The Great Wall is one of the four great
wonders of the world, which is a series of
stone and earthen fortification in China,
built rebuilt and maintained between 5
th
century BC and the 16 century to
th
protect the northern borders of the
Chines Empire during the rule of
successive Dynasties. The Bandaging
Great Wall is the essence of the ‘Ten
Thousand Li Wall’.
In Chinese history, Beijing was not only
one of the ancient capitals, but also
one of the most strategic cities in the
north. To defend their territory, many rules have actively ordered to
build Great Wall here. The Great Wall in Beijing totals 370 miles. Those
from Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), the last dynasty engaged in Great Wall
construction, amount to 350 miles. It’s very raining, we were climbing
up to the 4 guard house of the Great Wall and we got photo. At 3.30
th
p.m. We left the Great Wall of China.
