Destination Expert Antonia experiences the Great Wall of China in total seclusion and with an incredible surprise at the end.
The Chinese believe that you can be no hero until you have climbed the Great Wall of China, so off we set in search of one of the ‘New’ Seven Wonders of the World, and for what became one of the most remarkable and memorable days of the trip. The Great Wall really is, an absolute ‘must’ when you are visiting China, and my advice would be to allow for a little more time and travel slightly further from Beijing to the more remote and quieter sections of the wall where there will hardly another soul in sight.
