Ni Hao Xiao Shou.

I spent four years in China and never got to visit the Great Wall.  An interesting observation is that you are in possession of a lethal weapon!     :saywhat:  

Lucky guy!  I spent fours years not being able to live my passion.  

Thanks for the tour!

My wife and i hiked a few miles of the Great Wall of China in the fall of 2010. Trying to get photos without a ton of people in the back ground is hard to do.

Great post here!    :thumbsup:

I echo the incredible scenery statements, but also find it amazing that you were able to take bow and arrows on that journey!

Excellent! What a "blast from the past" to be phogotgraphed in those epic places and battlements with a vintage style bow from days of yore! Incredible.

Just wondering how long it takes you to round up all your arrows, after shooting them off that wall? Good pics.

Thanks for sharing, it must be something to stand with your bow where others have stood for thousands of years with theirs.

The greatwall is very long,maybe you hiked in the public park so there must be lots of people.
I will take my bows walk along the whole greatwall.

I can shoot that way,cause it is the tradtional chinese way to shoot a bow.
However when i shoot in my home yard i prefer 3 finger way(mediterranean style).
