The Great Wall of the is the longest of all walls, from Mamitu near to LiaodongKing Zheng of conquered the last of his opponents and unified China as the of the ('Qin Shi Huang') in 221 BC. Intending to impose centralized rule and prevent the resurgence of feudal lords, he ordered the destruction of the sections of the walls that divided his empire among the former states. To position the empire against the people from the north, however, he ordered the building of new walls to connect the remaining fortifications along the empire's northern frontier.
'Build and move on' was a central guiding principle in constructing the wall, implying that the Chinese were not erecting a permanently fixed border. Transporting the large quantity of materials required for construction was difficult, so builders always tried to use local resources. Stones from the mountains were used over mountain ranges, while was used for construction in the plains. There are no surviving historical records indicating the exact length and course of the Qin walls. Most of the ancient walls have eroded away over the centuries, and very few sections remain today. The human cost of the construction is unknown, but it has been estimated by some authors that hundreds of thousands, if not up to a million, workers died building the Qin wall.
Later, the, the and the all repaired, rebuilt, or expanded sections of the Great Wall at great cost to defend themselves against northern invaders. The and dynasties did not undertake any significant effort in the region. Non-Han dynasties also built their border walls: the -ruled, the -ruled, and the -established, who ruled vast territories over Northern China throughout centuries, all constructed defensive walls but those were located much to the north of the other Great Walls as we know it, within China's province of and in itself.
The extent of the and its wallsThe Great Wall concept was revived again under the in the 14th century, and following the Ming army's defeat by the in the. The Ming had failed to gain a clear upper hand over the tribes after successive battles, and the long-drawn conflict was taking a toll on the empire. The Ming adopted a new strategy to keep the nomadic tribes out by constructing walls along the northern border of China. Acknowledging the Mongol control established in the, the wall followed the desert's southern edge instead of incorporating the bend of the.Unlike the earlier fortifications, the Ming construction was stronger and more elaborate due to the use of bricks and stone instead of rammed earth. Up to 25,000 watchtowers are estimated to have been constructed on the wall.
As continued periodically over the years, the Ming devoted considerable resources to repair and reinforce the walls. Sections near the Ming capital of Beijing were especially strong. Between 1567 and 1570 also repaired and reinforced the wall, faced sections of the ram-earth wall with bricks and constructed 1,200 watchtowers from Shanhaiguan Pass to Changping to warn of approaching Mongol raiders. During the 1440s–1460s, the Ming also built a so-called 'Liaodong Wall'. Similar in function to the Great Wall (whose extension, in a sense, it was), but more basic in construction, the Liaodong Wall enclosed the agricultural heartland of the province, protecting it against potential incursions by Jurched-Mongol Oriyanghan from the northwest and the from the north. While stones and tiles were used in some parts of the Liaodong Wall, most of it was in fact simply an earth dike with moats on both sides.Towards the end of the Ming, the Great Wall helped defend the empire against the invasions that began around 1600.
Even after the loss of all of, the Ming army held the heavily fortified, preventing the Manchus from conquering the Chinese heartland. The Manchus were finally able to cross the Great Wall in 1644, after Beijing had already fallen to 's rebels. Before this time, the Manchus had crossed the Great Wall multiple times to raid, but this time it was for conquest.
The gates at Shanhai Pass were opened on May 25 by the commanding Ming general, who formed an alliance with the Manchus, hoping to use the Manchus to expel the rebels from Beijing. The Manchus quickly seized Beijing, and eventually defeated both the rebel-founded and the, establishing the rule over all of China.Under Qing rule, China's borders extended beyond the walls and into the empire, so constructions on the Great Wall were discontinued.
On the other hand, the so-called, following a line similar to that of the Ming Liaodong Wall, was constructed by the Qing rulers in Manchuria. Its purpose, however, was not defense but rather to prevent Han Chinese migration into Manchuria. Foreign accounts. The Great Wall in 1907None of the who visited China or Mongolia in the 13th and 14th centuries, such as, and, mentioned the Great Wall.The North African traveler, who also visited China during the c.
1346, had heard about China's Great Wall, possibly before he had arrived in China. He wrote that the wall is 'sixty days' travel' from Zeitun (modern ) in his travelogue. He associated it with the mentioned in the, which (commonly associated with ) was said to have erected to protect people near the land of the rising sun from the savages of. However, Ibn Battuta could find no one who had either seen it or knew of anyone who had seen it, suggesting that although there were remnants of the wall at that time, they were not significant.Soon after Europeans reached Ming China by ship in the early 16th century, accounts of the Great Wall started to circulate in Europe, even though no European was to see it for another century.
Possibly one of the earliest European descriptions of the wall and of its significance for the defense of the country against the ' (i.e. Mongols) may be the one contained in 's 1563 Asia. Other early accounts in Western sources include those of, and Bishop, the latter in 1585 describing it as a 'superbious and mightie work' of architecture, though he had not seen it. In 1559, in his work 'A Treatise of China and the Adjoyning Regions', Gaspar da Cruz offers an early discussion of the Great Wall. Perhaps the first recorded instance of a European actually entering China via the Great Wall came in 1605, when the Portuguese Jesuit brother reached the northwestern from India. Early European accounts were mostly modest and empirical, closely mirroring contemporary Chinese understanding of the Wall, although later they slid into hyperbole, including the erroneous but ubiquitous claim that the Ming Walls were the same ones that were built by the First Emperor in the 3rd century BC.When China opened its borders to foreign merchants and visitors after its defeat in the and, the Great Wall became a main attraction for tourists. The of the later 19th century further enhanced the reputation and the mythology of the Great Wall.Course.
Great Wall of China in tourist seasonBefore the use of bricks, the Great Wall was mainly built from rammed earth, stones, and wood. During the Ming, however, bricks were heavily used in many areas of the wall, as were materials such as tiles, and stone. The size and weight of the bricks made them easier to work with than earth and stone, so construction quickened.
Additionally, bricks could bear more weight and endure better than rammed earth. Stone can hold under its own weight better than brick, but is more difficult to use. Consequently, stones cut in rectangular shapes were used for the foundation, inner and outer, and gateways of the wall. Line the uppermost portion of the vast majority of the wall, with defensive gaps a little over 30 cm (12 in) tall, and about 23 cm (9.1 in) wide.
From the parapets, guards could survey the surrounding land. Communication between the army units along the length of the Great Wall, including the ability to call reinforcements and warn of enemy movements, was of high importance. Signal towers were built upon hill tops or other high points along the wall for their visibility. Wooden gates could be used as a trap against those going through.
Barracks, stables, and armories were built near the wall's inner surface. The Great Wall of China atWhile portions north of Beijing and near tourist centers have been preserved and even extensively renovated, in many other locations the Wall is in disrepair. The wall sometimes provided a source of stones to build houses and roads. Sections of the Wall are also prone to and, while inscribed bricks were pilfered and sold on the market for up to 50. Parts have been destroyed to make way of construction or mining.
A 2012 report by the states that 22% of the Ming Great Wall has disappeared, while 1,961 km (1,219 mi) of wall have vanished. More than 60 km (37 mi) of the wall in province may disappear in the next 20 years, due to erosion from. In some places, the height of the wall has been reduced from more than 5 m (16 ft 5 in) to less than 2 m (6 ft 7 in). Various square lookout towers that characterize the most famous images of the wall have disappeared. Many western sections of the wall are, rather than brick and stone, and thus are more susceptible to erosion. In 2014 a portion of the wall near the border of Liaoning and Hebei province was repaired with concrete. The work has been much criticized.
Visibility from space From the MoonThe notion that the Wall can be seen from the moon, (385,000 km, 239,000 miles) is a well-known but implausible myth.One of the earliest known references to the myth that the Great Wall can be seen from the appears in a letter written in 1754 by the English antiquary. Stukeley wrote that, 'This mighty wall of four score miles 130 km in length is only exceeded by the Chinese Wall, which makes a considerable figure upon the, and may be discerned at the Moon.' The claim was also mentioned by in 1895 where he states 'besides its age it enjoys the reputation of being the only work of human hands on the globe visible from the Moon.' The issue of was prominent in the late 19th century and may have led to the belief that long, thin objects were visible from space. The claim that the Great Wall is visible from the moon also appears in 1932's strip.The claim that the Great Wall is visible from the moon has been debunked many times (The apparent width of the Great Wall from the Moon would be the same as that of a human hair viewed from 3 km (2 mi) away ), but is still ingrained in popular culture.
From low Earth orbit. A satellite image of a section of the Great Wall in northern Shanxi, running diagonally from lower left to upper right and not to be confused with the more prominent river running from upper left to lower right. The region pictured is 12 km × 12 km (7 mi × 7 mi).A more controversial question is whether the Wall is visible from (an altitude of as little as 160 km (100 mi)). Claims that it is barely visible, and only under nearly perfect conditions; it is no more conspicuous than many other man-made objects.Veteran U.S. Astronaut has stated: 'At Earth orbit of 100 to 200 miles 160 to 320 km high, the Great Wall of China is, indeed, visible to the naked eye.' , Science Officer aboard the, adds that, 'it's less visible than a lot of other objects. And you have to know where to look.'
In October 2003, Chinese astronaut stated that he had not been able to see the Great Wall of China. In response, the (ESA) issued a press release reporting that from an orbit between 160 and 320 km (100 and 200 mi), the Great Wall is visible to the naked eye., a Chinese-American astronaut, took a photograph from the that shows the wall. It was so indistinct that the photographer was not certain he had actually captured it. Based on the photograph, the later reported that the Great Wall can be seen from 'space' with the naked eye, under favorable viewing conditions, if one knows exactly where to look.
