🇨🇳 欢迎来到中国

Welcome to China!

The Great Wall of China was built to protect the Empire from invasions for many centuries. It is not only an icon of Chinese history and culture, it is also our representative of Asia in the Wanderlust Collection of MiniWorld3D!

We made it with considerations for miniature printing, so it is easy to print and has great details even with regular-sized nozzles.

The Great Wall known today is actually a series of ancient walls, built, connected and maintained over centuries. The earliest records of a wall date to the 7th century. The sections more popular nowadays and depicted in our model were built during the Ming dynasty (1368–1644) (from Wikipedia).

This model was created by Dany Sánchez.

This publication includes:

1.  The original model from 2014
2.  An updated version from 2022, improved with more details and eliminating overhangs

MiniWorld3D is happy to bring this model to life as a homage to all the people of China. This model was created from scratch by hand and brain to ensure printability in a beautifully stylized version of your favorite landmarks. Please give credit, it's all about spreading culture!

Printing Tips

Suggested parameters:

For better details, print slow, such as 20mm/s for outer perimeters.
Fine-tune retraction to avoid stringing.
Perimeters: 2
Top layers: 3
Infill: as low as 5% for miniatures, 12% if scaled larger. Lightning pattern suggested.

No supports needed, this has been optimized to eliminate all overhangs.

Brim or raft not needed.
