The
Great Wall is a must on a trip to China. Beijing tours to the Great Wall do not
have commissioned shopping stops, so make the most of your time in the Wall.
There are many sections of the wall to visit, but we recommend Mutianyu if the
visit is in the day, as it will take about half a day. If you want to hike a
little more demanding, you can travel the stretch from Jinshanling to Simatai
or Gubeikou.
Why is there a Great Wall?
The
Great Wall was a key element for agriculture and protection against the Huns
and other warriors from the north. The advantages of this enormous barrier have
been diminishing due to the modernization of the armies and their weapons. The
Wall was originally built of stone, wood, grass and earth. During the Ming
Dynasty, the bricks were produced in furnaces that were located along the Wall
and were then transported back by men. Also, animals like donkeys, mules and
even goats went up to the Wall with bricks tied to his head. Great Wall Tour in
Beijing allows you to explore all the portions of a wall without any hassle.
The
Great Wall of China was built over two thousand years ago. The first stage of
its construction took place between the 7th and 6th centuries BC and the last
during the 14th and 17th centuries. Great Wall tour in
Beijing by Trekclub is specially designed to showcase the ancient portions of the wall to the
tourists.
