We took a day to hike along the
Great Wall from Jinshanling to Simatai - 8 km of seriously hard work, through 30 watch towers and up and down countless steps. This is the non-touristy section of the Wall, which has not been altered much since it was originally built. Of course, there were still locals offering "iced-water-coca-beer" at every tower (the price more expensive the higher you climb!) And we didn't see a single rabbit!
The scenery was spectacular, the weather perfect, the company entertaining and the photos...(well see for yourselves). But gee my legs hurt the next day!
