The architecture of the Mutianyu Great Wall has a unique style, with three watch towers standing in parallel on the Zhengguan Terrace, which is rarely seen on the Great Wall.

Eagle Flying Belly Up is the one of the best features of the Mutianyu Great Wall. The Great Wall is built on the cliff spikes like the eagle's beak inverted, which is lofty and craggy. With the high mountains and fierce winds, eagles flying here will be blown upside down, showing the perilous nature of the Great Wall.
