Wild Wall Beijing


We had a great time climbing on the "wild" Great Wall of China on Sunday. We took a hike through some brush up to a section of the Great Wall that is not repaired or technically open to the public. It was an amazing, off-the-beaten-path experience and we're thankful that our gracious hosts helped us get there! We finished off with a lovely bowl of noodles at a restaurant called The Schoolhouse. Yum!

That wall is an amazing piece of engineering! A testament to human endeavor... Also on my list of things to see. :-)

The Wall looks amazing and it was great that you got to see a "non-touristy part". Have a safe trip home and I will talk with you on the weekend. Love, Barbara
