Fascination ChinaChina, one of the cradles of human civilization, possesses so
many treasures with Chinese characteristics that numerous foreign friends come
to visit her.The first place to go to is, the Great Wall, which is the symbol of
China and one of the seven wonders in the world. What's more, it is said to be
the only construction that can be seen from the outer space. In the imperial
periods, it was used in defense of the dynasties. Since liberation, it has
become a place of interest. There is a famous saying: "He who does not reach the
Great Wall isn't a true man."China is home to Panda, an animal with only two
colors, white and black, but very cute. It's our national treasure, often
