1. The Longest Wall in the World - The Great Wall of ChinaThe Great Wall, also known as the Great Wall of Ten Thousand Miles, is an ancient Chinese military defense structure, consisting of a tall, strong and continuous wall with a large number of cities, barriers, pavilions and markers. The construction of the Great Wall has a long history, dating back to the Western Zhou Dynasty, when the First Emperor of Qin unified the Six Kingdoms and vigorously repaired the Great Wall, resulting in the spectacular sight of the Great Wall of 10,000 miles. The Ming Dynasty was the last dynasty to repair the Great Wall, and most of the Great Wall we see now was built and perfected at this time.
The Great Wall is mainly located in 15 provinces, cities and autonomous regions of China, and the Great Wall of the Qin and Han dynasties and early periods exceeds 10,000 km, while the total length of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty is 8,851.8 km. The existing Great Wall cultural relics proper include Great Wall walls, trenches, boundary trenches, monolithic buildings, customs forts, related facilities and other kinds of remains, totaling more than 43,000 places. The Great Wall is listed as the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units and world cultural heritage.
