Great Feeling in Badaling Great Wall

My friends and I we four friends really have a wonderful day trip in Beijing this time. One day tour to Badaling Great Wall and Ming Tombs did leave us a deep impression.
Early in the morning, the English speaking tour guide picked us up at my hotel and started the trip. The first destination is Ming Tombs. On the car, the tour guide told us about the history of Ming Tombs: Ming Tombs is the Chinese emperors mausoleum building with better preserved and was classified as "the world's largest intact burial Emperor Tombs". Until the last Ming emperor buried into the tomb, during 230 years, there has built thirteen emperors tombs.
Dingling and Changling are both opened to the tourists. Dingling is the only one underground palace. And among 13 tombs, Changling is the most famous one. It is the largest and the earliest tomb of the thirteen with the ground buildings most intact and well preserved. It is the mausoleum of the third emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Emperor.
After the short discussion, we decided to visit Changling. The way lead to the Changling is called the Sacred Road. It means the road leading to heaven is lined with 18 pairs of stone human figures and animals which are important decorations of the mausoleum. I am very interested in them.

Bird Eye View of Badaling

After lunch and a short rest, we went to see the famous Badaling Great Wall. Oh, it is really incomparable. Having the overlooking, it just likes a dragon getting ready for flying. If energetic, we would like to climb to the top. But after a half day traveling in Ming Tombs, we were already tired and had to take the cable car. Thanks to the sunny weather, having a bird's eye view is really wonderful and the beautiful scenery beyond my words. I really like the feeling. We took a lot of photos on the top and overlooking the mountains in distance. Though here is very crowed and full of local tourists, it did not disturb us enjoying!
He who has not been to the Great Wall is not a true man! Today I got a deep understanding about this word. At last, thank you very much to our patient guide.

1 Day Beijing Mutianyu Great Wall Bus Tour

As the transfer stop, Beijing attracts me lot, even though it is not my first time in Beijing. It is summer in China now, and the good time to have a Beijing tour. Because of the layover time in Beijing, I booked 1 day bus tour online, offered by a Beijing China travel agency. Last time in Beijing, I visited the most famous Badaling Great Wall, but this time I chosen what I most wanted places – Mutianyu Great Wall and Ming Tombs.
The tour guide and driver picked me up on our departure time. After breakfast, I started my journey to Ming Tombs. Entered the car, I found the other tourists were all Americans, and we become friends quickly. About one and a half drive time, I arrived at Ming Tombs. This was the first time I enjoyed the real coffin chamber. Walking through a green way where placed various big animal status and supposed to be the Ming guides. I visited the most famous Dingling and Changling, they are the two largest coffin chambers in Ming Tombs. Entering the buildings, I was surprised how they built them in that ancient time. They are so ornate and well-preserved, buried 13 emperors in Ming Dynasty.

Summer Scenery of Mutianyu Great Wall

After traditional Chinese lunch, we were transferred to Mutianyu Great Wall. It is far away from Beijing downtown than Badaling Great Wall, but well worthy of your visit as the most beautiful portion among sections of the Great Wall. Less crowded than Badaling section, Mutianyu section is the best choice to enjoy the beauties and breathe the fresh air in suburbs of Beijing. It is very short walk from the parking lot to the base of Mutianyu section where you can take cable car to the wall. What an experience to seeing this small section of the Great Wall of the 7 wonders in ancient world. Perfect weather made the day extremely enjoyable and one I will never forget.

Grand View at Mutianyu Great Wall and Forbidden City

We have stayed in Beijing for a week from Sep 17th to 23th, but just one day free. For this day, we booked the Beijing one day tour but not bus tour, covered Mutianyu Great Wall, Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square. It was my first time to Beijing, and it has been the experienced memory.

View of Mutianyu Great Wall

No visit would be complete without seeing the Great Wall of China, said by friends. This BeijingLandscapes.com recommended me the section at Mutianyu because of less crowded. The Great Wall has a history of more than 2000 years. The first part was built in Spring and Autumn Period, and all the walls were joined up in Qin Dynasty. All wall was built depend upon labors only without any help of facilities. Since then, it has been rebuilt and maintained many times. The Great Wall at Mutianyu is the first choice for many foreign tourists, it is said that this section has beautiful scenery and less crowded people. In fact, it was really. We took various pictures with many strange postures, showed the happy mood of us. About 2 hours later, we ended this Great Wall, and had local Chinese lunch. If you are afraid of the height of the Great Wall, you can also take cable car to view from an opened sight.

Around Tiananmen Square

Then we moved to Tiananmen Square, and visited Forbidden City, also known as Palace Museum in Chinese. It is located at Beijing center and opposite to Tiananmen Square from the Changan Avenue. It is said there were 24 Chinese emperors lived there during Ming and Qing Dynasty. It is worthy the name of the largest and well-preserved wooden group of buildings in the world. The elaborate sculpture techniques and magnificent construction made me enjoyed myself in it. Especially the Exhibition of Treasures, showed us the imperial appliances in ancient China. They are so valuable that were protected very well. Everyone told us the luxurious life of emperors and their family. In fact, as far as I know, you can find the family love rarely among these values at that time.

Last, we visited the Bird Nest and Water Cube from distance. They are the representations of modern architecture of Beijing. There are many travelers took pictures with them, and there is only 10 meters between them.
I thought this Beijing tour just is the start of my China tour, I would enjoy the various beauties of China in my life.
