The Great Wall is the world's longest human-made structure, stretching over approximately 6,400 km (4,000 miles) from Shanhai Pass in the east to Lop Nur in the west, along an arc that roughly delineates the southern edge of Inner Mongolia. It is also the largest human-made structure ever built in terms of surface area and mass.

In Chinese, it is Ten Thousand Mile Wall. So it is 10,000 mile long. Now, you need to convert that 2500 years old of Chinese mile to the current mile, that is another story. (Great Wall was build about 2500 years ago.)
