Yellow River Grand Iron Bull Statue, Shanxi, China
3.5 (3 reviews) Wednesday: 12:00 AM - 11:59 PM Spent Ranking #7 in Yongji Architectural Buildings • Monuments & Statues
Engineering marvel
These bulls, I thought they were bronze, are fantastic. They anchored the ropes of the ferry that crossed at this point. If you go to the museum, you can go below the bulls and see how the footings are angled to counteract the force of the rope, ferry and river. The human characters accompanying each bull are from the different regions of China at that time, 700 -750 AD. True, it is far from tourist areas, but well worth the stop. I am glad we visited in 2013.
