Hidden Doors in The Great Wall of China
The Great Wall of China is a remarkable structure, stretching over 13,000 miles. Its construction began over two millennia ago and has been updated and modernized by different emperors over the years. Surprisingly, researchers have discovered over 220 secret doors along the wall - some allowing only one person to pass through and others accommodating horses.These doors were strategically placed to maintain the wall's defensive integrity.A research group has looked through official historical documents of the Ming Dynasty that ruled China from the 14th to the 17th centuries. They came across records of secret doors in the Great Wall, so they decided to find them. They used a flying robot to capture continuous centimeter resolution photos of the wall. They photographed 90 percent of the wall that was built during the Ming Dynasty and discovered the remains of over 220 secret doors along the wall. Some of them have a specific width and height that allows only one person to go through; others are large enough to allow two horses to pass at the same time.

His silence seemed as though he were trying to hear what I was thinking, in this long drawn out silence.
