How to go to the Great Wall of China, Mutianyu section (Visit Independently)

       People always say, "He who has never been to the Great Wall of China is not a true man". 相信许多人都知道这句中国名言：“不到长城非好汉。” so I guess no trip to China would be complete without a trip to the Great Wall of China.

A lot of you want me to do a post on how to go to Mutianyu: the transportation, what to look out and where to get bus etc.

A phrase in China “Xi’an is the real heart of China 西安最中国” shows the historical significance of Xi an. They said, go to Shanghai and you will find a 100-year-old China; go to Beijing and you will find a 1000-year-old China; go to Xi’an and then you will find a 3000-year-old China.” I found this saying very true.

It must be extra special, it better be, and it sure was!

Trimmed down the fat, My choice for the best of Beijing in 3 days is as follow.
