China - Great Wall



The great wall, in china, is a "must see" its in many ways just as impressive at Angkor Wat in Cambodia.
The first part of the wall were built, as early as the 7th century, but the most, well known sections of the wall, were built by the Ming dynasty (1368–1644). It was build to defend the country from the Mongolians.
The official length is said to be 21.196 Km, and are on the highest spots up to 14 meters high.
It's said that there's spots to avoid, but as i only been there twice, i cant tell which, the two places i have visited were fine, and mainly had chinese tourists. . ​

Forbidden City



I have visited the wall twice.
Once in April, it were snowing. And once in November with sunshine.
Opposite than expected



Ming tomb



When booking a trip to the great wall, there's normally other stuff included, the better one of these are the Ming Tombs.
There can be a lot of other stuff, like the Jade factory, Tea Factory, ecc. It's all hoax, ticking you into buy heavily overpriced stuff, but also stops that makes the trip cheaper, so as long as you do not buy anything, at these places, you will be ok. The Jade factory even have, the lunch restaurant, where the included lunch will be, food was pretty good there !
