Though the wall has been rebuilt, it is very nice to see, you can walk up one way & down the other, that gives opportunity of photos on the wall & of it. At this time of year it wasn’t busy & blue sky’s make for great photos. We just hired a local Taxi driver to take us to both the wall & fort, about 180Y (if you don’t speak Chinese like me, download google translate App, it works offline if you don’t have a sim) & for both attractions took about half a day.
