What are the wonders of Twin Towers and Flying Stones?

65,438+00 kilometers west of the famous chengde mountain resort, there is a ridge extending from north to south. Above the ridge, two thick red rock pillars stand tall, rising from south to north against the sky, standing side by side, just like the north-south twin towers made of red bricks. This is the famous Twin Towers Mountain.

Due to geological action, the formation of this landform is not very strange. The wonder of the Twin Towers is that at the top of this volley, there are indeed two real brick towers. The North Tower is too small to see clearly. You can see the South Tower clearly from below.

Chengde Shuangtashan

These two brick pagodas were built in Liao Dynasty and are the oldest buildings in Chengde. Who is it and how to build these two brick towers on this abrupt stone pillar, away from human fireworks? Shuangta Mountain is more than 30 meters high, which is equivalent to the current 9-story high. The stone pillars are thick on the top and thin on the bottom, which is absolutely difficult to climb. /kloc-did Liao people use modern pulley cranes to lift building materials to the top of the mountain more than 0/000 years ago? This seems unlikely.

The construction method of the twin towers on the mountain is also full of doubts and surprises. The foundation of the two towers is built directly on the top of the mountain, with three layers of bricks and the north wall is built in a joint way, so there is only one. The other three sides are all made of common seam pressing method.

Before 1976, the wall on the north side of the twin towers cracked along the masonry joint, showing an inclined state and a large displacement. But after the Tangshan earthquake, the cracked gap was closed and stronger than before.

Chengde is located in the earthquake zone. Is the seismic structure summarized by the ancients the only joint masonry method in the world? This seems to be a kind of practice without much scientific reason, but in fact it has achieved the effect of safety and earthquake prevention.

About 24 kilometers from Pune, Maharashtra, India, there is a small village called Shivori. There is a temple in the village dedicated to the Sufi saint Kama Ali Darfan. The flying stone is in this temple. There are two stones * * *, the big one is about 70kg, and the other one is a little lighter. An incredible phenomenon is that if 1 1 people point to the rock with their right index finger and shout the name of the sage "Kama Ali Darfan" in unison, then this big stone will float into the air about 2 meters and hang there. As soon as the sound stopped, it landed. The small one only needs nine people.

Mark Boal didn't believe it at first, and he joined the experimenter, but the big stone bounced up and rose into the air, trying again and again. Later, Belfo made this strange landscape into a movie.
