Yesterday was a great last day of the trip. When else can you say you walked on the Great Wall of China at 10 am and landed in San Francisco at 12:50 pm the same day?
Kevin and I had a tour guide pick us up at our transit hotel at 8 am Tuesday to take us to the Great Wall. We went to the Mutianyu section where we took a cable car to the top of the mountain and to the Great wall. There is also a chair lift kind of setup where you go to another part of the wall and then ride a toboggan back down but the cable car went higher and we decided to do that. We then had 2 hours to walk the wall. I'll write another post on Tony and the tour,
The section we went to was ok to walk for most people at the beginning but toward the top it got really steep and going up wasn't a problem but going down with the narrow steps you had to be very careful.
I've been to 2 sections of the wall, both were great. The cable car or chair lift added a little something extra.
