摘要
自古以来,甘肃就是中国重要的关隘。古人常说:“欲守关中,先固陇右。”早在战国时期,人们便开始在此地修筑长城作为军事防御。甘肃历代所筑的长城至少有五处,分别是战国魏长城、秦长城、汉长城、隋长城和明长城。其中秦、汉、明三代万里长城的最西端都在甘肃境内,总里程达4000公里,占全国长城总里程的四分之一。这些长城依山随势,跨黄河,翻雪域,越沙漠,部分遗迹至今尚存,成为人文旅游的热门“打卡地”。
Gansu has historically served as a crucial frontier of China.As the saying goes,"To defend Guanzhong',one must first secure Longyou?"Since the Warring States period,efforts to fortify Gansu have been evident in the construction of the Great Wall.Gansu is home to at least five sections of the Great Wall:the Wei Great Wall of the Warring States,the Qin Great Wall,the Han Great Wall,the Sui Great Wall,and the Ming Great Wall.
