The Great wall of China is supposed to be one of the few man-made structures that can be identified from space, Hum...
Even with the Unesco coordonates (40°24'59" N, 116°4'59" E) and High Res Google Earth, the wall stay invisible for me.
Who will be the first to find the great wall ?

Another section that looks more like what people think of when they think 'Great Wall of China' because this is where most of the tourists go andthe famous pictures are taken.

Here is where it crosses one of the three great pass along its length.
40.664709, 116.316722

That's NOT the good part. My opinion? No, that's fact, my friends. Is that where the tram is? 99% of everyone who ever sees the wall sees it there. If that was the only portion still standing then that would be understandable... but it's a little longer than those few kilometers, ay?
Here's a tip: venture further off the tourist path.
