Description

The Great Wall of China is one of the most famous defensive structures in history, originally built in the 7th century BC. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Great Wall symbolizes China's military, political, and cultural evolution. Today, it faces threats such as natural erosion and excessive tourism. Digital preservation methods, including 3D reconstruction, virtual reality (VR), and augmented reality (AR), are being used to document and protect the site while enhancing visitor experiences and providing educational resources. These initiatives contribute to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 4 (Quality Education) by ensuring the conservation of this historical landmark for future generations.
