There is a old word in China "Not a hero if you don't arrived to the Great Wall". Though this is just a old word and doesn't make sense. But the Great Wall is really great.
First, I think it is the biggest military project in the world, or maybe in the history if you don't agree. The length of the Great Wall is 6300 kilometers, yes, it is. Just according to the length, it has been a huge project. And also, it built after 2200 years ago. At that time, there are no camion, no all modern equipment in the word, all the work must be done by hands. In addition, many part of the Great Wall be built in mountain. This increase the difficulty with no doubt.
Now, the Great Wall has been a well-known tourist attraction. If you arrived to the Great Wall, you will see many many foreigners over there. I am working in a foreign company in Beijing, and almost all of my foreigner colleagues have gone to the Great Wall. I have gone to the Great Wall for two times, one is in spring and another is in autumn. In the spring, all beautiful flowers in your eyes around the Great Wall, great sight. And in the autumn, you can see pretty red maple leaf on the mountain around the Great Wall. If have time, I want to go another time in the winter, I think it will be good too.
Have you arrived to the Great Wall? Do you like it? Do you want to go to China to see it in the future?

Not bad, I have gone to the Great Wall, so beautiful sight, I like it.
But I must say that the people is too many so that I must walk in the crowd, this point reduce the funning.

Yes, I am in Beijing. Guangxi is also one of my most like province. So beautiful. No matter when my wife see the scene of Guangxi on TV, she will speak turgidly:"I like there, I want to go there, when we go to there?". So, if we go there in the future, first contact you. aha.

I wish to see all the 7 wonders of the world including the Great wall of China. They are the Architectural marvels and one cannot afford to miss them in their life time. I have heared a lot about the Great wall of China and I hope I see them soon.
