50 Images from the Great Wall of China
On the second day of our tour of China, we visited the Great Wall at Mutianyu. We rode a cable car up to tower 14 of the Great Wall of China and walked to tower 21.
We only walked about three kilometers in total, but the climb from tower 19 to 21 was very steep. It was cold, but the skies were a bright blue, which was pretty amazing. We could see so far. Take a look at what we saw.

It's been said you can see the Great Wall from space. You can't. It's even pretty small from the reception center, only a few kilometers away.
We really enjoyed the cultural significance of the Great Wall.
