The Great Wall of China in Beijing is one of the most iconic and historically significant structures in the world. This ancient fortification, which stretches over 13,000 miles across northern China, was originally built to protect Chinese states and empires from various nomadic groups and military incursions. Constructed primarily during the Ming Dynasty, the sections of the wall near Beijing, such as Badaling and Mutianyu, are particularly well-preserved and popular with tourists. The wall is an architectural marvel, featuring watchtowers, battlements, and beacon towers, and it offers stunning views of the surrounding landscapes.
