The Great Wall


Whale and Tan's Beijing tour has been a great great experience. We spent about $10AU each yesterday to visit all those landmarks, and today was the peak of our tour - The Great Wall of China!


Our tour (it was a mandarn guide) cost us $40 AU in total for the day including lunch and all entry fees into tourist spots.


We visited:


1. Ming Tombs


2. The Great Wall of China - Badaling Section


Both were great experiences. Here's some pics of the Great Wall:




Here's how we got up half of the mountain to get to the great wall:


Very sophisticated huh...
