The Great Wall at Badaling (Badaling Changcheng)We paid a guy 500 RMB ($60) to take us to the Great Wall at Badaling. Badaling is about 45 minutes from downtown Beijing with the new Badaling Expressway. He slept in the car while we toured the wall. We came back and he then took us to the Jade Market because he felt bad about taking all that money. Crazy. Here are the pictures. |
