Welcome to the Great Wall of China!
We went to Mùtiányù, a small village a couple hours outside of Běijīng. From Běijīng, there is a closer place to visit the wall but it is far more crowded. Mùtiányù is farther away, so fewer people come here. We hired a taxi for the day to get here. The day was beautiful fall afternoon so it was a great time to visit.
The Chinese have a saying: “bú dào Chángchéng fēi hǎohàn” which means "until you reach the Great wall, you are not a brave man"
