Ancient Great Wall Inspires Modern Protection Efforts 🏛️🗡️

🎶 Big Dipper gleams, and Geshu Han stands
Dead of the night, with a sword in hand…

This centuries-old poem echoes through Lintao County, where a 2,000-year-old section of the Great Wall built by the Qin Dynasty still stands—a fading earthen ridge with stories to tell. 🌄

Local legislative officer Yang Xin is on a mission: gathering community feedback to update China's cultural relics protection law. His latest chat? With Zhao Qinghua, a Chinese language teacher who grew up near the Wall and now fights to preserve it. 📜

\"The Wall isn't just history—it's our identity,\" Zhao explains. His ideas, alongside others', could shape new policies to protect sites like Lintao's Wall through education and sustainable tourism. 🧑🏫

Once a military marvel, this ancient structure now unites locals in a modern quest: balancing heritage conservation with 21st-century needs. Will updated laws keep its legacy alive? 💡
