The Great Wall

U-BEST Great Wall DVD can be viewed with English or Chinese language tracks and English or Chinese subtitles. One hour and 22 minutes. Many good shots from a wide variety of locations, but some errors and misinformation.

Nathan Gray offers a companion DVD to augment his book, First Pass Under Heaven. It's a very interesting and well-done DVD and I recommend it to anyone who is interested in hiking on the Great Wall.

The site offers previews of both the book and the DVD.

Global Treasures Great Wall The Great Wall of China DVD

First of all, this video was less than 10 minutes long. Second, it was filled with misinformation. (Confirmed visible from the moon? Ridiculous!) Third, all video was shot at only three locations: Badaling, Mutianyu, and Jinshanling. Only once did they attempt to identify the location: Badaling, but while Jinshanling was being shown!

A nice video with a wide variety of still and motion photography including some excellent aerial photography. Information is basic but accurate. Purchased at the Jiayuguan museum. Probably made locally; no ISBN, ISRC, or UPC numbers.
