Beijing, China

[ptrautne]

Attached are my pictures of my 7 day vacation in Beijing. It is defently worth the 14.5 hour flight to get there even just for the Great Wall. If you do get to see the Great Wall I suggest going to the Simatai section of the wall. It's rated one of the harder sections of the wall to hike but the views make up for all the steps you need to climb. I also suggest you hire a tour guide for your visit, Beijing City is huge and I found it pretty difficult to navigate around the city alone. Also if you do go and you can change the iternerary I would suggest leaving off the ming tombs/underground palace. This was one of the most expensie tourist spots to get in and it was the most disapointing tourist spot also.
