Beijing: Science and Technology Empowerment Great Wall Protection

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, August 21 (Reporter Luo Xin) At the 2022 Beijing Great Wall Cultural Festival held here, Chen Mingjie, director of the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Cultural Heritage, introduced that in recent years, Beijing will introduce archeological excavations into the Great Wall protection and repair. Protection provides new methods and new paths for the protection of the Great Wall ontology and the research of Great Wall.

Chen Mingjie said that in 2021, the Great Wall Repair of Liugou section of Yanqing District became the first rescue project to introduce Great Wall archeology. The construction regulations and engineering practices of the Great Wall enemy platforms in the Ming Dynasty were clarified, and the undertaking relationship of the construction time of the enemy platform and the Great Wall wall was clarified.

"In the past, when the Great Wall collapsed brick walls, the construction staff might clear them, but now because of the introduction of archeological excavations, experts can read from historical information, providing an important design reference and protection basis for subsequent Great Wall rescue and reinforcement work. "Chen Mingjie said.

According to reports, in 2022, Beijing carried out the Great Wall and Great Wall archeological excavations of the Great Wall and Huairou District of Yanqing District, respectively, and identified the foundation of the Great Wall's enemy platforms and architectural shapes, showing the decline of the wall. For the first time, the Great Wall archeology of the Huairou District was found on the top of the enemy platform in Beijing Great Wall to find the relics such as the Ming Dynasty fire and the stove site. It also unearthed living utensils such as pots, plates, bowls, scissors, shovels, and restored the daily life of the Ming Dynasty soldiers. The two stone monuments found in archeology clearly record that the construction historical facts were built in the twelve years of Wanli and the walls were built in the 25th year of Wanli, indicating that the construction of single buildings was earlier than the Great Wall walls. The appearance and evolution of the system greatly enriches the cultural connotation of the Great Wall of Arrows.

"In recent years, Beijing has actively explored the protection of scientific and technological empowerment of cultural heritage and created the results of the" Cloudy -travel Great Wall "series. Users can" cross' to the Great Wall through their mobile phones and experience the "climbing the Great Wall 'and' Cultivation Great Wall" online. Among them, we tried to use new technologies such as digital technology and intelligent sensors to monitor the Great Wall body and surrounding environment, and change the monitoring methods that used to rely on traditional artificial inspections. "Chen Mingjie said.

It is reported that there are nearly 30 record museums in the six districts along the Great Wall of Beijing. The renovation and upgrading project of the China Great Wall Museum in Yanqing District is expected to be completed by the end of 2025. The Great Wall Great Wall Anti -Japanese War Museum and the Great Wall Museum of the Great Wall in Beijing will jointly develop linkage to promote the spread and exchanges of the Great Wall with higher exhibitions.
