Why is the Great Wall in Inner Mongolia so famous?

Perhaps in everyone's impression, the Great Wall will have fortifications such as beacon towers and platforms. This is mainly the impression created by tourism now. The Great Wall in the scenic spots we have seen has been repaired, and more TV dramas are being rendered in this direction. In fact, when it comes to the real role of the Great Wall, it is just a courtyard wall of two big families, namely, the farming people build more, and the nomadic people are responsible for dismantling it. This is also the fact that Inner Mongolia has the most Great Wall resources.

Although we are all lamenting that the majestic Great Wall of Jin (built by Jin to resist the Mongols led by Genghis Khan) has been demolished, the significance is another interpretation from the perspective of ecological restoration and exchange of needed goods.

We know that the Great Wall is made of natural moats as fortifications. Through man-made changes, it has become easier to defend and harder to attack. Of course, it also has the function of keeping watch and standing guard. Generally, it is built with local materials. For example, the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty near Shahukou is mostly made of earth, because there are not many bricks and stones here, and the soil is not suitable for burning bricks. Therefore, the Great Wall of Ming Dynasty near Qingshui River, no matter how magnificent, is.

If you are lucky enough to have been to the Great Wall of Qin and Han Dynasties in Bayannaoer City, the Great Wall there was also built along the mountains. It is said that Qin Shihuang sent Meng Tian and his son Fu Su to build it together, which is more like a "dry base" made of local materials. Nowadays, in rural areas in the west, there is such a custom that most of their livestock pens are made of stones. I don't know if it was from that time.

Of course, in the Qin and Han Dynasties, Juyan Gusai and Jilusai were also built with stones. In the past, these were actually the "courtyard walls" that separated the exchanges between the two ethnic groups, and then troops were sent to guard them in important positions, trying to stop the northern nomads from coming.

Some people say that repairing the Great Wall is a waste of people and money, so it is better to kiss each other. Especially in the Qing Dynasty, the role of kissing was brought to the extreme. The Princess House, Wang Yefu and various temples were built on the grassland, and everyone lived in peace and mutual benefit, so these courtyard walls were no longer needed. Just like many parks and green spaces now, which used to have fences, they are now opening.
