The sample essay for China's World Cultural Heritage is as follows:

The Great Wall of China is famous for its majestic momentum and magnificent scale, and it is infused with the infinite wisdom and perseverance of the ancients to make it incomparably strong and majestic. Today, the Great Wall is listed as a World Heritage Site.

The Great Wall is like a traveler who travels in the mountains and rivers, with its footprints on the top of the mountains and its footprints on the vast plains. It has been continuously built for more than 2,000 years, distributed in the vast land of northern and central China, with a total length of thousands of kilometers, in more than a dozen provinces and cities such as Xinjiang, Gansu, Ningxia, Hebei, Beijing, Hubei, etc., there are the remains of the ancient Great Wall and beacon tower.

As early as the Spring and Autumn War, there was a Great Wall in Wu Peiguo, at that time, the princes of Yan Zhao State built a beacon tower in order to defend against the invasion of other countries, and connected it with a thick city wall, which formed the earliest Great Wall in Chinese history. Originally, the Great Wall built by Qin Shi Huang was the most majestic, but after 2,000 years of war and artillery fire, the Great Wall was reduced to rubble. The Great Wall referred to today was built in the Ming Dynasty.

If you talk about the Great Wall, the most spectacular is the Badaling Great Wall. It is 1,015 meters above sea level, the terrain is very dangerous, and it has always been a battleground for soldiers. Climb this section of the Great Wall, from a high vantage point, and enjoy the beautiful scenery of the lofty mountains.

In spring, the sun is shining on the ridge, and the valley is deep but green.

The Great Wall coils around the top of the mountain, like a dragon lying still, lying among the flowers and green trees, which is very comfortable. In summer, the sun is like fire, standing in the city tower, but there is a breeze blowing from time to time, infinitely happy. The autumn is high and cool, Badaling is golden and red, and the Great Wall is becoming more and more vigorous and graceful.

The winter snow falls, and the Great Wall is wrapped in silver-white plain clothes, like a strong man wearing silver armor to defend the motherland.

The ancient Great Wall is so delicate, how much wisdom the ancients used up, how much blood and tears were shed! The wide and heavy walls are made up of huge stones, and there is a path on the city wall that can accommodate two carriages in parallel. In dangerous places, the walls are higher, and in ordinary places, the walls are lower, like an undulating wave, constantly moving forward and moving forward on the earth....

The beacon tower is also an important part of the Great Wall, in ancient times, the enemy came to light a cigarette during the day, and in the middle of the night, it was possible to send information back to the imperial court. This is also the result of the wisdom of the ancient working people, so the Great Wall has become a first-class protected cultural relic in China. The motherland is so delicate, and the Great Wall is the essence of it, which makes people excited.
