Have you ever been on the Great Wall Of China? My friend Elena has been there. She told me that, it was a marvelous experience. She said that It had been one of the best experience in her life, however it was an exhausting experience. She got surprised to be on the top and being surrounded by green landscapes. Also she got impressed by the perfect alignment of the walls.
The Great Wall is more than 2,300 years. It was constructed by the Ming Dynasty. It is named a ‘Wall’, but actually, it is not only a simple ‘Wall’. Historical facts show that it was a huge fortification, consisting of overlapping walls and trenches for blocking enemies, watchtowers and beacon towers for signals and communication, fortresses for head-on battles, and barracks to accommodate soldiers.
In conclusion, I love travelling, for this reason I recommend to visit China. Hopefully I will accomplish this goal one day, meanwhile I suggest to read the blog and learn new vocabulary. Source
