From WIki : " A gabion (from Italian gabbione meaning "big cage"; from Italian gabbia and Latin cavea meaning "cage") is a cage, cylinder or box filled with rocks, concrete, or sometimes sand and soil for use in civil engineering, road building, military applications and landscaping.

For erosion control, caged riprap is used. For dams or in foundation construction, cylindrical metal structures are used. In a military context, earth- or sand-filled gabions are used to protect sappers, infantry, and artillerymen from enemy fire.

Leonardo da Vinci designed a type of gabion called a Corbeille Leonard ("Leonard[o] basket") for the foundations of the San Marco Castle in Milan.[1]

The life expectancy of gabions depends on the lifespan of the wire, not on the contents of the basket. The structure will fail when the wire fails. Galvanized steel wire is most common, but PVC-coated and stainless steel wire are also used. PVC-coated galvanized gabions have been estimated to survive for 60 years.[3] Some gabion manufacturers guarantee a structural consistency of 50 years.[4]

Gabion wall construction is frequently employed along hillsides and roadsides, particularly in the Caribbean. However, the wire mesh eventually degrades.

One of the largest parks in Fethiye, Turkiye, has walls and gateways built like this.
There are also lights included with the rocks and stones, that are solar powered and look very pretty at night.

And it remind us of the Great 🧱 wall of china that had been built thousand of years ago and still standing Strong.

[HepCatJack]

If moss is sprayed on the walls, the roots of it would further hold it in place and over time would cover the wall in greenery and improve air quality.
