Description

The Great Wall has many different sections, being great and everything. I've visited many of them, but this one is by far my favorite. It's called the Mutianyu. Other sections are Badaling, Mutianyu, Jiankou, Gubeikou, Jinshanling and Simatai. But this one is my favorite so far because it's well maintained, beautiful to photograph, and, best of all, not that many tourists! I ended up staying here way too late and was barely able to find my way back down into the village. My friend down there in the guard tower came from Mongolia. It was so interesting to hear all about her upbringing. I'm a huge "fan" (if I can use that word) of Genghis Khan, and she said everyone in Mongolia has a photo of him over their fireplace. It's proven that something like 95% of Mongolians (and many Chinese) share his ancestry since he apparently made as many babies as possible. Great Wall, China
