Serpentine and spanning approximately 21,196 kilometres (13,170 miles) from east and west of China, the Great Wall is often trumpeted as one of the greatest engineering wonders of all of mankind.
And without question at chilling first glance the size of it alone will raise the hair on your neck, it's truly an unforgettable experience. It took over 2000 years of labour to build and many people believe it to be the longest cemetery on Earth, reportedly costing over 1-million lives during its construction.
Each year, over 10-million people visit the Great Wall of China and its most popular section is the Great Wall-Badaling. It is worth noting that this private tour offers a more exclusive and private side of the wall, away from the overcrowded tourist-y side.

And the ideal months for Great Wall camping are late spring, summer and early autumn: May, June, July, August, September and October.

Ming Great Wall features the Simatai and Jinshanling Great Wall, it is more exclusive and away from touristy crowds. This offers a more interesting and intimate experience when compared to a normal group site in the Badaling and Mutianyu section -- better for photographs.

As the most popular hiking trip of the Great Wall, you will visit both Simatai and Jinshanling sections within 3 hours.

Feel free to take a moment and a few extra breaths before reaching the Wall, the hike is worth it and we're sure you will be amazed by the breathtaking panoramic view.
After reaching the watchtower, we'll take a short break and make time for photos. Thereafter we will walk westward to Jinshanling, and get off the wall at Shalingkou at Jinshanling.
If you feel "froggy" and have enough energy, another option is to walk up another 30 minutes and get off at Zhuanduokou.
Indeed. The Great Wall is astounding. From the unrestored walls to the watch towers to the beacon towers that snake on through the mountain, it's absolutely spine-chilling.
And we offer more than just its impressive view, this Great Wall tour gives you a chance to meet local farmers and make new friends, while trying local home-made food and community activities -- it's a photographer's playground.
