The Great Wall

View of the Great Wall of China at Jinshanling—June 12, 2014. Jinshanling is 120 kilometers (75 miles) from Beijing where the boundaries of Miyun County of Beijing and Luanping County of Hebei meet. Its name was derived from the greater and lesser Jinshan Watchtowers. Watchtowers were constructed at distances of 60 meters and 200 meters to make it easier for soldiers to come to one another’s aid, if needed.
