City to renovate Great Wall section

Beijing will continue to finance the renovation of a section of the Great Wall with original bricks. The Jiankou section in Huairou district is one of the city’s most dangerous and wild parts of the wall. Guo Dapeng with the Huairou cultural commission said the work will start in May. A 1,000-meter section has already been renovated, he said, adding that the commission plans to finish the 7.7-km section by 2022 at a cost of 155 million yuan ($23.8 million).
