The Great Wall of China, one of the greatest wonders of the
world, was listed as a World Heritage by UNESCO in 1987.
Just like a gigantic dragon, the Great Wall winds up and
down across deserts, grasslands, mountains and plateaus,
stretching approximately 8,851.8 kilometers (5,500 miles)
from east to west of China. With a history of more than 2000
years, some of the sections are now in ruins or have
disappeared. However, it is still one of the most appealing
attractions all around the world owing to its architectural
grandeur and historical significance.
