large-scale underground engineering construction is a technically difficult project worldwide. the builders of the badaling great wall station faced many challenges during the excavation process, such as abundant groundwater resources, complex geological structures, and the protection of the great wall above ground.
in order to cope with the various difficulties in underground station construction, the builders have carried out a series of engineering and technological innovations. major breakthroughs have been made in waterproofing technology to ensure that the station remains dry in an environment rich in groundwater. advanced technology has been used in earthquake-resistant design to ensure the safety of the station in areas with frequent geological activities. at the same time, the station fully considers the integration with the underground environment during construction, and cleverly uses natural light and ventilation systems to create a comfortable waiting and riding environment. every link in the construction of badaling great wall station demonstrates china's world-leading level in the field of railway construction.
as a cultural treasure of china, badaling great wall attracts a large number of tourists every year. the construction of badaling great wall station will allow more people to easily reach the foot of the great wall and experience the majestic charm of the ancient great wall.
