The Flying Fox103 viewsNot to brag or anything, but this was one heck of a flying fox.

Final Towers101 viewsIf you look in the distance you can see the wall goes on but my destination is at the bottom of that valley.

Not Going To Miss96 viewsThere are a few things I won't miss about China. Rolled up shirts are one of them.

Reclaiming the Wall94 viewsIt came from the Earth and the planet wants it back. Weeds have taken over a thousand years but they're breaching China's defences.

Fast Way Down94 views20 minutes walking or a Flying Fox trip to the bottom? Decision made.

Suspense Bridge92 viewsWooden planks are not the only thing near the end of their ropes.

Dean in Beijing77 viewsYes, I was there around the time of the Olympics. But, sadly, not during them.

The I Love China Campaign76 viewsThe question is, who loves China the most. Certainly, without a shirt to proclaim it, it isn't me. Though they did lend me a flag for the photo.

Hall of Embracing the Universe74 viewsThough it doesn't look especially universal, I think before electricity and the city grew this little place would've been ideal for stargazing.

Chenlu - The Front Door73 viewsOne the main gate for coming to and from Beijing, now it is a decorative piece of restored architecture in the city's heart.

Steep Incline73 viewsNext rest point: the top.
IMG_0575.jpg
Seventeen Arch Bridge72 viewsLeading to the Hall of Embracing the Universe on a small island, probably once a good place to lay back and look at the stars.
IMG_0764.jpg
Road to Ruin72 viewsThis part of the Great Wall is not so touristed and as a result it's not being maintained. It's much more appealing to walk the original wall.
IMG_0779.jpg
All That's Left71 viewsThis watch tower has good visibility in all directions, but protection is inadequate.
IMG_0796.jpg
Great Wave71 viewsUp and down and back up some more.
IMG_0550.jpg
Summer Palace70 viewsKunming Lake is the centrepiece but like all good centrepieces only serves to frame everything beautifully along the periphery, flowers, pagodas, and palaces.
IMG_0564.jpg
Jade Belt Bridge70 viewsI'm not sure of the name of the building soaring up on the mountain top, though.

Marble Boat69 viewsIt's a marble boat, but can it float?
