The trail
The Ming Great Wall (Chinese: 明長城; pinyin: Míng Chángchéng), built by the Ming dynasty (1368 to 1644), forms the most visible parts of the Great Wall of China today. A comprehensive archaeological survey, using advanced technology has concluded that the Ming walls measure 8,850 km (5, 500 mi) from Jiayu Pass in the west to the sea in Shanhai Pass, then looping over to terminate in Manchuria at the Hushan Great Wall.
