Or visit www.drone-made.com for more info about flying a drone 🙌 The Great Wall of China is an impressive monument which stretches over 21,000 kms from sea to desert. We have been fortunate enough to visit some remote parts of the wall over several hiking days from the little village of Gubeikou. The history of the wall is unfortunately very morbid with an estimated 1,000,000 deaths to complete its construction over centuries. Whilst we had great fun putting together this video and hiking some of the most isolated parts of the wall, this aerial drone movie is a tribute to those who died for it. Most of our videos come from the parts of the hike near Gubeikou village, China: the little village features 2 of the most remote and unique hikes in the world following the Great Wall of China. To access Gubeikou Village from Beijing, the easiest (and cheapest) way is to go by Bus. You will need to catch the 980 Express from Dongzhimen station and get off the last stop at Miyun Long distance bus station. From there, switch to the Minibus 25 that will bring you straight to Gubeikou. 🚨 Arriving in Miyun, many drivers will ask you to climb in their cars as they know you are heading to the Great Wall, trust your guts and look at the bus stop for M25, and wait (there is one bus every hour, the last one leaving at 6pm from Miyun). The total journey will cost you about 40 yuan and takes 3H. Another note worthy site is the Huanghuacheng Great Wall which hosts some hidden spots nearby the famous tourist trap that are worth a hiking day or two. To access Huanghuacheng Wall from Beijing you will need to catch the 916 Express from Dongzhimen station and get off the last stop at Huairou bus station. From there, switch to the Minibus 21 that will bring you straight to Huanghuacheng Great Wall entrance ticket. There is one bus every hour, the last one leaving at 5.10 pm from Huanghuacheng. The total journey will cost you about 40 yuan and takes 2H. Our experience hiking and flying above the Great Wall of China was one of life goals and it sure did not disappoint us. We've shared more information in our blog post to help you get there as well. https://www.drone-made.com/post/great-wall-of-china-drone-rules Share your feedback or more good access points of the Great Wall of China so we get to plan a second trip and expand this movie..
