The Chinese are good at copying.
The tendency of China’s mass copying Western products is well known.
Local craftsmen do not pay attention even to the extent of the work: what a pair of jeans riveted that quickly build the Eiffel tower in a remote province. Yes not one, but several. And not only Parisian symbol “transported” to the Chinese: look, on the territory of a single country increase quality replicas of architectural monuments from around the world.
Colosseum
The Chinese absolutely refuse to understand why the Roman Coliseum could not be located in Macau. The rostrum of this architectural forgery can accommodate 2,000 people. Fortunately, to admire the audience does not come Gladiator fights, but only charity concerts.
Sydney Opera house
Imitation of the Sydney bridge leads to the same fake Sydney Opera house. The building was erected in a small Park, and built “the theatre” by the local philanthropist.
The Kremlin
This building is a pure replica. The investor apparently was so impressed with the trip to Moscow, which decided to build your own Kremlin, with business and secretaries. White stone walls, the Golden dome: under the bright tinsel Beijing “Kremlin” have the usual office building.
The Louvre Pyramid
The Louvre in Paris, the vast majority of the world knows of the “Mona Lisa” and the pyramid at the entrance. The masterpiece of Leonardo da Vinci the Chinese were not too tough, but the pyramid of local architects recreated without difficulty.
Eiffel tower
Hundred-meter copy of the French Eiffel tower stands in a closed Chinese town of Tianducheng. The adjacent Park is also an attempt to recreate the famous Champs-elysées.
The Parthenon
Directorate theme Park Lanzhou (Gansu province) for some reason decided to make a copy of the Parthenon in Athens trump card. Admittedly, the move worked, and now the replica of the Greek temple is considered one of the most popular tourist attractions throughout the province.
Sphinx
Great Sphinx of Giza towers over an unfinished theme Park in Chuzhou, China. Rumored to be on the site soon will appear not only copies of the pyramids (full size), but even a small desert.
Tower bridge
A replica of the tower bridge was built in Suzhou four years ago. Lifting parts up, but it is exactly two times larger than the original. Why? Who can understand the mysterious soul of the Chinese architect!
The leaning tower of Pisa
The leaning tower of Pisa in Shanghai is over ten thousand kilometers from the actual monument. However, people in Shanghai are doing exactly the same stupid pictures like keep arms shattered tower.
Karnak Temple
A copy of the Egyptian temple of Karnak located in an abandoned Park Wang, the province of Wuhan. Under the new development plan of the region, close to the site of the former Park will soon begin construction of another Chinese metropolis. Sooner or later replica of Karnak may well be in someone’s yard.
