It extends for over 21 thousand kilometers or 13 thousand miles, making it the largest manmade structure in the world.
● The construction started in 220 BC and it took around 2,500 years to build.
● The Wall stretches across 15 northern Chinese provinces.
● When it was first built, there were actually 19 walls, however, many of them no longer exist.
● The next fact will be included in the trivia for this week! The Great Wall of China became a UNESCO World Heritage Site in December 1987.
Don’t forget to participate in the trivia! Hope you learned something new about China today!
