Great Wall Of China




Today, I would like to share something that I facinate about since I am a small kid. That is the Great Wall of China, this is the only man made structure which could be seen from Mars or Moon and also one of the WONDERS of the world. As you may notice, my blog is call coolwonderworld so it is only make sense if I post something related to it. Everytime when I watch movies like "300", "TROY", "LOTR", "CHINESE ANCIENT WAR MOVIE(can't remember the name...hahaha)", KING ARTHUR" and etc, don't you feel amazed by the tactic they use during the real war time, don't you feel curious how on earth during those ancient time they are able to built such facinating building and machine. Recently, when I watch the movie "300" almost all the time in my head I was saying "that was COOL". So, sit back and take a short ride with me to one of the Wonder of the world.

Great Wall of China

Fact
It stretches across the mountains of northern, one of the existing megastructure and the world's longest man-made structure, stretching over 6,352 km (3,948 miles).

History
Construction of the Great Wall first began in the seventh century BC.The Wall was built to defend his new unified country against invading nomads, Qin Shi Huangdi built and began the first long wall in China. In Chinese history, the wall were built by three dynasties: They are Qin, Han nad Ming dynaties.
More than 800,000 soldiers, peasants and prisoners worked for 10 years to build it(according to Chinese legend). From years to years, the wall fell into ruins and other walls were built by other emperors to keep out invaders wherever they appeared.
There was never a master plan for building this wall which explain why the construction across northern China continued in this way for 200 years( probably 6,352 could explain that too...haha).

I know it is a bit brief but I don't mind if you dudes and babes can drop me some comments.

Stay Cool!!!
