Like a giant dragon, the Great Wall meanders over deserts, grasslands, and mountains until finally arriving at its destination - Bohai Gulf. Zigzagging 4,500 miles from Jiayuguan Pass in the west to Shanhaiguan Pass in the east, the wall crosses over nine provinces and cities, including Gansu, Ningxia, Shaanxi, Inner Mongolia, Shanxi, Hebei, Beijing, Tianjin, and Liaoning. The Great Wall had witnessed many changes through several thousand years of history, from the Warring States to the Ming Dynasty .
There is a comprehensive lists of Great Wall sections.
