Wanzhou, Wanxian, Chongqing - China Travel Channel
Wanzhou (万州区), formerly called Wanxian, was built from scratch and is a district of Chongqing with 1.7 million inhabitants today. We had the opportunity to visit the home of a retired factory employee. The large roof garden suggests that he is more likely to be among the more privileged residents.
In the video you see older women who practice Tai Chi on the road. Developed as a martial arts, the name Tai Chi is used today as expression for the gymnastics, that serves for meditation and strengthening health. A typical Chinese market offers all daily food necessities, such as meat, fresh vegetables and cooking ingredients listed.
In the local museum, old hanging coffins from two millennia are displayed belonging to the descendants of the Tujia nationality (土家族) with a population of 8.3 million. We saw some hanging coffins of the Tuja already in the valley of the Shennong River. A coffin weights approx. 400 kg and was always built for 2 persons. From the genetic examinations of the decedents one knows that it was usual to give a young man a slightly older woman as a companion. The women showed holes in their head, so one can emanate a violent death. Two models also show the methods as the coffins were brought to the vertical walls.
The steep steps to the ship's landing -- simultaneously a washing place for laundry , or beating the laundry as the Chinese say, show us for a very brief time the true level of the river.

Wanzhou (万州区), früher Wanxian genannt, wurde völlig neu errichtet und ist heute ein Stadtbezirk der Stadt Chongqing mit 1,7 Millionen Einwohnern. Uns bietet sich die Gelegenheit die Wohnung eines pensionierten Fabrikangestellten zu besichtigen. Der große Dachgarten inmitten der Stadt lässt darauf schließen, dass er eher zu den privilegierteren Einwohnern zu zählen ist.
Im Video sehen Sie ältere Frauen die auf der Straße Tai-Chi praktizieren. Als Kampfkunst entwickelt, ist Tai-Chi heute auch die Bezeichnung für Gymnastik die der Meditation und Stärkung der Gesundheit dient. Auf einem typisch chinesischen Markt werden alle Dinge des täglichen Lebens, wie Fleisch, frisches Gemüse und Zutaten, gehandelt.
Im örtlichen Museum sind zwei Jahrtausende alte, hängende Särge der Verstorbenen der 8,3 Millionen zählenden Tujia-Nationalität (土家族) aus der Nähe zu betrachten, die uns bereits im Tal des Shennong - Flusses begegnet waren. Ein Sarg wiegt ca. 400 kg und war immer für 2 Personen gebaut worden. Aus den genetischen Untersuchungen der Verstorbenen weiß man, dass es üblich war, einem jungen Mann, eine etwas ältere Frau als Begleiterin mitzugeben. Die Frauen wiesen in der Regel Löcher im Kopf auf, so dass man einen gewaltsamen Tod annehmen kann. Zwei Modelle zeigen auch die Methoden wie die Särge in die senkrechten Wände gebracht wurden.
Die steilen Treppen zu den Landungsbrücken der Schiffe, die gleichzeitig zum Wäschewaschen - im Chinesischen auch Wäscheklopfen genannt -- dienen, zeigen den Pegel des Flusses.

Schatzkammerberg, Dazu, Chongqing - China Travel Channel
62 miles west of Chongqing you can visit the Dazu Rock Carvings ( 大 足 石刻 ). In the hillsides around the city of Dazu 50 000 statues were carved in the rocks. Most are located on the North Hill and the Treasure Chest Mountain - Baoding Shan. The Treasure Chest Mountain, 6.3 miles northeast of Dazu, is the second most important mountain for Buddhists in China. Baoding Shan with its 10,000 sculptures has become a bible written in stone for the Buddhists.
Most of these statues were made in the 11th and 12th Century. The statues show the Buddhist deities. They also show many examples of actions and their various punishments after death. Punishment can be avoided if you live a devout life and enter into Nirvana.
Next to the sleeping Buddha, with a length of 98 ft, is Guanyin (觀音 - 观音) the God of Mercy with 1000 hands and 1000 eyes. It is the best known statue and appeared earlier in the form of a man and later in the form of a woman, as seen here during the Song Dynasty.
Since 1999, the rock sculptures of Dazu are on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

100 km westlich von Chongqing befindet sich die Felsskulpturen von Dazu - 大足石刻. 50000 Statuen wurden in der näheren Umgebung aus dem Fels geformt. Die meisten befinden sich am Nordberg und am Schatzkammerberg - Baoding Shan.
Der Schatzkammerberg, 10 km nordöstlich von Dazu, ist der zweitwichtigste Berg für Buddhisten in China. Mit seinen 10.000 Statuen ist er eine zu Stein gewordene Bibel für Buddhisten.
Die meisten dieser Statuen wurden im 11. und 12. Jahrhundert erstellt und zeigen neben Gottheiten viele Beispiele, für welche Taten man nach dem Tode welche Strafe zu erwarten hat, es sei denn, man schafft durch rechtgläubiges Leben den Einzug ins Nirwana.
Neben dem 30 m langen schlafenden Buddha ist Guanyin, die Göttin der Barmherzigkeit mit 1.000 Händen und 1.000 Augen, die bekannteste Skulptur und wurde früher als Mann dargestellt, später, wie in diesem Beispiel aus der Song Dynastie, war sie eine Frau.
Seit 1999 stehen die Felsskulpturen von Dazu auf der UNESCO Welterbe-Liste.

Wanzhou, Market, Chongqing - China Travel Channel
Although Wanzhou, a district of Chongqing, was built from scratch as part of the Three Gorges Dam project, the residents still live to some extent in their old traditions. The best way to experience this is on a typical Chinese market. All aspects of daily life, such as meat, fish, fresh vegetables, cooking ingredients, as well as household goods, textiles and clothing are offered.
As one can see in the video, the Chinese parents proudly present their children in front of the camera.
You can see Bang Bangs - as the Chinese coolies, with their typical cross-bars of bamboo on her back, are called in Sichuan and Chongqing - pushing through the throngs of people over again. The Bang Bangs constantly provide the merchants with fresh supply, thus ensuring enough products on offer.

Wie man im Video sehen kann, präsentieren die Chinesen stolz ihre Kinder vor der Kamera.
Mitten durch das Menschengewühl drängen sich immer wieder „Bangbangs, wie die chinesischen Kulis mit ihren typischen Querstangen aus Bambus auf ihrem Rücken in Sichuan bzw. Chongqing genannt werden. Ständig sorgen die Bangbangs für Nachschub damit das reichhaltige Angebot nicht versiegt.
