The Great Wall of China: Hiking & Camping!
The two days we spent exploring remote portions of The Great Wall were some of the most awe-inspiring, challenging and beautiful days of our 21 days in China! We started day one on the Jiankou portion of the wall and then to the Huanghuacheng that night. We hiked in the dark and set up a tent to camp on the wall, waking up the next morning to gorgeous songs of bugs and wind passing through the mist the next morning. After packing up the camp site, we hiked the Huanghuacheng section for the rest of the day. I highly recommend visiting these gorgeous pieces of the wall and experiencing history far from tourists. It's truly unforgettable.

Simatai Great Wall tour will begin at a historic watched tower called Houchuankou Pass. Following this first pass, you will witness several unique towers throughout your tour. You will be rewarded with amazing, panoramic views of the Wall to gaze at and take pictures of during your Beijing small group tour.
Built on sharp mountain ridges, the remarkable architecture of the Great Wall will leave you feeling exhilarated and amazed at the sheer talent of the workers and engineers who built the Wall hundreds of years ago.
The hike will end at the Zhuandoukou Pass (砖垛口), which is a remarkable architectural feat consisting of three-stories with large wooden, red windows facing the north. As this would be end of your Simatai to JinShanling Great Wall Hike, make sure to take plenty of pictures!
Which Section of the GREAT WALL OF CHINA Should You Visit? | Abandoned or Restored
Which Section of the Great Wall of China should you visit? This was probably the biggest question we had before travelling to China. Mutianyu? Badaling? Jinshanling? Or how about off the beaten path at the Great Wall Fresh Homestay? - This film aims to determine once and for all, which is the best section of the Great Wall to visit.
I'm trying something a little different with this film - it's longer and more documentary style. Let me know what you think in the comments!

CAMPING ON THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA & BEIJING CITY TOUR! | Backpacking China Vlog 3
Did you know you can camp on The Great Wall of China?? Well you can with The Dragon Trip and this is exactly what we did! And not only did we camp on the great wall but we stayed on a disused part and didn’t see any other tourists!
We took a bus 2 hours from Beijing to the Great Wall of China, we had to walk nearly 1 hour up hill to the wall with our camping equipment which was hard work and it didn’t help that it was pouring with rain too!
We set up our tents next to The Great Wall of China and were then able to walk along it and watch an amazing sunset from the great wall.
Following a damp, cold and uncomfortable night we woke up to an amazing sunrise on The Great Wall of China. It was truly an amazing and huge bucket list experience.
After a 2 hour journey back to Beijing we spent the next 2 days in Beijing seeing as many of Beijing's attractions as possible including the Forbidden City, the Temple of Heaven and the Friends Cafe in Beijing!

The Great Wall of China Trip | Winter Time
I made it to the Great Wall of China once again! I am very excited to share this video with everyone! I first visited the Great Wall of China back in September 2012. It was an amazing experience! I wanted to see it again, but this time during the winter! I was lucky enough to have perfectly clear blue sunny days both times I visited the wall. I have to be honest and say that I found the The Great Wall of China to be more beautiful during the winter. All the snow along the wall really added character and beauty to it all. I have a feeling I'll be back to the Great Wall of China exploring more untouched areas of the wall in the future! ^^

MUTIANYU Great Wall in Winter! Easy Hike for Every Beijing Tourist!
MUTIANYU Great Wall of China with the Family in winter.
We visited the Great Wall of China, Mutianyu section in December 12, 2019. We are a family of nine (9), eight adults and one kid. It was -7 C when we left Beijing downtown area at 7am. The weather was between -2C to -4C when we reached Mutianyu by 9am.
We booked our MUTIANYU Great Wall adventure with Bus Tour on Klook. We got it on discount. Good for 2 People per set (we bought 5 sets for 10pax at P1,100 if I can still remember. No cable car ride included. We bought it separately from the Tour Guide at RMB 120, prices depends on the season).
Where to Book Great Wall of China Tour:
Mutianyu Great Wall 1-Day Tour ,
Pickup Time is 7am. They will tell you where the nearest pickup point.
Make sure to arrive on time. Bring water and snacks.
Travel Time from Downtown Beijing to Mutianyu is two hours.
After the tour, we had lunch in a Chinese Restaurant called Chun Ju Farm House. They served sumptuous and in huge serving. It was worth the money.
Although, there were only five of us who took the cable car and went all the way to the Great Wall Section overall, we had a great time in Beijing.

TRAVEL VLOG: Sliding down THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA | Beijing Mu Tian Yu
No doubt the best class trip I've ever been on! We head to Mu Tian Yu in Beijing to visit a section of the Great Wall of China. After a steep but easy hike, we explore a small part of the Great Wall and take a slide down!
Two hours from Beijing, Mu Tian Yu is a popular section of the Great Wall for tourists. You can take a chair lift up to the Great Wall, or challenge yourself by walking up the steep stairs. The slide down cost 100RMB and was extremely worth it!
Thanks for watching, liking, and commenting.

Beijing - Great Wall of China
It is not a trip to Beijing, China without a visit to the iconic Great Wall of China.
The Great Wall of China is the greatest symbol of ancient Chinese engineering and one of the world's most recognizable structures. Its name in Chinese means 'Long Fortress', and it was built to protect the northern edge of the Chinese empire against invasions from Mongolian nomads. Certain sections of the wall are maintained for visitors. One of the most popular sections is Badaling, close to Beijing.

The BEST Section of the Great Wall | Beijing, China
After much discussion with our local guide, we decided to stay away from Badaling & Mutianyu as they're filled with tourists and tainted with taboggans and KFC! After much research, we found the best part of the Great Wall to visit. It was a little trickier to visit, but it was SO worth it. Rarely seeing anyone two hours out of Beijing with the most insane Great Wall views is one of our ALL-TIME favourite experiences.
