🎢 Imagine diving deep under one of the world's most iconic landmarks! China has built the world's deepest high-speed railway station right beneath the Great Wall. 🇨🇳🚄
Recently, CGTN reporter Shen Shiwei teamed up with a group of American civil engineering students to explore this engineering marvel. Together, they ventured beneath the ancient stones of the Great Wall to witness how modern technology and history intertwine. 🏰🔧
The station, a part of the Beijing-Zhangjiakou high-speed railway, plunges more than 100 meters below ground. That's like stacking over 30 stories of a building underground! 🏗️⛏️
For the students, it was an eye-opening experience. \"Seeing how China balances preserving its history while pushing forward with cutting-edge infrastructure is truly inspiring,\" said one of the students. 🌏✨
This fusion of old and new showcases China's commitment to progress while honoring its rich cultural heritage. It also offers a unique adventure for travelers eager to explore beyond the surface. 🌐✈️
So, next time you're planning your epic journey, why not add a subterranean ride beneath the Great Wall to your bucket list? 🎒🌄
