My 9k Walk: Great Wall of China

At Jingshanling Entrance; the wall is well maintained.
You have to pay before you enter
I passed 30 towers before reaching Simatai Entrance The woman in blue hat accompanied me just after the driver dropped us in that small village.
She speaks english and tried to convince me to buy a shirt and/or a book from her.
Very expensive! She helped me when I almost fainted after an hour walk :)))
Amazing structure!
unmaintained part of the wall
I thought I won't be able to make it after two hours walk
some parts are already ruined; writings of soldiers on the wall (upper pix)
after 3 hours, I reached this hanging bridge almost near Simatai entrance
3o minutes later, I was in the parking lot. Success!
