China's only "water level zero" sculpture
www.chinanews.cn 2006-05-29 17:36:50
China's sole "water level zero" sculpture was unveiled in Shandong
province's Qingdao City on the 26th. About 7 meters in height and over 10
tons in weight, the main body of this sculpture was constituted by a
sphere with quadrillages on its surface. Under the cubic sustainer, there
is a glass well containing a sculpture sphere on the zero point of water
level. The sphere is 4.5 meters from the ground which means you are on
4.5 meters height if you stand there. The value of this sculpture is just
for travelers to view and not the reference point for geographical
measurement.
