V. Extra Reading

Dating back to the Spring and AutumnPeriod, more walls were put up to defend the borders of the different kingdomsand nomad nationalities in the northern China. The Great Wall had become thedominant fortification for Han people since Qin Dynasty.

In fact, the walls didn't resist theattacks of the dangerous enemies. Ming Dynasty tried their best to renovate thewall, regardless of the expense to humans in effort, time and financialwell-being, but ironically, the leader of Qing not only led his army to crackthe defense of the wall, but also took the emperor Yingzong of Ming Dynastyalive in 1499AC.

At any rate, the Great Wall is just a wallwhich cannot protect a nation. Interestingly, the most prosperous Tang Dynastywas one of dynasties which never renovated the wall.

The Great Wall is the symbol of the Chinesecivilization. It is the fruit of the Chinese nation's wisdom. Now, the GreatWall is the famous scenic spot attracting tens of thousands of tourists.

There is a well-known Chinese saying on thewall, "He who has never been to the Great Wall is not a true man".The Great Wall was selected on the list of the World Heritage in 1987.
