WONDERS OF THE WORLD THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA

The Great Wall of China stretched for more than 13,000 miles, including all of its branches and fortifications. As many as 25,000 watchtowers studded the wall, which was primarily designed to keep out Mongol raiders and other nomads from the north. The wall was begun as early as 2600 years ago and was regularly extended, destroyed, rebuilt, and restored over the next 25-plus centuries. Most of what still exists today is about 400 to 600 years old, dating from the Ming Dynasty.
