The Great wall

The Great Wall of China was built mainly to protect the Chinese Empire from the Mongolians and other invaders.
Believe it or not! The Great Wall can be seen from space with the naked eye.

We take taxi to Jinshanling section, trek on the most beautiful section of the Great Wall to Simatai section.
The distance is around 12 kms, covering 27 watchtowers over old brick-made steps.
There are sections of renovated and original wall. (Duration approximately 4-5 hours)
