Yangshan in China can only be described as a megalithic mystery. There is nothing else like this in China it’s a total one off. Just look at this thing! It obviously had a working function. It was supposedly built in the 1400’s as a tomb but personally I suspect it’s much older. Although unique in China this megalith is reminiscent of the structures in Peru.
One stone is 17meters high, with a width of 29.5meters and a thickness of 12 meters, totally 16250 tons heavy. Another one is 51meters high, 14.2 wide, 4.5meters thick and 8799 tons heavy. The third stone is 10 meters high, 22meters wide, 10.3meters thick and 6118 tons heavy.
If we combine the three stones together, they will form a huge complete stele, which is 78meters, as high as a building of 28 storeys. And the weight of the huge stele is 31.167million kilograms, a rare stele and a marvelous spectacle in the world.
