Great Wall of China.

The climb up the Great Wall of China was the highlight of this entire trip! I’ve always wanted to climb up there! It’s one of the must see that I’ve set in my life amongst many other great UNESCO Sites.

Aww. I love it!

I’m sparing you guys from all the boring wiki facts about Great wall!  I doubt this universe famous site (you can actually see it from the Moon) requires any introduction! So I’m going to flood this post with lots of pictures! I can’t get enough of it!

Look at the flowers! I think it is some sort of mountain cherry blossoms.

I thought we only aimed for the third tower! But we just kept going even on all fours!

It is definitely worth the climb!

Up up up.

We finally reached the end of the trail! The top of the route! The seventh tower! I guess all my gym sessions paid off!

Our victory pose!

Seven of us made it to the top. One of them was not in the picture because he finished it within 22 minutes (average man takes 30 minutes) while we were still walking up! Steph and I were the only two girls from our trip to made it all the way up! Girl Rocks!

We went up panting, came down shaking (our knees and legs!)

I bought a medal for myself with my name engraved on it. A medal for the true (wo)man.
