The Great Wall – Uhm it’s great! And it’s also a wall.
That should be a song. It dosn’t matter how many times you have seen postcards or how many people have seen it before or whether you can see it from space (You can’t) - It’s F***king Great! Stretching for hundreds of kilometres across seemingly impossible terrain. This monolithic construction did of course fail in its original task - built by the first emperor of China Emperor Nasi Goreng to keep the rabbits at bay. Yes, there are rabbits in china sometimes on the menu.
I also got into trouble for scaling the great wall but the view and 5 min peace and quiet on the wall was well worth it.
