Got goosebumps watching this! The scale of it! Well done on showing the best a camera can do, and you are so lucky that you got to witness it first hand which I'm sure way more grand than what the camera can capture.

[@yananneteoh9818]

Excellent shots . I'm watching the familiar places all over for your videos are so good , taking in the true feel of each landscape. Well done, Jason!

[@JasonBillamTravel]

Thanks Anne!

[@NychelleStephens]

[@Runejitsu]

[@kevinh2024]

Impressive. You didn’t even break a sweat or gas for air after all those climbs.👏👍. I did that in my 20’s. Met a young doctors couple hiking on GW trails.

[@supansnyder6315]

Good Day, Jason. You are really great to be walking so far into the great wall !

awesome video bro 👍 china wall looking awesome..but the sad part is most of the wall is closed...

[@kumarks583]

Great video of great wall. I was there in 25-09-2018. I have climb the mountain 4km above. It is very beautiful.

[@sumyakona2909]

So So amazing!!! so beautiful view!! I loved the place

[@AnuragMishra94]

Hiii sumya

[@gmh2374]

It’s always been a dream for me to visit China Specially the great wall

[@eddie_d1233]

I've watched all your China videos and as your first ones I like that in these you showed the good and the not so good things, like the not enjoyable foods to the crowds to the problems with the trains. In your later videos I've seen so far you tend to skip those parts and these China videos shows warts and all. That's what I find when I travel and it's good that I'm not the only one. Thanks a lot for this experience.

[@DHammerr]

1:44 that constant stream of people climbing to the top, for me, is a metaphor for the struggles and hardships of humanity, everybody trying to get to the green pastures.

[@valerieflores3165]

DHammer omg that's true though

[@sandysandy967]

U describe so well thanks.

[@ilgirodelmondoconandrea]

wonderful the last view of this video!

[@user-fp3pz8mw2p]

Fantastic

[@TravelDiaryofaFightingCouple]

Very nice video! Such a beautiful blue sky, you were luckier than us! :)

[@nickwey214]

I like the way you travel, try to walk more and try to conquer the Great Wall as far as you can, and to experience different aspects of a city other than the attractions only, and of course, with budget under control so you can explore more. I'm also a world traveller, hope one day we can meet at somewhre on the planet.

[@user-wu7kc5mc9v]

Very interesting. Thank you so much. From nepal.

[@nirmalchaturvedi5614]

[@liqunxie8697]

tnx for the views. i visited the Great Wall in a hurry and didn't go that far.

[@DrawingTechnical]

Wow, the atmosphere and sky are a beautiful backdrop to the wall. Too bad it's blocked a part way.

[@lavieee6354]

A great experience ! Could you please tell me if you can take a cable car when going up the great wall and you comeback walking down ?

[@kiangsong2285]

Highly recommend Jiankou Great Wall next time, the real abandoned ancient ruins.

[@JasonBillamTravel]

Yes! Will definitely go there one day!

[@gardensofthegods]

I wonder if that's what I was just looking at a little while ago on the travellight Channel... they hiked with an elderly tour guide and there was not one tourist or other human being around for miles and miles and a lot of the wall was reclaimed by Mother Nature.

[@priscillavilcab5799]

@@gardensofthegods the one you were looking at is actually in the province of Hebei. Like 2 hours away from Beijing. I also found out about it tru travellight. My friend and I did that one and stayed with a local family that runs a businesses there. You can find the info in greatwallfresh.com so yeah we had the wall to ourselves. There was no guide available that morning which was actually even better. No one else other than my friend and I. We did 20k :) I will def recommend to visit that part of the wall, but don't stay with the family. You do not get what you pay for in terms of food and accommodation. I hope this helps.

[@nicechineseguy]

Magnificent monument. This is deserving one of the 7 wonder of the world.

[@brianspohn2932]

Thanks for sharing your glory..

[@cindyzhang7622]

It's Shuanguan Great Wall, southeast to Badaling Great Wall in the real sense. Shuiguan Great Wall is named after a pass on the Great Wall, called Water Pass. Badaling Great Wall in the real sense is named after Badaling Pass. the two sections are connected and belong to Badaling military defense work. so called Badaling Shuiguan Great Wall. but Badaling Great Wall appears more magnificant. the taxi driver was not happy apparently. in Pass Valley, there are four sections opento visitor. Badaling Great Wall is the farthest one.

[@xiaoweic.8053]

When I studied in Beijing from 2012 to 2015, I went to Mutianyu Great wall for three times. The Great wall used to be the military fortifications invented in China about 1700 years ago. The ones you walked in Beijing is originally built from the year 1368 to 1644. It's really unbelievable when you walked on it. How can ancient labors build these on the ridge of the mountains?

[@xggong8261]

jajaja,as chinese l don't know😁😁

[@launika02]

Hello, please from which station I can get to the bus for Mutianyu entrance?

[@diegourbina9483]

Awesome Video mate, what month did you go in? Booked my trip to China right after seeing this video! Keep up the good work!

[@JasonBillamTravel]

This was in August 2016

[@danielwonderley6817]

I’d love to see that I’ve wanted to visit the Great Wall of china ever since I heard about it.

[@eddystronger]

Hey Jason, I am watching all of your videos, let me make a technical question, what's the camera and phone that you're using to record your videos? Any particular lenses? I've been to all these places where you had visited, but I couldn't get so right images like you did. Would you mind to share your recipe? I really loved your vlogs, amazing job.

[@JasonBillamTravel]

Hey Eddy, for this video I only used a Canon Powershot G7x. In my more recent videos I've integrated slo-mo and time-lapses taken on my iPhone. Sorry for the delayed reply!

[@eddystronger]

Thanks for replying JB, your videos and editions are very pleasant to watch. Now I'm subscribed I will not miss one of your new videos. Thanks for sharing the info.

[@lucian186]

I suggest you to the Great Wall at Mutianyu， there are more fewer people。

[@syncmaster915n]

Next time when you visit the Great Wall, bring a drone :)

[@JasonBillamTravel]

That would be insane, I'll remember that.

[@gulogulo3881]

Is it allowed?

[@syncmaster915n]

Gulogulo I've seen youtube footage, shot by non-Chinese.

[@gulogulo3881]

syncmaster915n Ah ok thx :) Do you know where it is not allowed? Can I start my drone always and everywhere? (except military area, police stations etc...)

[@syncmaster915n]

No, I don't. China's drone regulations are still lax. Stay away from sensitive areas like you've stated and airports of course, and don't attract large crowds (when police sees a large crowd, they most likely will come to check what's going on); you'll be ok.

[@427ci3]

All the westerners are saying how polluted Beijing is, to me the sky looks nice and blue.

[@birdyashiro1226]

427 CI it's way better now

[@patrisio3]

Beijing pollution occurs mostly during the winter when most homes and small businesses are burning coal for heating.

[@AlmightyAaron0423]

427 CI they also told every Chinese daily meal is dog and cat, actually before 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, American politicians even said only Chinese communist members and their families are allowed drink Coca Cola, many people believes it.

[@kylejones5281]

Wy123 China is the biggest consumer of coke believe it or not.

[@felixl3477]

Hi Jason, how long does it take for you to complete both left and right section of the Badaling section?

[@JasonBillamTravel]

If you take your time, then I would think about 3-4 hours

[@felixl3477]

Jason Billam Travel , thank you.

[@thabanimaulets]

Hey Jason What month did you visit and which hotel were you staying in Beijing? Thank youxxxxxx

[@JasonBillamTravel]

August, and I stayed at a hostel in the Hutongs, there’s loads to choose from there on Hostelworld.

[@user-sb3jo1ih6w]

Then the hot weather, without any cold location, then the long road, those tourists are not afraid to faint in the middle of the road?

[@ericwang6096]

the great wall can extend to Xi'an , and even more west part of China.

[@fargr5926]

These days you can just spend 100 RMB to take dedicated travel bus to and back from Great Wall.
