04:30

"The view here is already stunning, and on this ridge there is this massive structure." These words of heartfelt admiration are from Yang Dong, a 30-year-old photographer who spent nine years measuring the Great Wall. "The fact that the Great Wall completely links the people of the steppe region and the people of the farming region means that this country is inclusive," according to Li Xiaocong, a 70-year-old history scholar who searched libraries and museums in Europe for a Great Wall map mentioned in a foreign research article.
