Walking the Great Wall of China |
|
|
I'm wondering whether it is possible to Walk the ENTIRE wall of China?
I've read some pages that some people have already done it but they all
mention some permits and restrictions... If so, where can I get more information regarding what I need?
I guess this is a pretty crazy idea but it is (one) of my really big goals.
I was thinking about doing this in about two years time, when I finish college. But there' s no harm
in starting to plan things ahead. |

China is putting limits on large sections of the Wall to prevent further
deterioration. So it is not possible to walk the entire length of the
Wall. Besides, the entire length is not well defined anyway.
Considering on the state of the great wall of China, it would be much
better to walk BESIDE the wall instead of ON the wall.
It should be noted that the great wall of China actually consist of
several walls, and not all walls are connected with each other.
It was a long time ago, but there is a book still in print with the
account of someone who has done a trip from Jiayuguan to Shanhaiguan, |
