BEIJING, Aug. 14, 2019 (Xinhua) -- A section of the Great Wall re-appeared recently above the water surface of the Panjiakou reservoir in north China's Hebei Province due to dropping of the reservoir's water level. The section, built in ancient China's Ming Dynasty (1368-1644), had been submerged after the reservoir was completed.
