Myths about Great Wall of

China

1) Is the only construction of man that can be seen from space.

2) It has a length of thousands of kilometers.

• 3) That the bodies of those who built it buried under the wall.

• The first myth: "It is the only human construction visible from the moon and space" was checked that says any manmade building out of sight from 480 km. The myth would have originated in the 1938 book "The Second Book of Wonders" by Richard Halliburton, written long before the man on the moon.

The second myth responds to exaggerate the length of the Great Wall of China. The Great Wall is not a construction unit but a series of walls, towers and fortifications of 5.500 miles (8,850 k) and 10,000 Li, as ancient China.

• The third myth is related to a legend of the Qin Dynasty. This is not true according to history and archeology, the bodies were found a few miles of the wall, as they would otherwise have lost the stability of the structure.

• The wall that we visited today is almost entirely built during the Ming Dynasty and most tourists visit Badalin, just 55 km from Beijing, which is the closest point and best restored. Like any major resort is a resort with ski lifts, trains, shops and restaurants.
