Reina,
we're almost back to the ship and I thought I'd tell you again how thrilled we were with all the arrangements and with Lei and Mr. Yuan especially. They were a delight. She is so knowledgeable and sweet. I wish I could speak Chinese a 1/10th of how well she speaks English. And she is so considerate of us. Mr Yuan is a very talented driver and is quite nice, too. Thank you for both of them. I hope my payment was not a problem. I am sorry if I was difficult in any fashion. We loved every minute of our time in Beijing and your tour made that possible. I will be sure to recommend your services in the future and to use them again when I visit again.

Beijing Mutianyu Great Wall Hiking and
Trout Fishing One Day Tour
Beijing Mutianyu Great Wall Hiking and Trout Fishing One Day Tour Tour Code: BFT-02 Departure: Daily Duration: 1 day Valid: from April to October Pick-up point and time: Your Hotel in Beijing around 8:00am Finishing point and time: Your Hotel in Beijing around 6:00pm Payment Types: Cash, Credit Cards, Wire We speak: English
Itinerary: Pick up from your hotel around 8:00am and drive to the Mutianyu Great Wall. The Wall is located in the Huairou County, about 75km away from downtown Beijing. Mutianyu Great Wall is well known for its pretty surroundings - dense foresty and the rich grass changing colors with the different seasons of a year. Many travellers choose this section of the Wall mainly due to the fact that Mutianyu Great Wall is less crowded than Badaling Great Wall. Cable car is optional. After hiking at the Mutianyu Great Wall, drive long the mountian road to the trout fishing pond at the foot of the mountain. On the way, you are lucky to pass through a natural village. Stop there for a few minutes taking some pictures. Then continue to drive the angling ponds.
Actually the trout ponds are the breeeding ponds more than the fishing ponds! This area is the famous trout breeding centers in Beijing. The ponds linked to each other are quitely located in a valley at the foot of the mountains. On the top of the mountain, you can see the ruined section of the Jiankou Great Wall snaking on its range. Rainbows inhabit both lakes and streams. The water of the trout ponds here comes from the streams of the mountain. Rainbow Trout like colder running water temperatures. There are two kinds of trout - stocked trout and native trout. The trouts here are stocked trout.
You will get a simple fishing rod with fishing line, baits ( worms, minnows, mealworms, etc.). Fishing the stocked tout is more of entertainment than of prefessional fishing. All the ponds here are full of trouts! Don't stand on the shore! Let's start fishing!
When you catch one or two trouts, the local people will weigh the fish. We will pay the fish and get the fish either roasted and sliced raw for your later lunch - yummy! The people will roast the fish in front of you. If you are bold enough, you may try a hand-on experience of the fishing roasting. Beside the trout dish, you will have the chance to try many local varieties of foods and wild leafy vegetables.
After lunch, do a little hiking and then drive back to your hotel in the downtown Beijing.
