Sinopsis
Chinese history dates back over 3,000 years. Through the centuries, this remarkable civilization has remained virtually untouched by outside influences. The mountains, deserts, and seas that surround China formed vast natural barriers against neighbouring civilizations. Foreign influences that did infiltrate the country, such as Buddhism, were easily absorbed by its strong, selfcontained culture. Using a beautiful selection of specially commissioned photographs, Eyewitness China brings to life the art, literature, and architecture of the great Chinese empire. Fascinating pictures and models reveal the lives and customs of its people, from peasant farmers to emperors. Discover how early farm machinery worked, examine the elaborate implements used for calligraphy, and learn about life on China`s great waterways. Finally, learn how 2,000 years of ancient tradition came to an end with the fall of the last emperor.
