Great Wall of China

The fact that the Great Wall of China is visible from outer space as well, gives you an idea of how huge the entire structure would be. Stretching through mountains, deserts, and grasslands, Great Wall of China runs from East to West of China covering a total distance of 5,500 miles.

The Great Wall of China is not at all a continuous wall albeit is a collection of short walls that often follow the crest of hills on the southern edge of the Mongolian plain.

The wall took nearly an entire century to build. Made by different emperors, the wall exhibits various styles and different levels of grandeur. The most stunning of all is the wall built by Emperor Qin Shi Huang between the year 220-206 B.C. The Great Wall of China was one of the seven wonders of the medieval world and continues to be a part of the new seven wonders of the world.

Through western contact with China from the 17th century onwards the legend of the Great Wall of China spread across continents snowballing its popularity. The Great Wall of China is thronged by thousands of tourists every day.
