So finally I had some time off and I went from the ship to visit some places in China.

I booked a tour and arrived to see the Great Wall of China.

Behind this wall is a great deal of history , part of it is:
The history of the Great Wall of China began when fortifications built by various states during the Spring and Autumn 771–476 BC and Warring States periods from the year 475 to 221 BC were connected by the first emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang, to protect his newly founded Qin dynasty between 221 and the year 206 BC against incursions by nomads from Inner Asia.
Note :Info from Wikipedia

The thing that I find so interesting is that is still standing after all this time.

I walked all the way up and seen some fantastic views .

The weather was sunny and I took a look of pictures of the environment.
I hope I will get another chance to visit China as it is a huge place and each place is different.
