If you go to China you must visit the great Wall of China.

It is one of the most important tourist

attractions in the country, and in 1987 it was listed as a UNESCO world heritage site. It is also a
wonderful experience to walk along the Wall and feel the history and amazing atmosphere of
the place.

The Wall is over 8,500 km long, and goes from the east to the west of China. The first parts
were built over 2,000 years ago by the Ming Emperors, in order to protect the central regions
of the country from being attacked. All along the Wall special buildings called beacon towers
were constructed. When some parts of China were attacked by enemies, fires were lit in them
so that people on other towers could see them and send warnings to the army.

Nowadays some of the sections are in ruins, but other parts have been repaired. The most
famous section is called Badaling. It is near Beijing, so it is convenient and there is a cable car
to transport visitors, but bear in mind that it is often full of tourists. It is safe to walk at
Badaling, but you should take strong shoes and walk carefully. The best time to visit is in spring
or autumn, so that you can enjoy mild weather and fantastic views. It will be an unforgettable
trip.
