中国 长城
作为世界的七大奇迹之一，中国的长城是人造的建筑，建于2000年以前，耗时100多年才竣工。这一工程规模的巨大让人相信人类力量的伟大。
The constructions started in the 5th Century B.C. It is actually many walls put together and stretches over 4,000 miles and was constructed to protect the Chinese Empire from the Xiongnu people in the north. The wall was initially built of stone, grass, earth and wood, but bricks were used once the production started. It is believed that about 2-3 million Chinese died as part of this project.
该建筑始于公元前五世纪。实际上，长城是由许多的墙组成的一个整体，延绵4000多余里。建造长城是为了防止北方匈奴对帝国的骚扰。开始时，城墙是由石头、牧草、泥土、木头建造的，而砖块是从一开始就用上了。人们相信，大约两到三百万人建造这一工程中死去。
