It really is a pity that the great majority of visitors to Beijing only get to visit the very heavily 'restored' (and hence rather phoney feeling) section of the Great Wall at Badaling - favoured for its convenience, as it's only 40 miles or so to the north of the capital.
Some of the remoter stretches - like this at Simatai, probably the second most popular tourist spot, but much less spoiled - are quite stunning, especially if you catch them on a day in early summer when the light is like this.
