Great Wall of China - We had a wonderful trip to the Great Wall of China made possible by our tour guide Jennifer who is very knowledgeable about its history, and also, is very patient in providing answers to our question. And our driver Mr. Zhou was responsible in keeping our travel safe throughout our trip.
