Night on the Great Wall

China, discover this 2-day trip

Trip Description

The Great Wall is one of the highlights of a trip to China and one of the "Seven Wonders of the World." Built from the 7th century, the Great Wall is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. If you are looking to do something unique, camp on the Wall for an unforgettable night! "When I brought my friends here to the camp, we could feel the history associated with this almost mystical monument. Lying in my sleeping bag, looking at the stars in the silence, I couldn't help but think of the battles that took place for love, power, and land in ancient times. The sunset and sunrise are spectacular. It was undeniably a powerful, unique, and fun camping experience. I am so glad to think that I did it!" - Jane, April 2013
