Never, in my whole entire life, have I ever been more exhausted than today. The Great Wall of China was incredibly massive in sheer length and size. I remember walking up on top of one of the gates and continuously counting the number of gates in the horizon. I cannot even comprehend how many hours, men, and power it took to build such a thing. Now I definitely can see why it took multiple dynasties to build it.
Afterwords, we traveled to a bargain market, and that was very culturally unique. I greatly enjoyed walking around and witnessing people and how they bargained for lower prices on various items. Things ranging from Adidas, Coach, Sony, Armani, etc. could be found and all could be obtained at a very cheap price. It was funny to see how just a simple 5 minute conversation sparking interest in an item, throwing a ridiculously low price out there, and walking away is all that's needed to buy an item at a good price. I definitely had a great time. All in all, everything we did today was downright amazing. and the Great Wall of China is something I never thought I would have had the pleasure of experiencing... I love this place!
