Earlier this month, we posted a vocabulary list of some famous Chinese landmarks. It really helps to know the Chinese name, as many local people will simply give you a blank stare if you ask them where the Forbidden City is.\u00a0For a closer look at a few of them, here are some more detailed posts and videos for you to check out. Exploring China’s landmarks can take a lifetime, but you can hit ten of them\u00a0right now!<\/p>\n

When it comes to China’s landmarks, nothing comes close to the Great Wall<\/strong> (\u957f\u57ce – ch\u00e1ng ch\u00e9ng). It’s one of the “New 7 Wonders of the World,” although it’s been around for thousands of years. Stretching for over 20,000 km across China, it’s an awe-inspiring place that attracts millions of visitors every year. Chairman Mao famously said, “You aren’t a real man until you’ve climbed the Great Wall!” If you’re really adventurous, why not try camping on the Wall<\/a>?<\/p>\n
