This category may include suggestions made too late to fall into the correct grouping.

Please add new suggestions below if you have them for future consideration.

I am particularly in need of more specific non-European suggestions in particular, but all suggestions are welcome.

Marina Abramović on Her Epic Walk Across the Great Wall of China: ‘This Is the Best Thing I’ve Ever Done’

Abramović recalls a time she got lost during the early hours of the morning. “I don’t have a good sense of direction; I always get lost. My orientation is never good. I went up too early and ended up walking completely in the wrong direction for six hours,” she laughed. “The soldiers didn’t tell me because they didn’t want to offend me. I don’t know why they didn’t speak up. Then I arrived at a spot I had already photographed, and I realized, ‘Oh my god, I’ve been here!’ Everyone laughed, and we went back.”

Excerpt from Marina Abramović's interview for Artnet.

Shoulder to shoulder, a ring of brothers, a current of blood no longer confined within the narrow circulation of one body, but sweetly rolling and yet ever returning throughout the endless leagues of China.

The Great Wall, China

The Great Wall is more than 2,300 years old (9+ dynasties' worth). The official length is 21,196.18 km (13,170.7 mi), half the equator!
