The Great Wall Of China is a series of fortifications made of stone, brick,

tamped earth, wood, and other materials, generally

built along an east-to-west line across the historical northern

borders.

Porcelain Did you know the Chinese

invented porcelain? It seems that porcelain was not a sudden invention, but some people claim

that Tao-Yue in the 1600’s, AD was the legendary

inventor of porcelain. The inventor put different

types of clay together to create the first white

porcelain, which he sold as artificial Jade in the

capital Chang-an. Porcelain was much finer than other ceramics, so

thin as to be translucent.

weapons The Chinese Martial Arts has the widest array of weapons

of any ancient culture.

Kung Fu Weapons are renowned for their diversity

and uniqueness. In fact, Kung Fu Weapons are so diverse that we've had to divide them into

traditional and wushu competition categories. We've

separated the swords into double-edged straight swords (jian or gim) and single-edged curved broadswords (dao or

do). All the long pole arms that require two hands are in Long Weapons and all the others,

the flexible weapons and unique weapons, are in Exotic Weapons. Additionally, we've separated the weapons into

the different famous forges for your convenience, Shaolin Temple, Dragon Well and

Hanwei

ArmorIn the ancient times China

was on the forefront of technological

advancements. Silk, gunpowder, and porcelain

are just a few of their coveted ancient

inventions. A number of Chinese armors, mostly

isolated from the advancements of the

middle east and Europe, were developed. The

Chinese was continuously being harassed by outside influences, the Huns, the

Mongolians and the Manchus to name a few.
