The outdoor class of summer school, visiting The Great Wall at Mutianyu

In the afternoon of 26th, by the leading of Prof. Lan, the summer school students and professors climbed The Great Wall.
Mutianyu Great Wall, is one of the most famous and best preserved sections of the Great Wall together with Badaling (八达岭) and Jinshanling (金山岭) sections. Located in the northeast of Beijing Municipality, Mutianyu is connected with the smaller hotspot sections of Jiankou in the west and Lianhuachi in the east. This section used to serve as the northern wall defending the capital city and the Imperial power, like a giant galloping dragon on mountain peak preserving the entrance to emperors' kingdom.
When the professors and students arrived the top of the Great Wall, all of them were attracted by the beautiful scenery. Sometimes, research is like climbing the mountain. There may be beset with difficulties, but if you insist and fight with them, you will see the different sceneries.
