       | I wish people would stop linking to phys.org. It's primarily a

             | 
             | the word 'published' links to the MDPI paper

       | This wall is usually referred to as Wall of Chinggis, although it
       | has nothing to do with Genghis Khan. Here's another paper from
       | _Nature_ about it:

       | Here's an interesting link that gives place names so you can look
       | up the wall on Google maps (not much to see):
       | https://www.escapetomongolia.com/blog/wall-of-chinggis-in-do....
       | According to it the wall starts at Bayan-Adarga
       | (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayan-Adarga,_Khentii) and
       | continues to Gurvanzagal
       | (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gurvanzagal).
