hello everyone! Welcome to Beijing. My name is Tang Jingnan. Today, let meshow you around the Great Wall, which was established as a cultural heritage in1987!
The Great Wall, where we are now, is made of brick, tile, lime and wood.The Great Wall is 6-7 meters in average and 4-5 meters in width. In ancienttimes, there were no trains, cars or cranes, so we had to rely on countlessshoulders and hands to lift up the steep mountains step by step. It took 2090working people to build the Great Wall. There is a monument on the Great Wall,which is called "no hero without reaching the Great Wall". It has been more than20__ years. The Great Wall was built in the spring and Autumn period. With atotal length of 6700 kilometers, the great wall passes through seven provincesand autonomous regions. It starts from Shanhaiguan in the East and ends atJiayuguan in the West.
In the process of building the Great Wall, it is said that there is atouching story, that is "Meng Jiangnu crying down the Great Wall". In the QinDynasty, it is said that there was a kind woman named Meng Jiangnu. Once, whenMeng Jiangnu was planting flowers in the garden, she saw a man. He was afraid ofthe woman's barking and shook her hand. Meng Jiangnu asked, "what's your name?""My name is fan Xiliang," he said Meng Jiangnu asked fan Xiliang to live in herhouse. After a few days, Meng Jiangnu fell in love with fan Xiliang, and fanXiliang also fell in love with Meng Jiangnu. One night, when Meng Jiangnu andfan Xiliang entered the bridal chamber, the birds were flying outside. Sometroops were stationed, so they took fan Xiliang away to build the Great Wall.Meng Jiangnu had been waiting for a long time and decided to go to the GreatWall to find fan Xiliang. After three days and three nights, she finally reachedthe Great Wall. He asked the workers, "have you seen fan Xiliang? "He fell atthe foot of the Great Wall when he built it," the worker said. "Meng Jiangnucried for three days and three nights and collapsed a section of the Great Wall.Seeing fan Xiliang, Meng Jiangnu and fan Xiliang went.
