Survived more than 2200 years , but the Great Wall of China is now in danger of destruction .
However , tourists are not to blame for it . Farmers slowly but surely " break down " the largest
construction building that is erected by human hands .
" Nearly a third of the wall is damaged or destroyed ," said Li Lin of Chinese Society for the
preservation of the Great Wall .
This
situation caused the farmers living near the building materials used
for the wall construction of
roads , zasolnishtva , trails , and even
repairing homes .
Laws
that protect this monument was built during the reign of the Ming
Dynasty , adopted in 2006 ,
but not adequately applied in rural areas . Parts
of the wall near Beijing and tourist centers have been
preserved and
even restored , but in the poorest parts of the country the situation is
quite different.
Great Wall is made of stone , brick , wood and other materials .
