The main part of the Great Wall of China is 2,150 miles long. Additional side sections add 1,800 more miles.
The Great Wall stands about 25 feet high. It narrows from a width of about 25 feet at the base to 15 feet at the top. Watchtowers are located every 100 to 200 yards along the wall. These towers, which are about 40 feet high, once served as lookout posts but are no longer used for defense.
