The Huanghuacheng (Lakeside) section of the Great Wall derives its name from the nearby man-made reservoir lakes. Unlike the main tourist sections of the Great Wall at Mutianyu and Badaling, the Lakeside Great Wall draws a far smaller number of tourists. The section features appealing sights including submerged parts of the Great Wall under the lake water and a sweeping view after a steep hike to a high guard tower.
