Beijing - Great Wall at Badaling 1

This is a view of the Great Wall at Badaling, the most popular tourist site. They have even installed hand/guard rail along some of the steeper parts. The stones are all well set. There is even a section where several years ago newly-wed couples set locks on the chain-railing and vowed never to divorce as long as the locks were in place; which they still are. This is the "Disneyland" of the Great Wall, but when you think that millions of guests come here each year, young and old, able and disabled, happy and sad, they find it accessible and safe and they too can "touch" this incredible accomplishment.

This installation includes a theater with historical film strips, a museum with artifacts, many tourist curio shops, and "GOOD" bathrooms, something you come to enjoy when found.
