Seven Wonders of the world which has fascinated the minds of people in the
world. The Great Wall is an ultimate tourist destination for sightseeing.

There is a common term used by the Chinese called “Wan Li
Chang Cheng” which defines as “ Wall of 10,000 Li” (10,000 Li = 5,000km). There
were three main Chinese dynasties that contributed to the construction of the
Great Wall: first, the Qin from 221-207 B.C, then the Han from 206 B.C- 220 A.D
and the Ming from 1368-1644 A.D. Their common purpose was to stop the
“barbaric” Huns in the North from invading the Chinese borders. However,
millions of people labored on the Great Wall and many died while working.
Amazing sharing friend! I really like your blog. It is full of informative. It will be very helpful for me. Great wall is the famous and amazing landmark in China. It is the major tourist attraction for visiting. My uncle visited in this place before bus tours from boston to washington dc with his family. It is one of the greatest wonders of the world. It is a series of fortifications made of stone, brick, tamped earth, wood and other materials. The main purpose to build the Great Wall have included border controls, allowing the imposition of duties on goods transported along the Silk Road, regulation or encouragement of trade and the control of immigration and emigration.
