The  Plan of Beijing Municipality for Conservation & Development of The  Great Wall Cultural Belt (2018-2035) was recently released.

The  Beijing Great Wall Cultural Belt roughly accounts for 30 percent of  Beijing's total urban area. The belt with a total area of 4,929.29  square kilometers is divided into the core and the radiating areas.

According  to the plan, by 2035, Beijing is expected to ensure that the Great Wall  and surrounding environments are free from danger. It will establish a  mechanism for the preventive protection of heritage through emergency  rescue and daily maintenance, which in the long run will aid in this  world-renowned structure’s preservation.
