The Great Wall of China
The Great Wall of China was built by Emperor Shi Huang Ti in the third century BCE to protect the northern borders of China from the attacks of the nomadic tribes. It is 2,900 km long and 8 m high and 7 m wide. The wall starts from the eastern sea, runs across mountains, deserts, plains, and reaches Tibet. There are 10,000 watch towers that are constructed at every 150 meters or so. From these towers, soldiers kept watch on enemies. The Great Wall of China is also recognized as one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Interestingly enough, the Great Wall of China is the one and only man-made structure that is even visible from the moon.
