If anyone asks you which is the largest wall in the world?
So you will respond in a jolt and say, 'The Great Wall of China. Your answer
is absolutely correct, but if you are asked that ghosts roam in this wall, you
might not believe it!
But believe it can be true. People who roam there tell that
they have heard the scary voices there. Now if those people are right, then the
question is, how can this happen? So let's try to find out this mysterious
secret:
The great wall of China
The construction of this wall of China was started in the
5th century BC, which lasted till the 16th century. During this period a lot of
rulers came and went, but its construction continued. Originally this wall was
constructed so that the general attacks of the enemies would not affect the
empire. How big this wall is, you can guess from it that it can also be seen
from space. It is in the east of China. It extends from Shanhaiguan to Lop Nur
in the west. According to the figures, the total length of this wall is about
21,196.18 km.

why it was built?
It must have been around the 8th century. All empires were
moving forward for their expansion. To avoid this, states like Kui, Yan and
Jaho planned to build this wall. Clay and pebbles were used for its
construction. Later, its series moved forward, many other walls kept connecting
and it was called the Wall of China. It is believed that about 20 to 30 lakh
people had spent their entire life in the construction project of this wall.
The number of tourists in the Chinese wall is included in
the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. According to the 2001 data (Link in English),
almost seventy thousand tourists come here every day. Despite this, China has
probably become indifferent to its maintenance. This is the reason why this
wall is in danger. It is slowly deteriorating. Let us tell that a large part of
the Chinese wall has disappeared due to natural disasters, adverse natural
conditions, and human negligence.
Admittedly, this wall that enticed the audience is no longer
an unbreakable structure. Now it has been divided into several parts. Thousands
of kilometers this wall has been broken. Now weeds are also seen around it.
Plants are spreading their feet along its banks. Many towers have become so
dilapidated that it seems that now we will not be able to bear the brunt of
rain and storm for a long time. Not only this, but it is also discussed that some
people of the surrounding villages are stealing bricks from this wall to build
their houses. It is said that these bricks are also removed and sold. Although
the Chinese government has imposed a penalty for saving the wall, it has
remained only a law. No special arrangements have been made by it to maintain
it. In this case, whatever the reason, but the wall of China is in danger, if
it is not taken care of, the coming generations will read it only in books. In
such a situation, it is expected that the Chinese government will consider it
and take desirable steps.
