Day 50 – Sunday - Beijing Day 2

Day 50 – Sunday

Beijing Day 2

Day two was spent travelling around. We went to the Great Wall Of China, most people that has already went over, was saying that it is impossible to climb finish to the top, or that its really tiring and stuff, however what was in my mind before climbing was I was going to try my very best to complete that task, however sadly, we were only given like a 1.5hrs to climb up and also back down to the original location. And yes it’s quite tiring at times of the climbing, it’s very steep for some path and the stairs were very much uneven and way higher than a safe stair case.

We took quite a fair bit of photos as every step we walked ourselves up the top, the scenes from all angles was just way too beautiful that we snapped our way up. Lighten up my mood a little by having that cool winding wind (the one I experienced in Dalian) and also that massive scene of the whole lot just was lovely.
Later we headed over to the 13 tombs of the emperors of the Qing dynasty and lastly was the summer palace where the emperors once live in and enjoy their times in there, its like a garden for them.
I started to appreciate the Chinese Architecture, where they all have some similarities in them but however after seeing so many of them, I am pretty much impress and starts loving them ever since.
