The time for our tour bus to arrive was really early in the morning it was good that we woke up earlier than that so we didn't have to rush when getting ourselves ready.
We ate breakfast and we waited a little bit longer for our tour bus, I was really tired.
We got on the tour bus and I took a nap because the bus trip was more than an hour how long. When I woke up we were already there at the Mutianyu Great Wall.
Our tour guide said that there are two ways to go one of the ways are walking up and taking the slide down, the other way is by cable car up to tower 12. We took the cable car way up.
The great wall was made to be a border to protect the Chinese Empire from raids. They built it not straight but up and down the mountains and slopes, making it hard for us to walk without needing to breath after few minutes of walking on many stairs, to me it seemed almost like a dragon with its zig zag pattern. We were able to get some really good photos of the view. I was able to make it to post 22 but my mom got half way up before we had to walk back to eat lunch and get on the bus.
I recommend before you go there to train by jogging long distances so you don't have to catch your breath every dozen of stars. I also recomend having someone with you to encourage you on the long walk. I think the Great Wall is a great place to visit with friends or family but hard to walk on with its steep stairs.
