Great Wall of China1 of the 7Wonder of the World and 6more to go.... Well picture this? There's none machine ever invented for transportation the rocks and bricks. Only with our bare hands and feet, just imagine how did the people in the Ching's Dynasty builded this great wall as a protection against their enemies? Even for a 18 year old guy find it challenging to climb up, how in the world did those people carried those huge rocks up the hill? and this took billions of lifes to build and rebuild it back the the old days and for the material for the inner walls, they used the dead bodies.... which i personally thinks its scary enough to believe it. Certificate for the pussies, it was located at the lowest(first) watch tower when i passed by. And i couldn count how much towers are there caused it never ends... and i managed to climbed the 7th only which also the highest tower from where my bus stopped. Well the view on the top was superb. Using my kit lens was the only option I have for the day. I'm not as rich as people out there who's able to buy those fancy lenses... but seriously i should have used a wide angle(if i have la...) the final stairs to reach to the top.... and it took us quite some time to reach there! Well climbling up was not a problem at all, take this advice from me. "GOING down was harder compared to the climbing..." You can all experience it to believe it =) It worth every single cents you paid when you're in the Great Wall. I was there and I didn managed to conquer it all. I shall leave it for those who's planning to go there in the next holiday =) and one thing I really hate about following a TOUR... they GAVE me too little time to take pictures. SCREW it!
