Construction Time of the the Ming Wall. The Great Wall at Badaling. Over 2,000 years, many imperial dynasties and kingdoms built, rebuilt, and extended walls many times that subsequently eroded. The latest imperial construction was performed by the Ming Dynasty (1368â1644), and the length was then over 6,000 kilometers (3,700 miles).
This is the wall often referred to when we talk about the Great Wall. The Ming dynasty spent 200 years to build their wall. Decades of work that went into constructing wide and paved turreted walls with towers. These walls served as troop highways in the rough terrain. The Badaling Section of the Great Wall shows the Ming laborers' rigorous craftsmanship.
