Its so amazing to build such unique and beautiful buildings without even the use of nails :]

[blipbaii]

because they didnt use any nails for those buildings, the buildings is more stronger against earth quake, because it does not have the nails to keep them all so tight together, the wood pieces that connect the parts of the building together will just move back and forth without causing a calapse when theirs a earthquake

Lol China was also a big theft and still is today lol China stole other people inventions, credits,ect..

Don't u people know that the Beijing Forbidden City was built by the Vietnamese architect.

Sometime things that existed in China that doesn't meant they were invented by the Chinese, especially by the Han Chinese.!!!

I heard that the Hall of Supreme Harmony of the forbidden city was burn down 7 times due to lightning. So why don't they just build them using brick and stone?

[Ginne86]

you are absolutely correct.

China was great, creative and sharing. But now its sad that the people inside are suffering under the CCP brutal totalitarian regime and even deprived from the basic human rights. Citizens are subjected to be locked in prison for simple freedom of expression and people have to live under constant fear. Shame of Communist Party

Free China and Free Tibet from Communist regime.

Rudeness, arrogance, extreme impulsiveness, and worst of all: lack of common sense.

Hmmm, you might want to reread your comment.

When I was a teen,I had a teacher who speculated about certain humans(females) being impregnated by extraterrestrial beings....lol. The idea he conveyed to us was that orientals with such craniums were not entirely human...that was kind of a cruel staement. But never mind their ugly aesthetical characteristics....U won't really know their silly character until u interact with all those orientals. RUDENESS,ARROGANCE,EXTREME IMPULSIVENESS,AND THE WORST OF ALL: LACK OF COMMON SENSE!!!
