 curiosities and myths of the Chinese wall

 

•  It measures 21,000 kilometers!  The Chinese wall measures almost twice the diameter of the Earth and half its circumference. What is spectacular?
• the wall took 2000 years to build and was the work of several dynasties that were doing their bit, and never better said! Construction began around 200 BC and officially ended in 1644 with the overthrow of the Ming dynasty.
• Is it build with human bones? The origin of the myth is that many workers died during it's construction and were sometimes buried right there, in the foundations of the wall.

If many workers died in construction, possibly it would not be a myth

If astronauts were to see the wall of china from space it must be gigantic

If we could see the Chinese wall from space, there would be space trips to see them

Chengdu

Do you need to see those cute little back and white bears your own eyes? In Chengdu there are many centers for the conservation and breeding of these endangered animals, in many of them you will be able to seepanda bears in semifreedom surrounded by bamboo. Go very early in the morning, which is when they are most active, and be sure to find out about these places before you go, the good condition of the animals comes first.

If pandas have been important in Chinese culture, there should be hundreds of them and they should not be on the verge of extinction.

They should be free and not be in zoos but in their habitats.

Xi'an

As if contemplating an army from the 3rd centuary B.C. With more than 8000 life_size terracotta figures, with it's entourage of horses and carriages it was not enough of an excuse to travel to Xi'an, this city is considered the eastern end of the famous Silk Road.

If they took care of their emperor his remains were already there

If they were made in clay they should be in worse condition.

Leshan Buddha

On the side of a cliff, at the confluence of the Dadu, Jianng and Qingyi rivers and a few hours from Chengdu, stands the tallest stone Buddha statue in the world. the Leshan Buddha reaches 71 meters in height and was sculped in the 8th century with the aim of watching over the course or rivers so wild that they swallowed any ship that sailed through them. Curretly you can visit it's annex temple, that of Dafo, where you can find more Buddhist statues and then contemplate the great Buddha with your own eyes.

If I knew the Buddha of Leshan it would give me an impression of greatness

The generations were very ingenious if they would be helped by UFOs as nowadays even engineers are surprised.

The legend says that it was carved by a single man, if that were the case, it must have lasted his entire life sculpting it.
