Three years back the Michael W Travels family visited the Great Wall of China during a long layover (on our way home from Myanmar). Our visit was memorable enough that Lucas still remembers tobogganing down the wall.

While we loved visiting the Great Wall of China, imagine how awesome it would be to  spend the night there!

Airbnb is offering 4 lucky winners a chance to have the first sleepover ever at the Great Wall.

While I’d love to win this prize and spend a night at the Great Wall, I won’t be entering the contest. The dates that the prize must be taken are not good for my schedule since the new school year starts right around then.
