During the National Day of 20 16, CCTV News launched a large-scale live series report "How Beautiful the Mountain is". CCTV reporters climbed to the top of famous mountains, explored the source of great rivers, went deep into the sea, photographed China with magnificent mountains and rivers, recorded China with green development, and expressed patriotic feelings with the road of building dreams.
From ancient times to the present, our civilization has never been interrupted. Whether it is the ancient canal or the Great Wall, or the bridge across natural disasters and the great cause of poverty alleviation for10 million people every year, it carries the national dream.
Today, let's walk into the Chinese dream that spans the Millennium and moves towards the future.
The large-scale excavation of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal began in the Sui Dynasty, and this great water conservancy project was finally completed in the Yuan Dynasty. The total length from Beijing to Hangzhou is 1797 km, which is the longest and largest canal in the world.
This river of life, which connects the north and south of our country, has never stopped nourishing and caring for the people on both sides of the strait, although it has been baptized by thousands of years of wind and rain. At present, 80% of the food people in Hangzhou eat, the building materials they use and the coal they burn still come from the canal.
Lingqu, built in 2 14 BC, is located in Xing 'an, Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. It flows from east to west, connecting the Ocean River in the east and the Darong River in the west, with a total length of 36 kilometers. It is one of the oldest canals in the world.
In 22 1 year BC, after Qin unified the six countries, it turned to send troops to the south, and was trapped in the transshipment of soldiers' salaries and grain, so it was impossible to enter the customs for three years, so this canal was dug for military use. Now, Lingqu has been included in the China World Cultural Heritage Reserve List by National Cultural Heritage Administration. The Jinge Iron Horse over Lingqu has a long history. More than two thousand years later, the ancient Lingqu still stands here, nourishing the land and raising the people here.
Karez, Wan Li Great Wall and Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal are also called the three major ancient projects in China.
Different from the well-known water conservancy projects, Karez is built underground, also known as the "underground canal". In Turpan, there are more than110 such karez wells, with a total length of over 5,000 kilometers.
Turpan is an extremely dry place, but in this hot and rainy place, there is rich melting water of snow-capped mountains. The local residents skillfully used the characteristics of water coming from the mountains and flowing downwards to create this irrigation project. "The undercurrent of Shili is constant and pedestrians pass by." The melted water from the snow-capped mountains escaped from the hot sun and the wind and sand, and continuously flowed into villages and fields from underground, making Turpan grapes famous all over the world.
The Badaling Great Wall in Beijing is famous for its huge and magnificent projects, and it has become one of the greatest ancient architectural projects in the world. Nowadays, the military engineering in those days seems to be more like an architectural wonder that is skillfully integrated with nature.
The indomitable spirit of the Chinese nation can be fully interpreted here. No matter how the situation changes, it always stands in the forest of the world. No matter how much suffering you have experienced, the history of 5,000 years of civilization has never stopped. One who fails to reach the Great Wall is not a hero. This is not just a climber. Isn't the builder a more admirable hero?

China is a country with the most complicated geological conditions and diverse landforms in the world. The ancients divided the territory of China into five parts: east, west, north and south. Modern geographers divide China's landforms into five basic types: plains, hills, plateaus, mountains and basins. Meanwhile, China is a country with a long history and a large population. The combination of complex and diverse geographical environment and long and splendid history has created a variety of completely different and distinctive cultures. No matter in the east, west, north and south, or in plateaus, hills and plains, in the vast territory of China, the people of China have a profound understanding of geography and their unique lifestyles and cultural customs are everywhere.
From caves in the loess plateau to karez in Turpan basin; From Hakka Tulou and Yuanlou in Fujian to the foundation city in Shanxi, China people's simple concept of adapting to local conditions and taking advantage of the situation is reflected in people's living customs, architectural types, food culture and so on.
Why do people living in the hilly basin in central Zhejiang build their own villages according to the figure of Taiji Bagua? Why is there an unbreakable legend in Zhai market in Yangcheng, Shanxi? In the deep mountains of Dali, Yunnan, is the huge Tai Chi map natural or artificial? How did the ancient village near Taiji Map become a famous town in western Yunnan? Why are there 10,000 mu of melon and fruit fields on the Gobi Desert in Turpan-Hami Basin? How do people create desert oases under harsh conditions such as strong wind and drought?
The sixth episode of the special program "How Beautiful the Mountains are", "Unfamiliar Residence", takes you to appreciate various unique cultural customs in different natural environments and the eternal truth that man and nature are interdependent.

China is a country with the most complicated mountains in the world. It is complicated because in China's mountain range system, there are not only three east-west mountain ranges of Kunlun, Qinling, Himalaya and Tianshan, but also four completely different north-south mountain ranges of Taiwan Province, Changbai and Wuyishan, Daxing 'anling, Taihang, Wushan and Hengduan. They form the three horizontal and four vertical patterns of China's mountains, and * * * isomorphism becomes the skeleton of Chinese mainland. Granite is the hardest calcium in this skeleton.
In China, there are countless famous mountains, famous mountains and fairy mountains made of granite.
Mount Tai, the east of the five mountains, is not only the head of the five mountains, but also the most precious scientific value. Following the footsteps of experts, the program group will reveal the secrets of the oldest rocks on Mount Tai for you step by step.
Among the five mountains, Mount Tai in Dongyue and Huashan in Xiyue are granite. There are large areas of granite in Hengshan Mountain in Nanyue and Songshan Mountain in Zhongyue. Only Hengshan Mountain in Beiyue is not so closely related to granite. Huangshan Mountain in Anhui Province and Sanqingshan Mountain in Jiangxi Province, which are known as "the five mountains return without looking at the mountains, and Huangshan Mountain returns without looking at the mountains", constitute a beautiful landscape picture with their beautiful granite peak forest landscape and countless granite-like stones.
In the mountains made of granite, there are not only beautiful scenery, but also unknown treasures buried deep in them.
In Funiushan District, Henan Province, a farmer accidentally discovered a high-purity "king's gold nugget". Following the experts, the film crew went deep into the hinterland of Funiu Mountain, cracked the code formed by the king's gold nugget, and searched for more buried treasures.
