If you want to find out<br />

about the price to be paid<br />

for trying to escape from the<br />

divine powers, we invite you to<br />

run 1,400 yards in just over<br />

1 minute.<br />

China<br />

The journey begins at the delta of the legendary Yang Tse (Yellow River), coinciding with the<br />

birth of the son of the Emperor for the Shang Dynasty (1766-1<strong>12</strong>2 b.c.), so you will find some<br />

halls decorated with commemorative flags.<br />

At the Port of Waitan you can get a junk and sail to the old Mediterranean Sea (two of the four junks were brought from<br />

China and the other two are precious replicas of the real ones). But, if you prefer to continue your journey through<br />

this wide country, get deep into the agricultural town of Xaimpang, in which upper side the Emperor has settled<br />

his Summer residence: a recreation of Beijing’s “Ciudad Prohibida” (Forbidden City). If you keep walking to the<br />

outskirts, you will find a Mongolian camp at the borders of the Gran Muralla (Great Wall) (an exact reproduction,<br />

both as regards of materials and size, of a stretch of the Wall located in Badaling, just 25 miles away from Beijing).<br />

Genuine script<br />

Yen Xuen Lin, a teacher in Chinese brush in Barcelona, took charge of the sign painting for the whole China area,<br />

in order to ensure a faithful theme featuring. She herself, based on the type of building, created a message and<br />

changed the scripting. At the port of Waitan messages of all kinds can be read, from official announcement to<br />

personal requests. The messages, in order to avert bad luck are never written on a white background.<br />

Therefore, there is no other possible impression but that of feeling deeply involved in the Asian culture and<br />

landscapes. A bamboo forest and vegetation, perfectly made to fit the them and at the same time respectful to the<br />

Mediterranean climate, lead us to an atmosphere plenty of surprises, exotism and authenticity.<br />
