While the primary purpose of the Great Wall throughout most of its construction was defensive, during the Qing dynasty, the Great Wall became more meaningful as a symbol of Chinese culture than as an actual wall of fortification. First, the Great Wall was a symbol of Chinese strength - this society had built a 3,000-mile-long, 50-foot-high, stone wall. Such a feat is not for the faint of heart.

Second, it became a psychological wall - showing the importance to the Chinese people and the rest of the world, of China is a sovereign, independent, culture and nation. In a way, the Great Wall represents a blockade against Western ideas and culture, something many Chinese leaders and citizens feel is just as much of a threat now as the rival tribes in north China were in 300 BCE.
