Great Wall Village

I've posted some pictures of us leaving the village on foot, this is how we walked for two hours before we arrived at a rode suitable for the tour bus. There is also a picture of our village from the opposite hill, so as we were leaving I turned back to take a picture to give you guys an idea of where we were staying. And keep in mind, during this walk we were able to look up at anytime and see the Great Wall looming over us on the surrounding hills, it was so amazing to experience the beauty and majesty of such a historically important site from the perspective of a local who witnesses it everyday as they pull weeds or care for their chickens.
