鄭和下西洋(Zheng He's Voyages)

STORY (Zheng He's Voyages)

610 years ago, on July 11, 1405, “Zheng He” started his seven voyages by the order of “Ming Chengzu” the Emperor.

Period in 28 years, he visited more than 30 countries and regions along the Western Pacific and Indian Ocean coasts. History remark as “Zheng He” Western Sailing.

His sailing time was seven to eighty years earlier than Diaz discovered the Cape of Good Hope and Columbus discovered the New World. Its voyage and fleet size are rare in history, not only an event of the Ming Dynasty, but also a pioneering activity in the history of world navigation.

ADVENTURE (Zheng He's Voyages)

He is well-versed in navigating satellites and oceans, and familiar with knowledge and skills of various types of east-western book, astronomy and geography, marine science, ship driving and repair.

During the 28-year voyage to the Western Ocean, Zheng He led a huge fleet, sailed through Southeast Asia, the Indian Ocean, and voyaged to Asia and Africa, as far as the Red Sea and the east coast of Africa, with nautical footprints in more than 30 countries and regions in Asia and Africa. area.

GREAT ACHIEVEMENTS (Zheng He's Voyages)

As many as 200 ships and more than 27,000 people traveled on Zheng He's journey to the west. Without sophisticated planning and management, advanced shipbuilding techniques and advanced navigation technology, it is impossible to accomplish the feat of ocean navigation. Zheng He's successful seven trips to the Western Ocean fully proved his leadership and organizational genius in the nautical fleet.

WORLD PIONEER (Zheng He's Voyages)• This is the largest voyage fleet in the history of mankind. "The body is majestic and incomparable. The sails are anchored at the rudder. As for its large scale, large number of people, and wide range, it is not only the first time in the history of Chinese navigation, but also no precedent in the history of world navigation.

Zheng He's voyages to the west developed diplomatic relations. The relationship was harmonious, which promoted economic and cultural between the Central Plains and the surrounding ethnic groups exchanges among the various ethnic groups.
