We visited the Nanjing City Walls on the trip, and they were amazing. As I understand, Nanjing is the only city in China that still has most of its original walls. The Nanjing walls were built in the 1300s. It took more than 25 years and over a million workers to build them. They run for around 35 km.
We walked along a portion of the wall and I was amazed by how well they have held up over time.
It was really cool to see the modern Nanjing skyline from the ancient walls.
