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.

City trip Beijing, China
Beijing, China
7 - 11 October 2016
The #city #trip #Beijing was part of our #China #Tour in October 2016. Please find the summary of the China Tour here:
We arrived in Beijing by plain in the afternoon and walked to the Tiananmen Square, one of the largest squares in the world. The #Tiananmen Square is really impressive. The Tiananmen Square is named after the Tiananmen (Gate of Heavenly Peace).
The next day we visited the Temple of Heaven Park. In the park the #Chinese people were dancing, sporting and playing cards or other games. Maybe it was nicer to see these active Chinese people than the Temple of Heaven itself.
After lunch we travelled by subway to the Forbidden City in the center of Beijing. The Forbidden City was the Chinese imperial palace in the Ming and Qing dynasties (1420-1912). These days the Forbidden City was forbidden for everybody who was not part or not working for the imperial family.
Of course we have eaten the Peking Duck (Beijing Roast Duck) for dinner.
After 2 days hiking on the Great Wall of China (see we continued the Beijing trip with a visit of the Summer Palace. The emperors went to the Summer Palace to escape from the crowded city and. Now there are more than 200.000 visitors a day.
We left Beijing by night train.

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!

Great Wall of China, Beijing - Winter is the best time to visit China!
The Great Wall of China is a World Heritage wonder and the only man-made structure that can be seen from outer space. It's a jaw-dropping sight at any time of the year but for a special treat, go in winter. You'd be surprised to find that winter is the best time to visit China and to explore the Great Wall without the crowds. The winter wonderland landscape is ethereal, especially when it snows on the Great Wall.
When visiting the Great Wall there are several places you can climb the wall. You can take a Badaling Great Wall tour or a Mutianyu Great Wall tour.
Visiting the Great Wall of China is one of the most iconic things to do when you're in Beijing. Walking the Great Wall of China is something everyone should try at least once. You don't have to walk the whole way. Well, you'd have to be pretty fit to do so!
It's a day trip to visit while staying in Beijing. My tour was organised by Bespoke Beijing. I stayed at China World Summit Wing in the Shangri-La Beijing.

Best Mountain Scenery around Beijing: White River Hike Day Trip!
I love being outdoor and being active. While living in Beijing it isn't always easy to go outdoors and enjoy nature. Luckily there are some companies who organize hikes to nature parks in the surroundings of Beijing.
Together with the Beijing Hikers I went on the 'White River Hike'. About 2 hours from Beijing, in the Miyun district, you can find a canyon with a river. I hiked along and through the river, surrounded by lush trees and mountains.
I would really love your support! Please subscribe to my channel if you got value from this video:

First trip to the Great Wall of China in Beijing
Hi Everyone,
Hope you enjoy this short video of our tour to the Great Wall of China. We had an awesome time. Yes, it was hot but you didn't really notice because your so busy enjoying the scenery.
As you can see the steps were very steep so unfortunately we didn't get to make it up to the top. We thought it would be too dangerous to take our girls up and down. You better believe if we didn't have the children we would have hiked all the way up to the top.
So, after hanging out on the steps we made our way down to the square and waited for our Groupon tour group to meet us. Once everyone made it down we jumped on the bus and headed out to get lunch (which was delicious).

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!

The Longest Way 1.0 - walk through China and grow a beard! - a photo every day timelapse
GET MERCH:
In 2008, I walked through China - 1 year, 4500km. I let my hair and my beard grow. This is the resulting video. UPDATE: ▶ I have decided to continue my walk home from China to Germany. I'm currently in Georgia, or about halfway through.I post daily videos on this channel, and I blog about it here:
ABOUT THIS VIDEO:
▶ I didn't finish my original goal of walking to Germany in 2008. Instead, I walked for a year and roughly 4500km, passed the Gobi desert, and then decided to stop walking.
▶ All of the distance from Beijing to Ürümqi was completed solely on foot, straight good old walking. There are instances where you can see me in the video sitting on a plane or riding a boat, but those are during breaks I had to take from walking, either to sort out bureaucracy issues or to take care of some personal things.
▶ I had been planning this trip for over a year before I even started, and getting as far as I got was an experience for which I am very grateful.
▶ Obtaining the necessary visa for a trip like this was not very easy, hence I had to go back to Beijing a few times to resolve some issues.
▶ This is not a strict 1 pic a day video, because I wanted to make it a bit more alive by adding some additional movement. Sometimes during the film you would follow me turn around, or something would happen in the background. I tried to capture these moments to make the video more interesting.
▶ If you liked the music I used in this video, get it here: The Kingpins - L'Aventurier Zhu Fengbo - Olive Tree
▶ The core of this project is in actually my blog where I have posted my extensive travel diary, starting from day 1 (Nov 9th 2007) and describing every single day until the end one year later.
