Let me introduce myself. My name is Anne Rice and I want to present some excting information about the Great Wall of
China. I am the founder and President of China Excursions Inc. We are now offering several inexpensive hiking
tours as well as jeep excursions to American tourists.
The Great Wall of China was built in the 5th century B.C. during the Ming Dynasty. The reason it was constructed
was to provide protection from the northern borders of the Chinese Empire. The wall is over 6,400 kilometers long.
The most famous part of the wall was built between 220 B.C, and 200 B.C. by the first emperor of China. The wall gradually
deteriorated because of weathering and age. It was rebuilt during the 16th Century. The Great Wall of China is
trully one of the greatest man-made wonders of the world.
China is one of the oldest civilizations that exist today. The Great Wall of China is a fascinating look at the China of
yesterday, rich in culture and traditions that will enlighten you on the Chinese heritage
As you travel along the wall, you'll see magnificent views and vistas of the country
Experience China, a country rich in culture, traditions and heritage.
