The Great Wall of China History and Wallpapers



THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA

The Great Wall of China is a series fortifications made of stone, brick, temped earth, wood, and other materials, generally built along an east-to-west line across the historical northern border of China in part to protect the Chinese Empire.
       The history state that several walls were being built as early as the 7th Century BC in China, these, later joined together and made bigger , stronger and unified are now collectively referred to as the Great Wall.
       In a history a comprehensive survey has concluded that the ming walls measures 8,850 km (5,500 miles) and the Great Wall of China is made up of 6,259 km sections of actual wall, 359 km of trenches and 2,232 km of natural defensive barriers such as hills and rivers.
      The another archaeological survey found that the entire wall with all of its branches measures out to be 21,196 km (13,171 miles),it was stated in history.
      NASA claims that Great Wall of China is barely visible. The wall is a Max 9.1m(30ft)wide, to see the Great China wall from the moon would require spatial resolution 17,000 times better than normal (20/20)vision and the NASA also produced the wallpapers or photos of Great China Wall and published the aerial view wallpapers to media and some other magazines.
      Unsurprisingly, no lunar as truant has ever claimed to have seen the China Great Wall from the moon. The history state that, more than 60 km of the Wall in Gansu province may disappear in the next 20 years due to erosion from Sandstorms. Many western sections of the Wall are Constructed from mud, rather than brick and stone, and thus are more susceptible to erosion.
      A 30 meters section of the Wall in north China Hebei province collapsed after days of continuous heavy rains in August,2012 and it was stated by its history.
      The Great Wall of China is one of the cornerstones of Chinese culture and it has not only ranked on the list of the 7 wonders of the World but it is the most recognized land mark in all of China.
      Great China Wall is a one of the most reserved structures in all of the World and also is one of the most visited site in all of China let alone Asia and visitors have been catching Great China Wall photos and wallpapers and  it is one of the largest Military Walls in all of history and served to protect the early Chinese empire from hostile enemies.
       The history state that, Great wall of China has been around for nearly 2.5 thousand years and still stands today as a wonderful architectural feat. The Great China Wall has a another history and it was constructed to protect tribes again one another and it was later built up by the Ming Dynasty for purpose of unity and protection.
        The story of the Great China Wall, that is the longest man-made structure in the World and ever built started almost 2000 years ago. In 2008, there were over 41.8 million foreign visitors to the Great Wall of China and it is 25 feet high in some places and ranges from 15-30 feet wide. It was part of Chinese strategy of preventing mass invasion.
