great-wall-of-china.jpgIt is about time that they came up with a new list of the Seven Wonders of the World. That old one was getting kind of stale. Now that the list has been named, you probably want to visit each site. We’re here to help you on your journey. Today we take a look at the Great Wall of China.

The largest man-made object ever constructed the Great Wall of China stretches for more than 4,000 miles. Most of the segments of the wall are in remote places that are very hard to travel to. The most accessible portions, which also happen to be the most crowded, are near Beijing. The Mutianyu section is especially scenic and it is a mere three hours by train from Beijing. There are a bunch of reasonably priced accommodations in the area, but be forewarned that these tend to fill up quickly on weekends and holidays.

You can go here search for the best deal on flights to Beijing. To read about the adventures of a woman who is walking the entire length of the Great Wall, visit the always entertaining The Great Wall Nut. For more tips on travel to China, visit the China Travel Guide and the China Logue.
