the Great Wall is unique. It was first built in the 7th century B.C. when China was still divided into many small states. After the unification of China in 221 B.C., the first emperor of Qin Dynasty (you must have heard of his teracotta army) linked the walls of the three states in the north and formed the first "Wan Li Chang Cheng" (ten thousand li Great Wall, li is a Chinese length unit, 2 li = 1 km). Since then, the Great Wall was rebuilt, modified or extended throughout Chinese history for over 2,000 years. Most of the Great Wall we see today was built in the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644). In some areas, two walls built in two different dynasties can be seen running side by side.

What year was the great wall was build?

The Great Wall of China wasn't built in one, or even a few, years. It started out as a bunch of smaller walls built around 400 BC. When Emperor Qin Shihuangdi ruled China around 220 BC to 206 BC, he began a project to connect these walls, to make a longer wall, and protect China from invaders. However, most of this part of the wall no longer remains. Most of the modern Great Wall of China was built by the Ming Dynasty, up until the 1500s. The Great Wall of China, despite its tremendous length, was unable to prevent invaders from attacking China, and thousands of workers died building the wall. So even though it is majestic, it is really a tragedy.
