Extreme Wild Great Wall hike
Extreme Wild Great Wall hike
Due to its height this part of the Great Wall of China was single sided and narrow. Through the centuries of wind and rain it has become greatly eroded. Although that adds to the charm, it is a very dangerous hike that is NOT to be experienced first hand, but rather by this film. Enjoy the thrill from your armchair, only. And we mean that.
