Find out more purposes for building the Great Wall >>> History of the Great Wall of China The Great Wall of China has a history of more than 2,300 years. The Great Wall of China’s history began in the Spring and Autumn Period 770–476 BC and was last rebuilt as a defense in the Ming Dynasty 1368–1644. Early Walls 770-221 BC During the Spring and Autumn Period 770–476 BC and the Warring States Period 475–221 BC when the eastern and central region of what is now China consisted of many small states or princedoms, the princes ordered independent walls be built along state borders to protect their states. The earliest was probably built between the states of Lu and Qi around 650 BC, which later became part of the Chu State Wall. The Qin Dynasty 221–206 BC Qin Shihuang king of the State of Qin from 247–221 BC conquered and unified the other states. Emperor Qin Shihuang ordered that the northern sections of walls on state borders, especially the walls in the northern part of China built by the states of Qin, Zhao, and Yan, be joined together to form a unified line of defense against Mongol harassment from the north, the first true Great Wall. Other state border walls became obsolete in a unified China and were subsequently eroded or dismantled. The Han Dynasty 206 BC – 220 AD The northern fortifications were strengthened and lengthened, with sections of wall running parallel for hundreds of kilometers and interlinking along the Inner Mongolian border. The Han Dynasty Great Wall from the North Korean coast near Pyongyang in the east to Jade Gate Pass Yumenguan in the west was the longest the Great Wall has ever been at more than 8,000 km 5,000 miles. The total length included many branching walls, natural barriers, and trenches. The Yuan Dynasty 1271–1368 The Yuan Dynasty was the first dynasty in which the whole of China was controlled by a non-Han people, the Mongols. The Great Wall had done a good job of preserving Han China for 1,500 years. The building of the Great Wall, not surprisingly, ceased during the Yuan Dynasty, as China and Mongolia to the north were one. The Ming Dynasty 1368–1644 China flourished during the Ming Dynasty and its military might swelled. The Great Wall was systematically rebuilt in a 100-year project to prevent further northern invasion. Most of the remaining Great Wall was built in the Ming Dynasty and is known as the Ming Great Wall. The Great Wall sections close to Beijing like the Badaling section and Mutianyu section were built during the Ming Dynasty. Post-Ming History 1644–present A breach in the Great Wall at Shanhai Pass in 1644 by Manchu forces signaled the end of Han control in China for the last and final Chinese dynasty, the Qing Dynasty 1644–1911. It also signaled the end of construction and maintenance of the Great Wall, until the Badaling section was restored by the government of the Peoples' Republic of China, and opened to the public in 1957 as a tourist attraction.

Home Geography & Travel Historical Places Great Wall of China Written and fact-checked by Great Wall of China, Chinese Wanli Changcheng, Defensive wall, northern China. One of the largest building-construction projects ever carried out, it runs with all its branches about 4,500 mi 7,300 km east to west from the Bo Hai Gulf of Chihli to a point deep in Central Asia. Large parts of the fortification date from the 7th to the 4th century bce. In the 3rd century bce the emperor Shihuangdi connected existing defensive walls into a single system fortified by watchtowers. These served both to guard the rampart and to communicate with the capital, Xianyang near modern Xi’an by signal—smoke by day and fire by night. Originally constructed partly of masonry and earth, it was faced with brick in its eastern portion. It was rebuilt in later times, especially in the 15th and 16th centuries. The basic wall is about 23–26 ft 7–8 m high; at intervals towers rise above it to varying heights. It was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1987. Related Article Summaries

Tujuan utama Tembok Besar ini dibina ialah untuk menahan serangan puak-puak President Xi Jinping has called on China's border troops to forge a "great wall of steel" along the country's frontiers by enhancing their capabilities in border defence and control, the state media reported Friday. Xi, 69, who heads the ruling Communist Party of China CPC and the country’s Central Military Commission CMC, the high command of the People’s Liberation Army PLA, made a fact-finding trip on Wednesday to survey the work of border management and control and the development of frontier troops in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region. The Chinese president asked troops to break new ground in border defence, state-run Xinhua news agency reported on Friday. Xi has called on Chinese border troops to enhance their capabilities in border defence and control to forge a "great wall of steel" along the country's borders, it said. Unlike his predecessors, Xi, who came into power in 2012, has regularly visited troops in various border regions, including Tibet. In 2021, he made a rare visit to Nyingchi, a strategically located border town close to Arunachal Pradesh, during his first visit to Tibet. While visiting the Inner Mongolia military command of the PLA, Xi emphasised the importance of ensuring integrity and a high degree of unity among the border troops. Highlighting cooperation among the ruling Communist Party of China CPC and government departments, the military, law enforcement agencies, as well as the ordinary people in border defence as China's unique strength, Xi called for joint efforts from all parties to break new ground in defending the country's borders. He called for additional efforts to intensify troop training and enhance combat preparedness, and speed up capacity building concerning information technology-enabled border defence and control. He also called for efforts to transform how border defence duties are performed, tighten military discipline, maintain good troop order, and foster more border defence professionals. Xi commended the role of the region's border troops in ensuring security and stability on the country's northern border. Praising China's progress in border defence work since he came to power in 2012, Xi said the country's border troops have boosted military training and combat preparedness and resolutely safeguarded border security and the stability in regions along the frontiers. He added that the troops have effectively safeguarded China's sovereignty, security, and development interest. Stressing the importance of border defence in ensuring national stability and governance, Xi called on the border troops to have a stronger sense of mission and responsibility and guard the borders diligently for the ruling Communist Party and the people. Xi underscored the need for continuous efforts to enhance cohesion and forge the soul of the border troops with the CPC's new theories, as well as to improve their education on political discipline, discipline regarding the public and affairs related to foreigners, and policies on ethnic and religious affairs. Xi has been placing more emphasis on ramping up security and increasing the combat levels of the troops ever since he was re-elected as head of the CPC for an unprecedented third time last year. He is the only leader after the party founder Mao Zedong to continue in power for more than two five-year terms.
