Description
Explore the Jinshanling section of the Great Wall of China, renowned for its steep and perilous terrain. Hike along mountain crests, with watchtowers perched on sheer cliffs and stairways rising at daunting angles. Tread upon bricks weathered by four centuries of wind and frost, while beacon towers gaze silently beyond the frontier. As the mountain wind howls through arrow slits and worn stones lie underfoot, the echoes of ancient garrison soldiers and their armored steeds seem to still reverberate across the peaks. Climb this section of the wall to converse with the Great Wall in its most primal, Ming-dynasty essence. Experience the raw, untamed side of China’s most iconic landmark.Includes
