The Great Wall - Simatai 司马台

There are many spots you can go see the Great Wall 年China but Simatai is one of the "most preserved" spots. Little has been rebuild on it and the amount of tourists are minimal! The downside to Simatai Great Wall is that it's 2h drive outside downtown. But it happened to be on the way home from Chengde so really convenient this time.
By walking up the wall it would have taken over 2 hours or so. Was easier to pay a few euros and take the cable-cart up. Also save some time, besides it's been about 34 degrees all day so I've been sweating like a pig.
The view from the wall was amazing! A little foggy but otherwise fine, the wall is really really long!
