Great Wall Protection
Inner Mongolia boasts a 7,570-km stretch, or 35 percent, of the Great Wall.
To strengthen protection, the regional government has approved the establishment of a Great Wall protection center, which is affiliated with the regional culture department.
Protective nets and fences will be set up along sections of the Great Wall near villages and damaged parts will be restored in the next three years.
Protection stations are scheduled to be built in some cities and training will be organized as well.
The region will also cooperate with neighboring provinces to protect and launch joint patrols along the Great Wall.
