The stone stalactite appeared on the ancient city wall of the Ming Dynasty, which is still a myste

This incident happened in the past two years, in the ancient city wall of Nanjing, there are some stone stalactites in caves.

And the experts have not given an answer yet, and we still need to explore.

Nanjing is a very famous city, and there are many ancient city walls here, and just recently, a section of the ancient city wall of the Ming Dynasty has emerged with stone stalactites, attracted the attention of many people, and even came to visit. Because our understanding of stone stalactites is that they are only found in some caves. There are karst caves in many mountains in our country, and the "stone stalactites" in the karst caves rendered by colorful lights are very beautiful, and almost all people who like to travel and play have seen them, but the long stone stalactites on this city wall are really the first time to see.

Now this peculiar phenomenon, the official has not given a real answer, and experts are also studying itHowever, there is a widely circulated saying that the former city wall was covered with glutinous rice juice, and now it is overflowing. Some scholars believe that the city wall of Nanjing.

Use granite as the foundation, and then fill the brick joints with tung oil, as well as glutinous rice juice, so that it is so strong. But the "Daming Huidian".

It is said that the adhesive material used to build the Nanjing city wall did not have glutinous rice juice.

There are still many experts who want toVarious advanced methods have been used to know the composition of this adhesive material, but nothing has come of it. Some even use modern advanced scientific and technological means to analyze, but the results can only interpret the inorganic components, and the organic components cannot be determined. Therefore, the Ming city wall of Nanjing.

Whether the adhesive material has glutinous rice juice components remains to be further studied.

However, it is worth mentioning that the first people to discover the strange sights of the city are not the residents of the neighborhood, but the people who love photography tourismIt seems that everyone needs a pair of eyes that are good at observing beauty.

You may have never heard of the "stone stalactites" on the city wall, When you read the ** in my blog post,There are caves in many mountains all over our country.

At the end of April this year, I went back to my hometown of Nanjing, and under the introduction and accompaniment of my brother who is a veteran photographer, I went to the Ming City Wall, which was only a 10-minute walk from my former residenceI saw that there was a section of the high Ming city wall that was only a few dozen meters long and showed gray and white "patches", and my brother told me that it was "stalactites". I picked up the camera in a daze and zoomed in on the telephoto to take a closer look: Ahhh

I was stunned! However, I found a report in the Yangtze Evening News (Nanjing) on April 12, 2011, "Is glutinous rice juice used as the adhesive of the Ming City Wall?" The text reads:

What is the exact composition of the adhesive material between the bricks of the Nanjing City Wall? There is no official history, and there is no record of the wild history, but the story of Zhu Yuanzhang using glutinous rice juice to build a city has been passed down from generation to generation.

Some scholars even believe that the Nanjing city wall was "very strong because of its granite foundation and the pouring of tung oil, glutinous rice juice and lime juice into the brick joints". However, in the "Daming Huidian", the only adhesive material involved in the construction of the Nanjing city wall is limeThere is no mention of glutinous rice juice.

Many experts and scholars have tried to decipher the composition of this adhesive material by various methods, and some even use modern scientific and technological means to conduct spectral analysis, but the result is only to interpret the inorganic components, while the organic components are difficult to determine.

Therefore, whether the adhesive material of Nanjing Ming City Wall has glutinous rice juice composition remains to be further studied. Although the growth of stone stalactites is very slowBut one day it will be connected to the bottom, and it will become a "stone pillar" that stands up to the sky and the earth, and the stone pillars are connected together to form a "stone curtain".

Because the "stone stalactite" on the ancient city of the Ming Dynasty is not recorded in the official history, there is no record of the wild history.

There is no record in history. But the story of Zhu Yuanzhang building a city with glutinous rice juice has been passed down from generation to generation.

There are karst caves in many Dasanli all over our country, and the stalactites are indeed a mystery to this day.

I have heard the story of Zhu Yuanzhang building a city with glutinous rice juice, and I don't know if such stone stalactites have something to do with it.

There are karst caves in many mountains all over our country, but I don't know if Zhu Yuanzhang's use of glutinous rice juice to build the city has anything to do with stone stalactites.

There are caves in many mountains in our country, and many of them are very old.
