tHE gREAT waLL OF chiNA

One time I will be there


Everybody in this world had their own dream and same goes to me,I also dream of to be at a place that I dreamed before.Great Wall of China is the place that I wish to go future.It was amazing place and cannot be described through photo only.The Great Wall of China is a series of stone and earthen fortifications in northern China.It was built to protect the northern borders of the Chinese Empire against instrusions by various nomadic groups.Last year,my cousin had a trip to this place and I am the first person that asked him about The Great Wall of China.He said to me that the place was so amazing and cannot be imagine if we do not go there to see what The Great Wall of China is about.


Several of the wall there,have been built since the 5th century BC and maintained through 16th century.One of the most famous is the wall built between 220–206 BC by the first Emperor of China, Qin Shi Huang. Little of that wall remains; the majority of the existing wall was built during the Ming Dynasty.This place had impressive my cousin because of the old technology can build the sophisticated wall in the world. The most comprehensive archaeological survey, using advanced technologies, has concluded that the entire Great Wall, with all of its branches, stretches for 8,851.8 km .This is made up of 6,259.6 km sections of actual wall, 359.7 km of trenches and 2,232.5 km  of natural defensive barriers such as hills and rivers.

I really hope that one time I can see this place in front of my eye and I wish to  explore more about this amazing place.By now,I will save my money just to ensure that my old dream will be as reality dream to me and the moment I cannot forgot forever.
