It’s 4-5 meters wide. In most places, five houses or ten men can walk side by side. When you visit the Great Wall, you can’t help wondering (疑惑) how the Chinese people were able to build (建造) such a great wall thousands of years ago. Without any modern machine (机器), it was really very difficult to build it. They had to do all the work by hand. It took millions of men hundreds of years to build it.
The Great Wall has a history of over two thousand years. The kings began to build the first parts of it around two thousand seven hundred years ago. Then, Qin Shihuang had all the walls joined up (连起来). He thought that could keep the enemy (敌人) out of the country.
