Pekin: The Great Wall of China. 1898

 Bookmark and Share

Unlike the fortifications of the Great Wall built during the Qin Dynasty (221 BCE-206 BCE), portions of the wall built a thousand years later during the Ming Dynasty were more elaborate and stronger. Bricks and stone were used instead of packed earth. Mongol attacks made such precautions necesssary.
