Where did the Great Wall originate? Where to stop?

From Shanhaiguan in the east to Jiayuguan in the west, it is such an encyclopedia.

During the Western Zhou Dynasty, in order to defend against the attacks of the northern nomads, the Zhou Dynasty built a continuous array of castles "Leh" as a defense. In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, in order to compete for hegemony, the countries defended each other, and built the Great Wall on the border according to their respective defense needs, the earliest building was the "Chu Fang City" in the 7th century BC, and then Qi, Han, Wei, Zhao, Yan, Qin, Zhongshan and other large and small princely states have successively built the "Great Wall of Princes Mutual Defense" to defend themselves.

In the Qin Dynasty, after Qin destroyed the six countries and unified the world, Qin Shi Huang connected and repaired the Great Wall of the Warring States Period, and it was called the Great Wall of Ten Thousand Miles. The Ming Dynasty was the last dynasty to overhaul the Great Wall, and most of the Great Wall that people see today was built at this time.

The resources of the Great Wall are mainly distributed in 15 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities including Hebei, Beijing, Tianjin, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Gansu, Inner Mongolia, Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning, Shandong, Henan, Qinghai, Ningxia and Xinjiang. Among them, the length of Hebei Province is more than 2,000 kilometers, and the length of Shaanxi Province is 1,838 kilometers.

According to the results of the national survey of the Great Wall resources of the Department of Cultural Relics and Surveying and Mapping, the total length of the Great Wall in the Ming Dynasty is 10,000 kilometers, and the Great Wall in the Qin and Han dynasties and early is more than 10,000 kilometers, with a total length of more than 10,000 kilometers. The existing cultural relics of the Great Wall include the Great Wall wall, moats, single buildings, fortresses, related facilities and other relics, totaling more than 10,000 places (sections).

<> Great Wall originated during the Warring States period around the 7th century BC, when countries began to build walls for defense against the invasion of northern nomads.

During the Qin Dynasty, Qin Shi Huang unified China and united the walls of various countries into one, forming the first prototype of the Great Wall.

During the Han and Tang dynasties, the Great Wall was mainly used to defend against northern nomads such as the Xiongnu, and the Great Wall line was extended to more than 4,000 kilometers.

During the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongols controlled the Central Plains, and the defensive role of the Great Wall weakened.

Since the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, in order to curb the northern Jurchen tribe, the Great Wall was built on a large scale, forming the scale of today's Great Wall.

The basic status of the Great Wall is as follows:

1.The Great Wall is more than 20,000 kilometers long, roughly in an east-west direction, from Liaoning in the north to Gansu in the south, and the main Tongyan is concentrated in Shanxi, Beijing, Hebei and Inner Mongolia.

2.The existing parts of the Great Wall with good conditions mainly include the Beijing Great Wall, the Nankou Great Wall, the Shanhaiguan Great Wall and the Xi'an Great Wall. These parts of the Great Wall were built more inteact, and they are representative sections of the Great Wall.

3.Due to its long history and lack of effective protection, much of the Great Wall has been severely damaged. At present, only about 5,000 kilometers of the Great Wall are relatively intact, and most of the others are in a state of destruction.

4.Since the 80s of the last century, the protection of the Great Wall has been increased. However, due to the long construction of the Great Wall and the development of tourism, the task of protecting the Great Wall is difficult and huge.

5.The Great Wall was inscribed on the World Heritage List in 1987. The Great Wall attracts tourists from all over the globe for its architectural and historical value.

6.The Great Wall also carries the cultural connotation and spirit of the Chinese nation, embodies the indomitable national spirit of the Chinese, and has important historical and cultural symbolic significance.

The Great Wall has a long history, but its current scale is less than 10,000 times that of its construction. Protecting the Great Wall and restoring its original historical appearance is a major problem and responsibility faced by China and society. The Great Wall is also an important symbol of Chinese civilization.

The earliest Great Wall was built by the State of Chu and was called Fangcheng. In order to defend against the northern nomads or enemy countries, the construction of the Kaiyuangao Great Wall began, and later, Qi, Yan, Wei, Zhao, Qin and other countries also began to build their own Great Wall for the same purpose. After Qin unified the six countries, Qin Shi Huang sent the famous general Meng Tian to the north to invade the Xiongnu in the north, connecting the Great Wall of various countries, starting from Linyao in the west and reaching Liaodong in the east, stretching for more than 10,000 miles, so it was called the Great Wall.

The Great Wall of China is the world's longest construction time, the largest amount of national military defense project in the era of cold weapons war, embodies the blood, sweat and wisdom of our ancestors, and is the symbol and pride of the Chinese nation.

Extended information: The resources of the Great Wall are mainly distributed in 15 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities, including Hebei, Beijing, Tianjin, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Gansu, Inner Mongolia, Heilongjiang, Jilin, Liaoning, Shandong, Henan, Qinghai, Ningxia and Xinjiang.

Among them, Shaanxi Province is the province with the most abundant resources of the Great Wall in China, with a length of 1,838 kilometers. According to the results of the national survey of the Great Wall resources of the Department of Cultural Relics and Surveying and Mapping, the total length of the Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty was more than 10,000 kilometers, and the total length of the Great Wall was more than 10,000 kilometers.

On March 4, 1961, the Great Wall was announced as the first batch of national key cultural relics protection units, and in December 1987, the Great Wall was listed as a world cultural heritage.

The origin of the Great Wall is Hushan in Liaodong and ends at Jiayuguan.

The details are as follows: 1. Length.

The "Report on the Protection of the Great Wall of China" released by the State Administration of Cultural Heritage for the first time revealed the "family foundation" of the Great Wall - the total length of the remains of the wall moats is kilometers, and the resources of the Great Wall in various eras are distributed in 404 counties (cities and districts) in 15 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities directly under the central government) such as Beijing, Hebei and Shanxi

2. Historical evolution.

During the Spring and Autumn Period of the Great Wall and the Warring States Period, the princes of various countries defended against the invasion of other countries. Beacon towers were built and connected with city walls to form the earliest Great Wall. Almost all subsequent kings strengthened and repaired the Great Wall. It is also called the "Great Wall" because it is tens of thousands of miles long.

3. Military significance.

As the saying goes, "If you don't reach the Great Wall, you're not a hero." As the seventh wonder of the world, the Great Wall can be said to have a long history, we all know that after the establishment of the Qin Dynasty, Qin Shi Huang used millions of laborers to build the Great Wall to resist the Xiongnu, and later dynasties built the Great Wall on the basis of the Great Wall of Qin.

Qin Shi Huang believed that it was true , so he sent this scholar to find the elixir of immortality .

After a while , the scholar returned . He also recounted what he had seen and heard when he went out, and in the end, he confessed that he had not obtained the elixir , but he copied a book from the immortal and presented it to the king of Qin .

Qin Shi Huang immediately opened it and read it, but he didn't know anything about what was written in it, and he didn't know what it was going to do. however , he made it clear that the four characters " the deceased qin man hu " is an immortal book , he does n't dare to disbelieve it .

So he ordered the general Meng Tian to lead an army of 300,000 to attack the Huns in the north . The Qin army won a complete victory and defeated the Huns. However , Qin Shi Huang was not satisfied , so he built a large number of buildings and built the Great Wall .
