I don’t think I’ve stated enough how much of a chocolate monster I am; so much so that the Godzilla in me is tempted to wreak havoc over China’s Great Chocolate Wall. Honestly, this right here is a magical feat of chocolate being held together by chocolate.

Constructed for the [World Chocolate Wonderland exhibition](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ghirardellis-sampling-event), the Great Chocolate Wall is 33 feet long. Not only that, but it also boasts an army of 560 [chocolate Terracotta Warriors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/labubu-x-godiva) to protect it against the likes of me.
