LBY4725459: The Great Wall of China is close to Pekin. Construction of the Great Wall began in the 9th and 8th century BC, and continued for more than 2,000 years. If all its constructions and trunks spread across the vast region of North and Central China were combined, the Great Wall would extend over 50,000 km (100,000 li). Indeed, historical records show that since the Fighting Kingdoms, more than 20 feodal states and imperial dynasties have begun building defense walls. Photography 25/10/07 / Bridgeman Images
