Discovering China

If I have to choose the visit that I enjoyed the most in China, It would be our two days trip to Beijing, and here is why.

The main reason it’s because in Beijing are the most famous places of China, that is to say: The forbidden city, the  temple of Heaven, The Olympic Mille and the Great Wall. Lets focus on the last one which is one of the seven wonders of the modern world and it impressed me a lot, more than anything I have seen in my life so far.

As a civil engineer, I spent last 6 years of my life studying this topic, I mean this kind of projects, the biggest ones like highways, Dams, Bridges Tunnels etc. Although I can not even imagine how many years of planification it took. For example from where they brought this huge amount of Stone ore ven how many human lifes it cost, It’s terryfing.

However, as i said, I am an enfgineer so that I would have loved to have played an important role in this wonderful Project that is going to be admired and remembered forever. Its the longer structure all over the world, more dan 6500 kilometers, it is said that you can see it from the space  although it actually depends on from where in the space you are looking and if you are watching it using a telescope or not.

At last but not least I would like to talk about the pollution, not only in beijing but also in the rest of China. Back in Spain I used to think that people could be overreacting when they´d talked to me about the pollution in China. However as son as we landed it dawn on us that they weren’t overreacting at all. In fact the mayority of us we have come back to Spain with a terrible throat ache.

To sum up I would like to encourage you to visit China If you haven’t done. It’s such an amazing country, very different from Europe or America and where  I  have learnt a lot.
