The Cliff Hangs 100 Coffins In Sichuan

Go to Sichuan, visit Cung Hien land to admire the wonders on the cliff with more than 100 hanging coffins dating back to 3,000 years. The barren land of Cung Hien in Sichuan province, China, has a cemetery formed on the face of the steep cliffs with more than 100 myths floating in the air. Huyen (hanging coffin) is an ancient burial custom of ethnic minorities, originating from the Bo tribe that disappeared about 500 years ago, and many myths are scattered throughout the cliffs. Bo people are ethnic minorities living in the border between Sichuan and Yunnan provinces. They believe that the dead from above will be closer to the protection of the gods, on the other hand, not be destroyed by wild beasts or enemies

. So coffins are hung high on steep cliffs. In this land, the oldest "tombs" date to 3,000 years, and the latest myths are 5 centuries ago, so but no coffin was rotten or broken. The old coffins are made from very hard old tree trunks, 2-3 m long, hollowed inside After the funeral ceremony, the dead and the coffin will be taken to an elevated cliff.



Until now, the tallest coffin was found hanging at an altitude of 103 m and the lowest at 10 m, the coffin at a height of several tens of meters and only needed to hold 2-3 wooden bars. According to the researchers of the Nghi Tan Museum, the ancient rituals have three common types of myths. One is placed crisscrossing the cliff with two or three wooden slats held underneath, the other placed in small caves high above and the other on cliffs protruding from the mountain. Particularly this cliff in Sichuan is especially famous for its more than 100 myths kept in wooden bars all over the cliff, so far, there is no valid explanation for how the ancients were able to bring the sages. Such heavy assets to a height of several tens of meters at a steep cliff. Many studies have made three most reasonable guesses about how to move the coffin up.

The third way is to use rocks or a long distance (the tall tower that moves on wheels) to bring the coffin up, but the official Bo method will forever be in mystery with the sudden disappearance of this tribe. The mysterious tales and creepy images of the coffins that suddenly appear when they raise their eyes are what makes anyone who has once been to Sichuan must try to come to this place to discover. : IVIVU.com Travel Guide - According to Vnexpress.
