The Besar wall or Great Wall China was regarded as some between "7 world miracles". The Besar China wall was projek the defence of the ancient time military that his production period was longest and his project was biggest in the world.

The Besar Tiongkok wall that was called as one of the "7 world miracles" were the defence project of the old time military that took up development time was longest and on a scale biggest in the world. The Besar wall that was grand melintang from the west to the east of Tiongkok along 7000 kilometre more.

The history of the development of the Besar Tiongkok Wall could be traced up until the 9th age before Masehi. At that time, the government in the Tiongkok middle connected the fortress and the lighthouse that were the troops's guard post in the border to one long wall in order to ward off ethnic groups's attack from the north of Tiongkok. To the Chunqiu Period and Berperang countries, the battle raged among countries kepangeranan that was in confrontation with each other. The countries for the sake of his defence personally were endless built the big wall on the hill and the mountain that were located in the area of the border. In the year 221 before Masehi, Emperor Qinshihuang united Tiongkok. After that, Emperor Qinshihuang ordered so that walls that were built by various countries kepangeranan that was connected to one big wall as the bunker to ward off the attack of troops of ethnic cavalry nomadik in the Monggolia meadow the Tiongkok northern part. The Besar wall at that time the length reached 5000 kilometre more.

The Besar wall to Dinasi Han after the collapse of the Qin Dynasty was extended until 10 thousand kilometre more. In the history during 2000 years ago, the ruler in various times had not stopped building the Besar Wall so as long the total of them reached 50 thousand kilometre, that was enough to orbit the earth of one time more. The Besar wall that we mentioned now most are the big wall that was built in the Ming Dynasty that had the power between the year 1368 and 1644. His west tip was based from the Jiayu Fortress in the Gansu Tiongkok Barat Province and the east tip him was located at the edge of the Yalu Provinsi Liaoning Tiongkok Timur Laut River after beyond 9 provinces, the city and the autonomous area along 7300 kilometre, or was the same as 14 thousand li Tiongkok. Therefore, the Besar Wall was acknowledged as the "long wall 10 thousand li" in Tiongkok. As the bunker, the Besar Wall was built by joining the running of the peak of mountains. The topography that was passed by him very complicated, in part, gurung sand, the meadow and the swamp. To adjust to various topographies, the development executive of the Besar Wall applied the extraordinary and different structure. Kesemua this showed the ancestors's intelligence of the Tionghoa nation. The Besar wall that was winding mamanjang followed the peak of mountains was almost impossible was conquered by the enemy in the old time because of the mountain and the slope that became the foundation of the wall.The Tembok Besar body is usually built with the big stone associated with the land and the fragment stone. The height approximately 10 metre and the width approximately 5 metre, that is for 4 proceeding horses adjacent enough. Therefore, really was easy for the troops's manoeuvre and the transport of the foodstuff and the weapon. On the inside of the wall was built the door and the ladder to rise descended. The Besar wall was connected with the fortress or the lighthouse of each sector, where being kept the weapon and the foodstuff.

Moreover, like that was learnt the occurrence of the enemy's aggression, in the lighthouse will be lit fire when the night and the smoke during the day so as the news can about the enemy's attack be spread all through the country in the near future. In the important sector of the Besar Wall, for example the strategic tracks,The mountain pass and the border of the mountain with sea usually are built the big gate attic. The gate attics did not only look grand, but also reflected sparkling architecture art the old Tiongkok time. Now some gate attics changed to the tourist attraction, for example the Gerbang Shanhaiguan Attic on the end east the Besar Wall that was called as the attic of the number gate of one Tiongkok and the Gerbang Juyongguan Attic the sector of Badaling Tembok Besar around Beijing. The function of the Besar Wall as the military bunker now already was not again, but beauty of his architecture stayed very astonishing. Beauty of the Besar Wall was reflected in the glory, the strength and his greatness. Looked from the place far to the Besar Wall, the big wall high that memanjang for thousands kilometre that appeared similar the dragon mahabesar that menggeliang-geliut followed mountains; if being seen from the short distance, then the wall was full of the attraction of art with his architecture that various styles. The Besar wall was results of exertion that was wetted sweat and blood as well as was thought about by the people's Tiongkok intelligence in the old time. How heavy is the development project of the Besar Wall in the old time that still was low the productive power indeed was difficult to be imagined.
