The Great Wall, once used as a wartime defense,“like a dragon tail” from eastern China to western, spanning some 5,500 miles. The Great Wall of China is one of the greatest sights in the world — the longest wall in the world, an awe-inspiring feat of ancient defensive architecture. Its winding path over rugged country and steep mountains takes in some great scenery.
