of the Badaling Ancient Great Wall from the perspective of Western philosophy From the perspective of Western philosophy, the Badaling Ancient Great Wall is more interpreted as a symbol of human will and creativity. In ancient Greek philosophy, the construction of the Great Wall reflects the human pursuit of order and rationality. It is a grand project that demonstrates the ability of mankind to overcome natural obstacles and achieve goals. In Enlightenment philosophy, the Great Wall can be seen as a symbol of the progress of human civilization. It represents the process of human society moving from barbarism to civilization and from dispersion to unity. At the same time, from the perspective of existentialism, the Great Wall also reflects human exploration of freedom and existence. It is both a restriction and a challenge, inspiring human desire for freedom and exploration of the unknown. Whether it is Eastern philosophy or Western philosophy, the Badaling Ancient Great Wall carries profound cultural significance and philosophical thinking. It is not only a witness to history, but also a symbol of human wisdom and spirit.
