The Great Staircase of China















Boo and I took an 11 Km hike on the Great wall of China. We went from Jinshaling to Simatai. It was spectacular. It was well worth the 3 hour bus ride, there weren't many tourists and most of the time we had the place to ourselves.
It was filled with steep staircases and thousands of stairs. I like
Boo's idea of putting in a long escalator parallel to the great wall. So when you get tired you can just rest on the escalator.
Even though it was the hardest hike we have ever been on, it was also the best.
