The Great Wall of China
Our country One of the great projects of ancient times. It was first built in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period (770-476 BC), and the surviving ones were built in the Ming Dynasty. It starts from Jiayuguan in the west and ends at Hushan Pass on the Yalu River in Dandong in the east, spanning Gansu, Ningxia, Shaanxi, Shanxi, Mongolia, Hebei, Liaoning and other places. There are checkpoints at dangerous points or traffic hubs along the route, such as Shanhaiguan, Juyongguan, Niangziguan, etc. It's called the Great Wall for short. The Great Wall is the only three-dimensional structure ever visible from space. It is not easy to build with modern technology
but it is really rare that our country can build it in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States era more than 2,000 years ago. The building materials of the Great Wall were sourced locally and vary from place to place. During the Han Dynasty, the Great Wall was built with mud and reeds. The size of the Great Wall also varies. In Juyongguan area, for example, it is about 8.5 meters high, 8.5 meters wide at the bottom, and 5 meters wide at the top.
There is a fortress (equivalent to a city tower) every 70 to 100 meters, about 12.3 meters high. Most of the fortresses are of one level, and two or three levels are placed in key locations.
The eastern section of the Great Wall passes through mountains or hilly areas, and was known in ancient times as "cutting mountains and cutting off ancient areas" and "using dangers to control blockades." The color is desolate. If you climb to Yanmen Pass, Juyong Pass, Gu
Beikou or Shanhaiguan and look at the great situation of our country's mountains and rivers in the distance, you will be impressed by the difficulties of our ancestors in opening up territories and expand their territory, and arouse unlimited ambitions.
