First page

I have not put captions on all these photos, they simply do not need any. Standing at the foot of the walls is an amazing and awe inspiring stance. Photos do NO justice to the scale and history behind this historical Wonder of the World.

This is the Bandalang section of the wall, about 30 miles northwest of Beijing.

Many Chinese get married at the wall, they bring brass locks with their names on a red tag. These are locked onto the chain on the wall for a permanent rememberance.
