Tang dynasty music – with Zi De GuQin Studio










![A great film of the Great Wall north of Beijing, including `wild wall`, accompanied by great music (踏古 (Ta Gu) by Lin Hai, `Walking into Ancientry`, with Chinese lute (pipa)). We [mum, dad - videographer - and son and daughter, from Singapore] hiked 3 sections of the Great Wall in winter, without any guides after studying blogs and posts by fellow hikers. All these sections are different. From the unrestored GuBeiKou Great Wall where we were the only people around, to the wonderful JinShanLing, where the climb is steep and every direction gives you good photo opportunities, to the restored MuTianYu where we hiked in heavy snowfall. We stayed at local farmhouses on both nights, dined with the locals and hitched rides to nearby bath-houses. Temperature ranged from -5 deg C (day) to -12 deg C (night). Winter daybreak is at 7am and the sky becomes dark by 5pm so one has only 10 hours of daylight, so plan your travelling and hiking schedules carefully. This once-in-a-lifetime experience was captured on video and we would like to share it with you. The feelings just can`t be described - you need to experience it first hand. Take only memories, leave only footprints and kindness . . . A wonderful animation combining traditional Chinese painting and dance - don`t miss it ! 踏古-林海 作曲:林海 视频作者:中国传媒大学动画学院 Hiking the Great Wall 长城 of China in the snow](https://www.beijingbuzzz.com/b183.jpg)
