Today we are going to visit the Great Wall. The Great Wall, symbolizing China’s ancient civilization. Is one of the world’s most renowned projects. It is the longest defensive wall in the world. In 1987 ,UNESCO put the Great Wall on the list of world cultural heritage.
Construction of Great Wall started from seventh century BC. It began from the Spring-Autumn and Warring States Periods .At that time there were many kingdoms under the Zhou Dynasty. Each kingdom built its own wall around its territory for self-protection. The earliest Great Wall emerged in the Chinese history was the wall of Qi and Chu. In 221BC,emperor Qingshihuang defeated the other six kingdoms and unified China. He ordered to link up the separated walls and extended them. It started from Lin Tao in the west to Liao Kong in the east. Formed a 7000 kilometers long wall. This became the first climax of building the Great Wall in Chinese history.
The second climax of construction on the Great Wall is Han Dynasty. For increasing strategic defense and for protecting the newly opened silk roads. The 20 thousand LiHan Great Wall wad constructed. It can from * in the west to LiaoDong in the east and became the longest Great Wall in Chinese history. Han dynasty period was the second climax of construction the Great Wall.
In the Ming Dynasty from the first Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang,a great number of defensive soldiers were dispatched to the northern border to rebuild the wall. The Great Wall in the Ming Dynasty had been consolidated ,countless fortresses, watch towers .beacon towers had been built. It started from hushan (tiger hill) at the bank of Yalu river. Dan dong Liao Ning province to Jia Yu Guan pass, Gansu province in the west ,totally 7000 kilometers. It went through the present day Liaoning ,Hebei, Tianjin, Beijing, Shanxi, Inner *, Shaanxi, Ningxia and Gansu nine provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities.
The Great Wall is formed by body of the wall, strategic pass of the wall, wall platform and beacon towers both inside and outside the wall. The average height of the wall is 7.5 meters, the average width of the base is 6.5 meters, and average width on the surface is about 6 meters. On the surface of the wall, five horsemen can ride abreast 10 people can stand abreast. Inside the wall, in a short interval, there is an archway with stone steps leading to the surface of the wall. Before the Ming great wall, there are three to four layers of bricks. On the top layer are square bricks filled up with lime between the joints it is too smooth on the surface of the wall for the wild grass to grow. On the top surface of the wall there are two walls on both sides. The inner one is parapet, which is about one meter high; the outer one is a nearly two-meter high battlements wall. On the battlements wall are battlements and buttresses successively. On every buttress, there are holes for shooting and observation. There is also drainage ditch and gargoyles. etc.
The main architectural structures of the Great Wall are watchtowers and platforms. Watch towers can be directly used to shoot the enemies who are climbing up the wall, and they can also be used to store weapons and accommodate soldiers for the night. Generally speaking, the watchtowers are two stories high: some are even three stories high. On all sides of the outer section of the watchtower, there are four windows. The top story has rooms for housing soldiers. Platforms are built on the surface of the wall, they are wide enough for soldiers to train and stand guard.
A beacon tower is also called a pile of fire, beacon fire or wolf dung tower. Beacon towers are usually built on the summit of mountains or at the turn of mountains. Most of them are independent architectures separate from the Great Wall. They are used for sending out military information. Once the enemy came to attack, bonfires were lit to send messages. Smoke was made during daytime and fire at night.
The road we are driving on is called Guangou Valley. Over 800 years ago it used to be one of the famous ‘Eight View of Yanjing’ with lush greenery trees and plants. Now you can see the pass tower-the Juyong Pass. Its name originated from the Qin Dynasty when *ers were transferred here from the war. Above the gate there is a plague, which reads: ’the first Magnificent Pass under Heaven’. Along the 20-kilometer-long valley there are four passes. From south to north were the Xiaguan, Juyong pass, Shangguan and Badaling Pass. because those passes are situated between high mountains with only one road leading to Beijing, it has great military significance.
In the center of the Juyong Pass, there is a massive marble terrace called ‘The Cloud Terrace’ which was built in the Yuan Dynasty in 1345. the cloud terrace covers and area of 310 square meters. It used to be called Crossing Street Dagoba. Under the terrace is the gateway. It is a half-hexagonal arch structure carved with the images of lions, elephants, fabulous animals, golden wing birds in bas-relief, representing five animals for Buddha to ride. The inner roof of the arch is covered with mandala patterns and Buddha images surrounded by flowers, 2.215 pieces in total, all free examples of Yuan Dynasty craftsmanship. There are also Buddhist scriptures inscribed in six different national languages.
Badaling is the best-preserved part of the Great Wall, and is 75 kilometers northwest of Beijing, this part of the Great Wall was rebuilt in the Ming Dynasty. It was built along the Jundu Mountain and Guangou Valley. Now we are approaching the Jundu Mountain. On the right side, we can see the railway. That’s the railway from Beijing to Zhangjiakou. This is the first railway line in China designed and presided over by the Chinese engineer Zhan Tianyou. This part of the railway was built on a steep mountain slope, so the construction process was extremely difficult.
Now we have arrived at Badaling. Bada in Chinese means convenient transportation to all directions, so it used to be the most important place in the defense of Beijing.
Badaling is situated at the very top of the mountain to the north of Guangou Valley. There is a narrow path leading to the top of the two precipitous mountains. The Badaling Great Wall is built in between two mountains and was constructed to be a communications center.
Badaling Great Wall is formed with the body of the wall, the strategic pass of the wall watch tower, flood water drainage, the wall platform and with beacon towers both inside and outside the wall. This section of the wall is 12kilometers long, with 24watch towers and 4 wall platforms it is the best constructed , most typical and consolidated section of the Wall.
Outer town of Juyon is the inscription written on the east gate of Badaling in the 18th year of Jiajing(1539), which means there was another town outside Juyong Pass, Great Wall Key to the north gate’ is an inscription written on the west gate of Badaling in the 10th year of Wanli(1582). The allusion has something to do with a famous Kou Zhun. It is said that an envoy of the state of Liao passed by Daming of Song Dynasty. He couldn’t figure it out why Kou Zhun (Song Dynasty prime minister) was there .Kou Zhun said’ there is nothing to do in the court but I have to be here.’ So later on people called the key to the north gate and important town in the north. Badaling is like a key to the gate of Beijing. Once the key is unlocked ,the gate of Beijing is open. East of Badaling lays a big rock called Looking-Toward Beijing Rock. it is said that Empress Dowager Cixi passed here on her way fleeing to the north as the Allied Forces of Eight Powers were advancing on Beijing in 1900.
Look! There are some watchtowers in front of us. Let’s take a photo here for memory .
Now we all have made it and we have all become real men and heroes!
In the north of China, there lies a 6,700-kilometer-long (4,161-mile-long) ancient wall. Now well-known as the Great Wall of China, it starts at the Jiayuguan Pass of Gansu Province in the west and ends at the Shanhaiguan Pass of Hebei Province in the east. As one of the Eight Wonders in the world, the Great Wall of China has become the symbol of the Chinese nation and its culture.
Lots of beautiful legends and stories about the Great Wall took place following along the construction, and since that time these stories have spread around the country. Those that happened during construction are abundant, such as Meng Jiangnu‘s story and the legend of the Jiayuguan Pass. Meng Jiangnu‘s story is the most famous and widely spread of all the legends about the Great Wall. The story happened during the Qin Dynasty (221BC-206BC). It tells of how Meng Jiangnu‘s bitter weeping made a section of the Great Wall collapse. Meng Jiangnu‘s husband Fan Qiliang was caught by federal officials and sent to build the Great Wall. Meng Jiangnu heard nothing from him after his departure, so she set out to look for him. Unfortunately, by the time she reached the great wall, she discovered that her husband had already died. Hearing the bad news, she cried her heart out. Her howl caused the collapse of a part of the Great Wall. This story indicates that the Great Wall is the production of tens of thousands of Chinese commoners.
Another legend about the Jiayuguan Pass tells of a workman named Yi Kaizhan in the Ming Dynasty (1368BC-1644BC) who was proficient in arithmetic. He calculated that it would need 99,999 bricks to build the Jiayuguan Pass. The supervisor did not believe him and said if they miscalculated by even one brick, then all the workmen would be punished to do hard work for three years. After the completion of the project, one brick was left behind the Xiwong city gate. The supervisor was happy at the sight of the brick and ready to punish them. However Yi Kaizhan said with deliberation that the brick was put there by a supernatural being to fix the wall. A tiny move would cause the collapse of the wall. Therefore the brick was kept there and never moved. It can still be found there today on the tower of the Jiayuguan Pass.
In addition to the above-mentioned stories about the construction of the Great Wall, there are also plenty of stories about current scenic spots. A famous one is the legend of the Beacon Tower. This story happened during the Western Zhou Dynasty (11th century BC-711 BC). King You had a queen named Bao Si, who was very pretty. King You liked her very much, however Bao Si never smiled. An official gave a suggestion that setting the beacon tower on fire would frighten the King‘s subjects, and might make the queen smile. King You liked the idea. The subjects were fooled and Bao Si smiled at the sight of the chaos. Later enemies invaded Western Zhou, King You set the beacon tower on fire to ask for help. No subjects came to help because they had been fooled once before. Thus, King Zhou was killed by the enemy and Western Zhou came to an end.
Beautiful stories and legends about the Great Wall help to keep alive Chinese history and culture. In each dynasty after the building of the Great Wall, many more stories were created and spread.
