May Day Adventure | Guangwu Great Wall: An Unexpected Surprise!

Located in the suburbs near Suzhou, the Guangwu Great Wall was built during the Ming Dynasty. Unlike the more famous sections near Beijing, such as Mutianyu and Badaling, this wild Great Wall is less crowded and offers a unique sense of solitude. Despite its lesser-known reputation, it provides delightful surprises and the feeling of having the place all to yourself is truly wonderful ❤️ The hiking trail is not too challenging. Walking to the beacon tower and back takes about an hour and a half. The journey starts with a man-made staircase and transitions to a dirt path upon reaching the Moon Peak. If time permits, climbing up to the beacon tower is highly recommended for a panoramic view. The unobstructed 360-degree scenery is absolutely stunning and unforgettable 👍
