The Great Wall Beijing tour is enjoyment beyond expectations History One of the Seven Wonders of the World and a spectacular ancient, defensive, architectural piece of art created by man is the “Great Wall of China”, whose excellence is one to behold. Spread wide across, about 6000 Km, covering the whole northern part of China, it was initially constructed with the motive of protecting the country from the foreign invaders like “The Eurasian Steppe” and providing a perfect stage for trade purposes along the ‘silk route’. It has a series of forts and watch towers. This was built by different dynasties at different periods but largely by the Qin Dynasty (221B.C. to 206B.C), Han Dynasty (206B.C.to 220A.D.), and Ming Dynasty (1368A.D.to 1644A.D.).
Places opened for tourists:Even though some of sections of the Wall have been destroyed due to natural calamities, the Wall still has not lost its magnificence. The Beijing Great Wall now has 8 sections that are open to the tourists and have been renovated and restored, whereas some parts of it have been left untouched and wild. These 8 sections consist of two passes, i.e., Juyongguan Pass Great Wall and Gubeikou Great Wall and six sections, that are Badaling, Mutianyu, Simatai, Jinshanling, Huangyaguan,
Jiankou. There are also two sections that are close and can be visited overnight from Beijing. They are Shanghaiguan and Huangyaguan.

Can the Wall be really seen from the space? The total length of The Great Wall is approximately 21,196 km. Due to its gigantic size, it was once believed that it could be seen from the space. This was verified by several astronauts, which was though later on proved to be a wrong theory by Yang Liwei, China’s 1st astronaut to visit outer space declared that the Wall although is humongous and is incomparable to anything ever constructed, can’t be seen from the space for certain; also in a conversation with NASA, Neil
Armstrong, the 1st man to ever set foot on the moon, had clarified this misconception that many had.
