No discussion about Chinese culture is complete without mention of the
Great Wall. Through more than 2,000 years from the seventh century BC to
the 16th century AD, 19 dynasties built parts of the Great Wall, adding
up to over 100,000 kilometers. Three major renovations of the Great Wall
took place in the Qin (221-206 BC), Han (206 BC-AD 220), and Ming
(1368-1644) dynasties. The Great Wall of today is mainly the legacy of
the Ming-dynasty renovations. It meanders for 6,700 kilometers from
Jiayu Pass in the western desert to Shanhai Pass on the eastern
seashore. With many gaps along the Wall, the 600-kilometer-long section
in the northern outskirts of Beijing is the best preserved.
