    There are many mysterious things in the history of our human existence, so we have to marvel at the wisdom of the ancients and praise the ancients. In an era of scarcity of material resources and scarcity, I think the ancients were really amazing to be able to build so many buildings that make modern people breathtaking, such as the Great Wall of China, the pyramids of Egypt and the hanging gardens of ancient Babylon.

    The Hanging Gardens are known as one of the Seven Wonders of the World and are historically real. But then it was destroyed, submerged in the loess, and no longer exists.

    Then we will be particularly curious about the reason why the sky garden was built, because after all, the conditions were so difficult at that time, why did we build this sky garden?

    Let's start with the king, legend has it that the king of China built this hanging garden for his lovesick wife, it can be seen that the king especially doted on his wife. But gradually, the smile on his wife's face will become less and less, and she will be depressed all day long, and the king will be very puzzled and distressed. I thought it was because my wife was homesick and homesick, and my wife's hometown was green grass, with flowers and water everywhere, but we knew that place in Babylon was full of yellow sand, and there was no such scenery at all.

    At this time, the king made up his mind to build a hanging garden for his wife, and in order to win the smile on his wife's face, the construction of the hanging garden began.

    The Sky Garden is like a paradise on earth, it is not built in the air, but on the ground. The Hanging Gardens were full of flowers and grass, and the soil was fertile everywhere, and it rained very little in ancient Babylon, which required constant operation to transport water to ensure that the flowers and plants of the entire pavilion could be irrigated by rainwater. This statement is also generally accepted by all of us, because we know that good things can always be understood by everyone.

    It's true, but it's not hanging in the air, it's a building of varying heights that is gradually shrinking and covered with exotic flowers and plants, and it looks like it's in the air from a distance. According to archaeological records, the Hanging Gardens were royal gardens built by the Assyrian kings.

    The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were never hung in the air, of course, and the origin of the name is simply due to the mistranslation of the Greek word "kremastos" and the Latin word "pensilis", which originally meant "prominent" in addition to "hanging".

    Technically, it was not difficult to build a building similar to a pyramid, but in the shape of a terrace (like the Mayan pyramids), and put soil on the steps to grow flowers and plants.

    In order to please the princess, Babylon should not be a trivial matter.

    The reason why the Hanging Gardens of Babylon only existed for a few decades before disappearing has been debated in the archaeological community.

    Some believe that the destruction of the Hanging Gardens was due to war, and according to historical records, Babylon was the most powerful country during the reign of King Nebuchadnezzar. After more than ten years of conquest, the slave economy of Babylon developed on an unprecedented scale. However, behind the power and prosperity was already a crisis, and the hatred and rebellion of the conquered foreigners against the Babylonian slave owners began to occur, and the poor and peasants of the country became slaves because of poverty, which further exacerbated the class contradictions in the country.

    Immediately after Nebuchadnezzar's death, the domestic political situation became unstable, and the increasingly powerful Persian Empire conquered Babylon's ally, the Medes, which overwhelmed Babylon. In 538 BC, the kingdom of Babylon fell. Perhaps it was the war that caused the disappearance of the prosperous Babylonian Empire and the hanging gardens inside the Babylonian Bronze Gate.

    However, some scholars believe that the destruction of the war is unlikely, because there is no need for the warring parties to destroy a garden that has nothing to do with the change of regime. The destruction of the garden may be due to the fact that during the war, the water supply system of the Hanging Garden was shut down, so that the plants in the courtyard inevitably decayed and destroyed, and eventually became an abandoned garden, and with the change of time, it became the site of the Hanging Garden we see today.

    Hanging GardensIn Gulumbabi, the disappearance of the Hanging Gardens may have had a lot to do with the war-induced water supply system.

    Because the original construction of the sky garden is a very advanced water supply system, there is a special water press, so that you can directly water to the upper part of the garden, can play a better role in irrigation, but after a long time, there may be problems with the water system, which will slowly lead to the disappearance of the sky garden. This is just a speculation, there is no direct evidence to prove that there are many scholars who are also exploring the hanging garden, but now everyone has not found the remains of the hanging garden, the hanging garden is still relatively mysterious.

    The Sky Garden has been described as a mythical place since ancient times, and the 50-meter-high castle is full of flowers and trees, and it looks like it hangs in the sky from afar. The sky garden used the most advanced water supply system at that time, there was a grooved well at the bottom of the bottom, with the help of a special water press, to achieve a continuous flow of irrigation water to the garden, it is said that the principle of use of the water pressure is consistent with the principle of the chain pump.

    This is a magical story that everyone has heard of, after all, it is one of the 7 wonders of the world. The construction of the Hanging Gardens was also controversial, and many felt that it was something that could not be achieved by the Tombs, but it was realized in the ancient kingdom of Babylon.

    Babylon was very fond of his wife, who was sick with homesickness, and she missed her homeland from birth to adulthood, but she could not return to her homeland every day. He assembled the world's leading designers to complete the project, and the effort paid off, and he eventually built this Hanging Garden, which became a wonder of the world, which has so far been unsurpassed.

    If he just thought about it at that time and didn't implement it, then the hanging garden would not have been built next to Jianyin.

    Dear Kiss I'm glad to answer for you, and my answer is as follows: The hanging garden is stacked with stone pillars and slabs layer by layer, up to the sky. Of course, the stones were transported from hundreds of kilometers away.

    The rockery is divided into three layers: upper, middle and lower, and each layer is covered with asphalted wicker mats to prevent water seepage. In order to prevent accidents, two more layers of bricks were laid on the top, and a layer of lead was poured, and after these measures, the fertile soil was cultivated layer by layer, and many exotic flowers and plants were planted, which seemed to grow in the air from a distance, so it was called "hanging garden". In 604 BC, the old king of Babylon died.

    The new king Nebuchadnezzar succeeded to the throne and was married, and the Medean princess Semilas became his queen. But when the queen arrived in Babylon, she saw only a plain and loess, and she did not realize that she was sick with her thoughts. She has a sad face day and night, she doesn't think about tea or food, and the princess, who was originally very beautiful, is now skinny.

    This was a terrible blow to the king of Babylon. The Iranian plateau was the queen's homeland, with rolling hills and dense forests. But in Babylon not even a stone was to be found.

    What to do? He invited many architects to build a large rockery in the capital. After several years of construction, and I don't know how much blood and sweat it took to make the slaves, a super rockery was finally built.

    This super rockery is 120 meters long on each side and 25 meters high, and is stacked with stone pillars and stone slabs layer by layer to reach the sky. Of course, the stones were transported from hundreds of kilometers away. The rockery is divided into three layers: upper, middle and lower, and each layer is covered with asphalted wicker mats to prevent water seepage.

    In order to prevent accidents, two more layers of bricks were laid on the top, and a layer of lead was poured, and after these measures, the fertile soil was cultivated layer by layer, and many exotic flowers and plants were planted, which seemed to grow in the air from a distance, so it was called "hanging garden". Summer in Babylon is very hot, there are no mountains, no forests, and the sun shines unhindered on the earth. It hadn't rained for a long time, and the hot wind had cracked the dry soil, and the crops had begun to turn yellow.

    However, when people looked up at the city of Babylon, they saw layers of flowers and trees in the air, crisp and green, which was very gratifying. This is the great ancient building that is famous all over the world: the "Hanging Gardens" of Babylon.

    Built in the middle of the Euphrates River (south of present-day Baghdad, Iraq), the city of Babylon was a major transportation hub for merchants from all over the world, and was known as the "Gateway to Heaven" as a prominent commercial and cultural center in western Asia at that time. By the end of the fourth century B.C., the wealthy city had gone from prosperity to decay, and by the second century A.D., it was in ruins.
