June 8 is Cultural and Natural Heritage Day 2024.

As the largest existing cultural heritage in our country, the Great Wall is an important symbol of the Chinese nation and an important symbol of the sustainable inheritance of the Chinese nation's spirit.

Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, General Secretary Xi Jinping has attached great importance to the inheritance and protection of the cultural relics and heritage of the Great Wall and the exploration of cultural value, and has issued important instructions on many occasions to promote the continuous deepening of various tasks.

"The Great Wall is a representative symbol of the Chinese nation and an important symbol of Chinese civilization. It embodies the Chinese nation's spirit of continuous struggle for self-improvement and its patriotic sentiments of unity and perseverance." On May 14, General Secretary Xi Jinping gave a speech to Stone in Badaling Town, Yanqing District, Beijing. The folks in Xiancun wrote back, profoundly explaining the unique value of the Great Wall and the significance of protecting the Great Wall, and encouraged everyone to "pass on this precious wealth left by our ancestors from generation to generation."

In the history of Chinese civilization and the development of traditional Chinese culture, the Great Wall has irreplaceable value and status.

Protecting the towering Great Wall requires the joint efforts of many parties. In 1984, Deng Xiaoping, Xi Zhongxun and other leading comrades wrote inscriptions for the "Love China, Build the Great Wall" campaign launched by some units in the capital, inspiring the enthusiasm of all sectors of society to protect the Great Wall. Over the past 40 years, a large number of Chinese people have continued their strength, worked hard for a long time, and protected the spiritual roots of the Chinese nation with their steps and sweat.
