Great wall - great experience

This part of the great wall is called Huanghuacheng 黄花城 and it's my 3d part of it. I was to Badaling in 2013 (with a tour) and, gosh, it was so crowded (and the tour was expensive). Times change, it's covid era now: less tourists on the Wall in low season (Friday, end of August) still this part was so relaxingly uncrowded. I went on my own by buses (had a lot of time at hand), stayed there for a night (135yuan, less than 1km from the gates) and spent the next day exploring wild parts. Great experience! Enjoyed the nature, not tourist herds😊 In the street leading from the bus stop (H21) to the gate there is quite a variety of food (fruit, nuts, shaokao, Chinese food, not fancy or/and cheap, but still) #greatwall #beijing
