Great Wall at Badaling

at the wall

Many tourists and locals are here today to celebrate the New Year. We even saw dancing ladies earlier today at the entrance.

on our way to Badaling

View on the way to Great Wall. We went to the Badaling section since it is accessible from our apartment. It is so windy today, it is a good thing it has stopped snowing, the snow is already very thick in this part of Beijing.

outside Starbucks

We are all surprised to see the Starbucks at the entrance, but never the ones to let an opportunity pass... we went in to get something hot to drink. We even got the guy at the counter to take a picture of us even though its very cold outside...
