Project 816 is the most stunning tourist destination I have ever seen.

Exploring Project 816: A national secret hidden deep in the mountains 🔍 Uncover the history and enter the mysterious underground nuclear world Did you know that in the deep mountains of Fuling, Chongqing, there is a place hidden that was once kept secret by 60,000 people - Project 816. This place that disappeared from the map is China's second nuclear material industrial base, code-named "816". It was built in 1966 and after 18 years of arduous construction, it was not until 2002 that it was declassified and unveiled to the world. 🚧 60,000 people, 18 years, creating a national miracle 60,000 engineers, nuclear industry experts and support personnel from all over the country gathered on this land surrounded by the Wujiang River and Wuling Mountains. They dug mountains and chiseled rocks, using simple tools and firm beliefs to carve out the world's largest artificial cave in the mountains. There are as many as 18 caverns, and more than 130 roads, guide tunnels, branch tunnels, tunnels and shafts. The scale of the project is breathtaking. 🛡️ Indestructible underground Great Wall that can withstand nuclear explosions Project 816 is not only large-scale, but also well-designed. The total area exceeds 100,000 square meters, and the vertical depth reaches more than 30 meters to the bottom of the Wujiang River. This underground palace-like project can withstand an 8.0 magnitude earthquake and even a direct attack from a hydrogen bomb, and is a true national security barrier. Walking inside the cave, you will be shocked by the solid stone walls, intricate structures and sophisticated equipment. In that special era, confidentiality was life. All personnel involved in the construction of Project 816 have undergone strict political review and must abide by confidentiality discipline. 📚 Inheriting the spirit, a patriotism education base in the new era Today, Project 816 has become a patriotism education base. It is not only an important achievement of the country's Third Front construction, but also a symbol of the selfless dedication and hard work of the older generation of builders. Whenever people step into this huge underground world, they will be moved by the slogans carved on the walls, the well-preserved equipment and the touching stories. 📸 Check-in holy place, the exploration journey should not be missed If you come to Chongqing Fuling, you must not miss this mysterious underground nuclear project. Put on a thick coat, follow the guide's steps, go deep into the cave, and feel the weight of history and the hardships of construction. Here, you can see cooling water pipes with a diameter of 3.5 meters and a length of 3,500 meters, and get close to the equipment that once contributed silently to national security. 💖 Salute to the builders and history Finally, let us pay the highest tribute to the builders who have devoted their youth and sweat to the construction of the 816 project. It is their selfless dedication and hard work that have built this immortal underground Great Wall. At the same time, let us remember that history and cherish the hard-earned peace and tranquility.
