Features: On October 2, 2005, the replica of the ancient Swedish sailing ship G?teborg set sail from G?teborg Port, heading towards the distant China. It was a romantic journey, as a two-century-old ancient ship was faithfully reconstructed. She would follow the same route as back then, sailing towards the land where the sun rises. It was an adventure, with her three masts fully set with sails, and her wooden streamlined hull ready to face the at sea. It was a journey of friendship, as she would visit five countries across five continents before revisiting her old friend—China. Deng Wu and Shen Guanghua, two special correspondents from China Central Television's "Exploration and Discovery" program, followed this voyage throughout. They recorded this romantic, thrilling, and interesting dream journey with vivid words and stunning photography.
