Jade Factory and Badaling

by Anderson | 08/02/10 | 3 comments

This past weekend I visited a jade factory and the Badaling section of the Great Wall. Badaling is the most popular, tourist-visited section and as you can see in the pictures below it is packed with people.

The jade factory was interesting, but it was mostly focused on selling you jade jewelry. We saw about 10% factory and 90% shopping area. Still, a lot of the stuff was pretty cool. A couple of us managed to get some raw jade from one of the workers, so we got a nice souvenir without having to buy some of the overpriced jewelry.

Check out the photos below.
