Tembok Besar China


     The first great wall was built during the First Emperor Qin Dynasty. Great Wall was built by combining several existing walls built in the Warring States Period. The original Great Wall is located north of the Great Wall that still exists today, and reached the eastern end of North Korea today. But most of the first great wall have been destroyed.

The Government has instructed the farmers to build this wall, and many died while building it. Therefore, it is also called "the longest cemetery on Earth".
