Beijing Continued

After my parents left, Trey and I took a day trip to another section of the Great Wall. We hiked from Jinshanling to Simatai.
The hike is supposed to be about 10km, but it didn't feel that far. The surrounding scenery in this area was very beautiful.
The wall has been restored in some areas and not restored in other areas. There are also less tourists. At the end of the hike we went for a swim in a river that intersects the wall at Simatai. The weather was hot so it was nice to cool off.
