Features: Around 220 BC, the First Emperor of a unified China, Qin Shi Huang, connected some previouslyly existing defensive walls into a complete defensive system to resist invasions from the north. During the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), it was further expanded, making the Great Wall the world's longest military structure. Its cultural and artistic value is comparable to its historical and strategic importance.
