Overview
Take a trip to Great Wall of China on your China Vacation
Spanning the distance of half the world's equator, the Great Wall of China is the longest wall in the world. It was envisioned as a defensive project to protect China's north and promote the expansion of the Silk Road. Construction of the wall began in the Qin Dynasty (221-206 BCE) and continued through many different dynasties. One of the most visited tourist attractions in the world, the Great Wall of China receives an estimated 10 million visitors annually.
Hiking is a popular way to appreciate the enormity and design of the wall. You can also head on a night walk on the beautifully lit wall, camp under the stars, enjoy a picnic in Mutianyu and Simatai sections, toboggan slide down the wall, and or even go on a helicopter tour over it. There are no toilets on the wall, so use the restrooms in the valley before ascending. As there are no shops or restaurants either, carry essentials and have a full breakfast/meal before setting out.
