Part of our trip to beijing is the tour the Jade Shop which I think is government owned. Anyways, I was so excited for this part of our trip since I'm so fascinated with Jade. Never mind gold, silver, or even diamond, but much prefer Jade. Jade is a natural rock made with minerals and formed trough time and natural earth formation. Jade is usually color green and it's color gets lighter over time when you wear it without removing it in your body. To tell you the truth, Jade items is much expensive in China than Thailand because chinese people value jade as it gives numerous benefits and also trough the usage of their ancestors.

It was so hard to climb up to the steps of great wall since it's not adjacent to each other some are high and some are low but the view is absolutely perfect.
Hard exercise!
Breathtaking view.
The white leaf tree was hard to ignore since it's surrounded by green leaf trees.
Tourist!! (local and foreign)
These particular locks w/ red ribbon signifies the promise that the person wants to achieve and keep forever.
A western tourist dress up and took a photograph with other tourist. He was funny and nice.

I love this light purple flower tree! I find myself attracted to flowers nowadays because of this particular tree.
This was the white tree picture above.

It was fulfilling to climb at the top of the wall but you will really get tired climbing it. It's not advisable for persons with heart problem or knee problem to go climb the wall since it's very steep and hard maybe a few steps will do and savor the view.
The best time to go to China is during spring time, It's not hot, it's not super cold. The weather is so nice! It's a little cold and not really in need of a jacket just a scarf will do.
If you go to Bejing, make sure to visit all the tourist destinations since it's all worth it.
