Hello. Today I will talk about the tourist attractions of China. The first that comes to mind is the Great Wall of China. It is about 8851.8km long even though some parts are in ruin and others have disappeared. it took about 2000 years to build. From the Warring States Period (476 BC-221 BC) to Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). It was made to protect the Chinese from the Mongols. It was worked on by over 100 000 people. If they died when working, they were put inside the wall and sealed in. Next is the Terracotta Warriors. There are over 7000 warriors and each one is different. There are also Many horses, chariots and weapons. They were made to protect Qin Shi Huang. The first Emperor of all of China. It took 11 years to complete and he started when he ascended to the throne when he was 13. These are only 2 of the hundreds of tourist attractions in China. Some day I wish to visit these places.
That's very interesting James! It sounds like China has some very fascinating tourist attractions. They sound almost as cool as England's! Some of England's most popular tourist attractions include Big Ben and of course Windsor Palace. I think it's a little creepy that they burried the bodies of the workers who died working on the Great Wall of China inside the wall itself. I look forward to learning more about China!
ReplyDeleteWow! That is very interesting James. I did not know that China had so many tourist destinations. I knew about the great wall of china, but I did not know all those other attractions.
