The Great Wall of China is indeed a gigantic structure of antiquity. The wall is larger than the Egyptian pyramids in scale. Its length is 21,200 kilometers, and the height of the walls reaches 8 meters. That's just, as a defensive structure, the wall is absolutely useless. Let's figure out why?

Many researchers believe that the Chinese wall was intended for defense, as they found participants where loopholes are located on both sides, or have already been moved as a result of reconstruction to the desired side.

The location of the towers is also a very inconvenient fact. They are positioned as if they should repel enemy attacks from the south, and not from the north, especially since there are even stairs on the north side. But all this is rather confusing, the thing is there are sections of the wall that completely contradict each other. Reconstruction of the wall was carried out more than a dozen times, but it is worth paying attention to another detail.

The lower base of the wall is constructed of a different material than the upper one and is of a higher quality. Even in the photographs, you can see that the upper part of the wall is built mainly of more modern bricks, and the base is of slabs. I believe that the quality of the older layer of the wall can be seen with the naked eye. There are also areas where the wall is entirely made of bricks, which means that the wall has reached various restorations in a very poor condition.

Gumilyov wrote “Its height reached 10 and watchtowers towered every 60-100 meters. When the work was completed, it turned out that all the Chinese armed forces were not enough to organize an effective defense on the wall. If you think about it, even if you place a small detachment on each tower, the enemy will destroy it much earlier than reinforcements arrive, and if you arrange large detachments, but less often, then the gaps will be so huge that the alleged enemy will easily break through the wall.

I deeply doubt that the ancient Chinese were so stupid that they built a wall, absolutely not thinking how to protect it. I am more inclined to believe that the wall was not built by the Chinese and not for defense, and certainly not in the third century BC. Most likely, the wall is an ancient road that was intended for rapid movement through mountainous terrain, but the Chinese have already restored this structure for their own purposes. But the question remains, who then built the wall (road?), Maybe the same creatures as the pyramids in China?
