Question

I don't want to spent days in hotels or take a flight, I would rather want to make a day visit to the great wall of china and some other places in Beijing and get back to SH during that night. How long will it take the fastest train? and how much does it cost? night to go, a day to visit, and again a night to back to SH. Can I do that? and do I have to pay to visit the wall?
