The Great Wall

Today we had our first taste of the Great Wall

We hiked from Jinshanling to Simatai

Some of the Simatai wall is closed for the next 2 years for renovation work

So we could only walk 22 towers and not the usual 30

When we woke I was so upset to see it was raining heavy but luckily for us it did not spoil the walk, just some of the views

It was a long day over 6 hours in a mini bus for 3 hours walking

But the wall is amazing


Tomorrow we have a very early start as we are walking with the Beijing hikers , it will be a very challenging walk for us šŸ™‚

    Lovely wall and just as I had imagined it to be. I hear it does rain a lot in China, or it can do. I know you will have a good time, no matter what the weather. Continue to enjoy. x
