The
Great Wall stretches for 4,160 miles across North China. It is the only
man-made structure that can be seen from the moon with the naked eye. Its
construction started as far back as the Spring and Autumn period (770-476
B.c.) and the Warring States period (475-221 B.C.). Rival feudal kingdoms
built walls around their territories to keep out invading nomadic tribes
from the north. When Qin Shihuang unified China, he started to link up and
extend these walls. |

Nowadays, the
Forbidden City, or the Palace Museum is open to tourists from home and

will certainly satisfy "modern civilians". |

Owing to the
peculiar terrain, the Yellow Mountains's climate is marked by a vertical
change, and the vertical distribution of vegetation is also distinctive:
plants on the summit, on the middle levels and at the foot belong to the
frigid, temperate and subtropical zones respectively. There are more than
1500 species of plants, of which trees comprise one third. |
