Awesome project, would love to see more of the treasure...

Very interesting restoration project! 👍

It was thought that Zheng He (1371-1435)'s treasure ships were massive, up to 100m long. By comparison, the ships of the Portuguese explorer, Ferdinand Magellan (1480-1521) was a puny 21m long.

Wow, China is going to bring back a Chinese ship that has been sunk for more than 800 years ago during the Song Dynasty. China has been trading and sailing in the South China Sea for thousands of years and undoubtedly there are many treasures on the sea bed waiting to be discovered.

No way, I was in Guangdong and didn't go to this museum 😩. I regret not going.

Fascinating, I had not heard of this project and museum before! Given the thousands of years of Chinese maritime history there must be incredible treasures on innumerable sunken ships, thank you for this video!

[gusbilly]

I went to visit a display at the National Geographic Center on DC with these ships and I was in awe at the size of these ships

[oscarchung]

Very informative. I heard of the museum long time ago, but have never been there. Maoming...Yanjiang...I bet your next stop is Kaiping for the world heritage Diaolou.

Unbelievable what China is capable of. When it is deemed important enough. Everyone else just talks about what they are capable of doing. China just does it. Then talk about it.

The Pentagon looking at the recovery vehicle: "dual-use" ! It could be used to recover an enemy submarine.

[yongzeehow]

800 years civilization?
America is hardly 300 years old .

[KS-zups]

I wish to move to china. America is falling apart.

Some Chinese sunken ships were in Indonesia, and have been looted by Westerners.

There's more sunken ship of china which archeologist are still finding ways to lift from seabed.
