How can we see great wall of China when we visit Sanghai
Jul. 19,2009 20:47 Ms.Helen replied:
China Great Wall is located in Beijing, not in Shanghai, so you should first fly from Shanghai to Beijing. And in Beijing, choose your favorate section such as Badaling Great Wall. Take No.919 bus at Deshengmen Gate, the bus ticets costs CNY 12 and the whole trip takes about 1 hour to Badaling.

5 of us will be visiting Beijing in coming late August. I know there are 3 different secions of walls open for tourists. Which one will be a better one to visit? Among us 4 are their first time in Beijing.
Jun. 2,2009 01:51 Mr.Jimmy replied:
You can visit Badaling and Mutianyu since this is your first time in Beijing. Badaling is the most famous section which is noted for the grand construction, and Mutianyu has better views of ups and downs of the wall, the surrounding scenic sight is also beautiful.

Where exactly does it start? And can you walk the complete distance now? Would you be stopped or would it get to be too dangerous as of now?
May. 27,2009 01:29 Mr.Zhen replied:
The China Great Wall starts from Hushan in Liaoning Province, to speak more detailed, but it is generally believed the wall starts from Shanhaiguan Pass in Hebei Province. It is very difficult to walk the complete distance, because many sections of the wall is left as it is without being repaired, and the wall is located in the mountains, so it is too dangerous to walk the whole length.
