To determine how many times more people visit the Great Wall of China than Times Square, you can use the following calculation:

\[ \text{Number of visitors to the Great Wall} \div \text{Number of visitors to Times Square} = \frac{176}{174} \]

Now, performing the division:

\[ \frac{176}{174} \approx 1.0115 \]

This means that on average, approximately 1.01 times more people visit the Great Wall than Times Square, which is effectively 1 time more.

None of the given response options correctly match this calculation. However, if we clarify that "1 time more" equates to more or less equal visitation, the closest answer would be that it is "2 times more," but that is not an accurate representation based on the calculations.

Therefore, the correct evaluation depends on the context given, but according to calculations:

\[ \text{Answer} \approx 1 \text{ time more} \]

If choosing from available answers, "2 times more" might be the nearest safe option given the context, but with the numbers, it's actually close to equal.
