The Great Wall is one of the greatest man-made wonders of the world.I just visited it last month. It was full of visitors that day, so I could hardly move about to take photos.The Great Wall was built in the Qin Dynasty and it has a history of more than 2,000 years. It lies in the north of China. The wall is about 6,700 kilometers long and stretches from Shanhaiguan to Jiayuguan. The height of the wall is 7.8 meters, and its width averages out at around 6.5 meters at the base and 5.8 meters at the top. It is said that it's the only building on the earth we can see in space. In my opinion, the Great Wall has become a symbol of the Chinese nation and its culture.
