The Great wall of Jiankou, Beijing

I went up to Jiankou from the Shun Tong fish farm center, got lost and it took me almost 2,5 hours to get to the wall. Extremely hard hiking with alot of dangerous slips and falls, dont go alone like i did and bring a guide if your not EXTREMELY experienced hiker. Can really recommend the walk from Jiankou to Mutianyu

If you only have one chance to go to the Great Wall, choosing Jiankou is the most worthwhile. This is the real Great Wall, and you can truly feel the greatness of ancient civilization. Of course, Jiankou is also the most precarious, and animals cannot climb over in many places. So you must have an experienced tour guide. We chose Great Wall Adventure Club (You can search on Google), and the guide Oliver took us through places where many people were afraid to go. Bravo!
