This is a remnant of an earlier smaller version of the Great Wall which was built further down the valley from the Great Wall.

The scenic camel on its way home after a day hustling the tourists all day.



I went to the Great Wall in the early 80s with a couple of older salesmen who came and looked at the wall from this parking lot and then sat in the building in the background drinking beer all day while I walked up both sides of the valley walls.  The brown wagon in the foreground was ours and the driver hung around and patiently waited for us.
