Nowadays, the Great Wall has become famous all over the world and there are thousands of visitors visiting it every day. As the saying goes, He who doesn’t reach the Great Wall is not a true man. It is no deny that China’s Great Wall is the greatest project in history, so it has been called one of seven wonders in the world. In ancient time, In order to resist dangers from the northern threats, rulers chose to build or reinforce it. Although rulers spent lots of money on it, it still didn’t withstand the enemy’s attack. Ironically, the most prosperous dynasty, Tang, didn’t make effort to build the Great Wall. Instead, it depended on its prosper to radiate surrounded small country and communicated with them quite well. Every coin has two sides. On one hand, this old building has proved wisdom and power of Chinese people; on the other hand, it seems to be a failure. Why? Because when one dynasty came down, even the Great Wall can resist nothing. You will understand why there are so many ancient people climbing mountains or writing poems once you walk up the Great Wall. After stepping on thousand-year stones, you will think of numerous spirits, who died of hard work or wars. You will review our past history and speak highly of our ancestors. Last month, my brother-in-law went to Hebei so as to find a better job with his friend by plane. In my eyes, he is young, hard-working and optimistic. Although he was born in a poor family, he was eager to earn much money when he was only 13 years old. After learning how to drive a car to carry stones, he saved money and set up a factory with his second brother. Recently, he heard that the stone market of Hebei is promising, so he wanted to make a survey by himself. To their disappointment, the reality is not what they expected. Therefore, they went to Beijing and climbed the Great Wall together. He said it was quite honor to pay a visit to it, for he felt proud of being a Chinese and he made many friends in this trip. Hence, he said that it was quite worthwhile to spend less than 3000 RMB to enjoy a trip. Finally, as we know, this great building is made of countless stones, which are carried by slaves. http://www.stonebtb.com/.
