Beginning in 2007, a group of Chinese surveyors spread across 15 provinces to measure the wall segments they found. A total of 43,721 Heritage sites of the Great Wall have been confirmed throughout the country in the above survey.

Earlier, the length of this wonder of the world was announced to be about 8,850km, in which the colored wall section of the construction of the Ming Dynasty is one of the most popular tourist attractions in China. However, according to Tong Mingkang of the National Bureau of Culture and Heritage, only 8.2% of this wall is intact, while the rest is in a state of degradation. Many other parts of the Great Wall are also fragmented and abandoned.
The Great Wall was built from the Qin Dynasty (221-206 BC) and continued to expand many centuries later through 13 dynasties. UNESCO recognized this work as a world heritage site in 1987.
