This wall was built for defence of the country from foreign attacks. The Great Wall of China today consists of more than 6,700 Kilometers of wall, stretching over deserts, cliffs, plateaus and hills as it separates nations from the east coast to the northwest corner of China. The Great wall stands up to 25 feet high, 30 feet wide at the base, and 12 feet wide at the top. Mongol invaders however had no trouble breaching the wall by going around it due to its non continuity, so the wall proved unsuccessful and was eventually abandoned. A vast majority of the brick and stone that people see today were put in place during this period in defence against the Mongols, and a number of towers were erected that acted as beacons to warn of advancing troops. Smoke signals were used during the day and fires were used at night. The most visited section of the Great Wall, and the first to be opened to tourists in 1957, is located in Badaling and is a part of the wall that was built during the Ming Dynasty.
