中国长城，greatwall
长城（八达岭、慕田峪）：位于北京境内的长城有两段对游人开放。一是位于延庆县内的八达岭长城；一是位于怀柔县内的慕田峪长城。两段长城均设有缆车直达山顶。
长城始建于公元前7世纪，是中国古代一项伟大的建筑工程长城东起山海关，西至嘉峪关，绵延12000里，为世界上最壮观的人造工程。
位于北京城西北80公里处的八达岭长城系明代修建，两峰夹峙，形势险要。城墙平均高7.8米、垛口以及峰火台等。八达岭西南10公里处的居庸关，是古代北京的交通要道和军事重地。
八达岭长城每日前门、北京火车站、东大桥、动物园有旅游车直达 慕田峪长城每日由东直门发车
黄花城长城位于明十三陵北面崇山之巅，是护卫陵区的重要军事设施。长城坚固，两重水关，东接慕田峪，西连居庸关，雉堞长龙，森严壁垒。
单边长城：位于司马台北山，这里山脊薄，有的段落只有40CM宽，其下是悬崖绝壁，筑城极为困难。 为防御需要，古时用两块砖的厚度筑起长墙，把敌台连接起来，称为单边长城，是京北万里长城中最为险要的一段。（右边的这幅照片是不是找不到长城啊？您得仔细看看，因为这是司马台的单边长城，它的城墙几乎与山溶成一体了。这照片是国庆前摄影记者从直升机上所摄，放到网上来当然显得小了。不过，即使是在八寸的照片上看，我也花了好半天的时间才看出来的。）
WELCOME, WORLD
There were cheers, and there was applause. The Olympic torch climbed the Great Wall Thursday, the last day of China's seven-year wait. The red Chinese national flag, with the five yellow stars, fluttered everywhere, welcoming one and all to the Olympic Games.

Beijing was awash in colors, giving it the look of a grand festival on the eve of the Games' opening ceremony. But this, as many people said, was once-in-a-lifetime festival. The sights and sounds were varied, carnival-like all the same, with restaurants and cabbies doing brisk business.
The capital airport saw its busiest day Thursday, handling more than 300 Olympic-related flights that carried VIP guests, athletes and sports officials.
More than 60 heads of state, or government, including US President George W. Bush, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin and Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd, reached Beijing yesterday.
Back in the heart of the city, President Hu Jintao went through one of his busiest days, meeting with 11 foreign leaders in the Great Hall of the People. By Monday, he would have met with 70 leaders of different countries, Bush, Putin and Japanese Prime Minister Yasuo Fukuda being among them.
Just outside the Great Hall of the People, the crowd was thin on Tian'anmen Square - perhaps because most of the tourists had opted for the Great Wall or the Olympic venues. The Forbidden City seemed to maintain its usual attraction, though.
Traffic was light on the roads, and the special arrangements for the Games, including the Olympic lanes, were working fine.
The weather forecast for today was a bit of concern, however. The Beijing Meteorological Bureau forecast said Aug 8 would be cloudy with possibility of rain. But it did not specify when a shower could be expected.
At the Great Wall, a brief ceremony was held at the foot of the Badaling section before the first torchbearer and famous test pilot, Li Zhonghua, began his climb at 7:10 am. "If you fail to reach the Great Wall, you are not a man," he said, quoting Mao Zedong, after completing his stretch of about 50 m.
He was followed by 17 others who carried the torch on its 900-m stretch, 15-minute journey on the wall. After passing through two beacon towers, last runner Wang Ning climbed up to the Beisi Tower, and held aloft the sacred flame to the deafening applause of the crowd below.
From there, the torch traveled to the Temple of Earth on the penultimate day of its relay.
With less than one day to go for the Games, public excitement has reached fever pitch. The thrill is not confined to only people with a ticket to the opening ceremony. The not-so-lucky ones, too, are equally in the grip of an unknown sensation.
A couple have flown in from Hawaii. Though ethnic Chinese, they are fourth-generation Americans. But they have just one ticket between them for the opening ceremony. The husband, however, has agreed to let wife Julie Chiu Au attend it.
Though this will be their third Games, Chiu is desperate to see what China will come up with at the gala. She is proud of everything China has achieved in such a short time. Of special interest to her are Beijing's new buildings and architecture.

Chinese Kung-fu
Chinese Martial Arts known asChinese Kung-fuby most foreigners, is a traditional Chinese physical activity with thousands of years of history. As a precious element ofChina's culturalheritage, Chinese Kung-fu has also won its name all around the world for its broad and deep meanings and its Oriental features, which cover it with a mysterious veil.
The origin ofChinese Kung-fu, according to some historical records and antique discoveries, can be dated back even to prehistoric times. Survival back then meant scrambling to take or protect food from others and animals.Kicking,boxingandblockingwere a part of daily life. In the later primitive societies these skills began to appear at ceremonial rituals where they were combined with dance to represent their heroes, thus forming the earliest series of Kong-fu moves and performances.
