After discovering that there had never been a travelling exhibition of the Great Wall, Dr Fewster and his colleagues at the National Museum of China got busy building one. The result is an odd collection of over 150 objects — most having little to do with the main subject of the exhibit — along with several videos, a few clever interactive
It was actually China’s first emperor, Qin Shi Huang, who began unifying these stretches of wall during his reign in the 3rd century BCE. But, virtually all of these early walls have disappeared over time. Of the 21,196 kilometers (13,171 miles) of Great Wall, nearly half were built by the Ming Dynasty.
The construction of the Great Wall was mainly done by hand. The large stones, earth, wood and bricks were carried on human’s back or lifted by the bar. Simple machines were also used, such as varied handcarts, crowbars and wheels. Horses and Donkeys were also used to transport the materials. Thousands of men died and were buried under the

Sadly, historians estimate that more than 1 million workers died during the construction of the Great Wall of China. The Great Wall was not completed during Qin's lifetime, and many emperors after Qin used the same forced labor system to continue work on the wall. Most of the modern Great Wall was built during the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644 A.D.).
This is the wall known to later generations as the 10,000-li Great Wall. There is no specific measurement of the length of the Qin Dynasty Great Wall. Based on its name, "10,000-li Great Wall" is 5,000 kilometers long, or 3,107 miles, (1 li= 0.5 kilometer= 0.3107 mile). The construction of the wall cost many lives and a great deal of money and
The Great Wall, as one of the world's great wonders, was built during more than 2,000 years of continuous construction, from the Spring and Autumn Period (770 BC-221 BC) to the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644).

The emperor, Qin Shi Huangdi, thought of connecting older existing walls with sections of a new wall. The wall he built is considered China’s first Great Wall. By the late 1400s, much of the old wall had fallen into ruin.
