Experts once believed that the Great Wall of China only stood 5,500 miles long, but a new archaeological survey done by Chinaâs State Administration of Cultural Heritage says the Great Wall is more than double than that length. The report, released early June, estimates that the Great Wall extends 13,170 miles long and across 15 provinces.
Great Wall of China is the longest wall in the world and an awe-inspiring feat of ancient defensive architecture. The total length of the Great Wall of China building in different dynasties is 13,170.69 miles (21,196.18 kilometers). I had visited there before some months through a well known travel agency trekclub. Really it was an amazing place to visit.
