The Great Wall at Jinshanling, China. Better if viewed large.
It is kind of eerie, being pretty much the only ones at the Wall, and we could almost "feel" the history of this wonderfully famous place that goes on for miles and miles, and the beauty of the mountains in the background really makes you feel that you are in the middle of nowhere. It is highly recommended to visit this portion of the Wall, which is a bit further (about 2 hours from Beijing) but well worth it, because it is less frequented by tourists. And stay At the Wall, so you can get an early start, or take a late start to get these fabulous views!
