Items related to Rare Pictures of the Great Wall
Rare Pictures of the Great Wall is a presentation of typical parts of the world famous relic of history. The Wall, which remains some 5,000 kilometers long, has attractive, well-preserved sections frequented by tourists from all parts of the world. But it contains many more sections located in precipitous mountains or along dangerous marshes which have never been seen by people in modern time, including the Chinese. The photographers braved difficult terrain and ventured into the no man's land in China's frontier so as to take the pictures. Their productions are of an artistic value as well as a scientific and historical significance. The Great Wall built over a period of more than 2000 years, is no longer' effective as a defense barrier. But it remains a symbol of the spirit of the Chinese nation and a product of the historical conflict and fusion among China's various ethnic groups. The exquisite, hard to obtain pictures are presented by an introduction and accompanied by captions which provide in depth information on the Great Wall in relation to the vicissitudes of China's political and socioeconomic history.
