"If you see me, you will cry."
Recently, a chastity archway of more than 200 years was discovered in Daye City, Hubei Province. This archway was more than 280 years ago. The Qing Dynasty Yongzheng Emperor commended the great reign of the Great Reign. Wu Lun, a woman from Shijiawan Village in Yedajipu, became loyal and filial, and was well-educated. She issued an imperial edict to erect a tall and exquisite archway called "Jie Xiaofang" on the hillside of Shijiawan. In 1958, she built a reservoir and filial yard. Sinking to the bottom of the water. In early June 2010, Shijiawan Village Reservoir was reinforced due to the complete and dangerous conditions. After the reservoir water was empty, the "Jiexiaofang" that had sank to the bottom of the water for 52 years was seen again. After that, there was a wonder that Xiaofang was immersed in the water during the flood season and revealed the water again during the dry season.
Due to droughts in various places this year, many cultural relics emerged from the water, attracting many people to stop and watch. But in fact, severe drought and flood have become killers of cultural relics, and some world heritage sites are almost in the midst of severe drought and flood. Disappear...
The reservoir water storage capacity is only 40%. Spain is experiencing a severe drought that has not been encountered in a thousand years. At present, Iberian Peninsula is experiencing a severe drought that has not been encountered in many years. The reservoir water level in some parts of Spain has dropped by 28%, causing a large number of The cultural relics are revealed from the bottom of the water.
Guadaperal Stonehenge
Spain is a country with a very rich historical heritage in Europe. It has been inhabited from Stone Age . The Stonehenge that emerged from the water this time is a product of the Neolithic Age. This ruin, called Guadapelal Stonehenge, is an oval stone in the center with about 150 standing stones, about 1.8 meters high.
It is reported that Guadaperal Stonehenge was discovered in the Extremadura region of Spain in the 1920s, and the site was not studied until the 1960s. However, in 1963, the site was submerged in the reservoir due to a plan to build a reservoir.
Since the establishment of the reservoir, the stone top of the Stonehenge has occasionally exposed the water surface, but the entire stonehenge has been exposed in full. This is the first time in 60 years.

Ancient bridge built in the medieval period in Spain
In fact, it is not just Guadapelal Stonehenge that was exposed to the water, The ruins of the Royal Bathroom of Sabella, the Romanesque church built in the 9th century, and an ancient bridge built in the medieval period are all exposed to the water. These sites were flooded around the 1950s and 1960s when dams were built. Although the temperature in Spain can reach 40 degrees Celsius every year, there is no drought in a year like this year. The capacity of most reservoirs is It is less than 40% of the average water volume.
Although some people have proposed that they hope to "take out" these cultural relics during the drought, most cultural relics protection experts still believe that moving cultural relics in a hasty manner is likely to accelerate the destruction of these cultural relics.
The temperature in London is close to 37 degrees Celsius Longleit Manor has suddenly appeared in the "Ghost Garden"
Spain's neighboring France has recently encountered heavy rain, and even water is accumulated in the subways around Paris. However, the situation in Paris is quite special This summer, even London, which was no more than 30 degrees Celsius in previous summers, has sounded the alarm, with the temperature approaching 37 degrees Celsius. The government requires people to fight drought and not barbecue in the park to avoid fires.
A flooded village in England
Recently, many ruins have emerged from the water, such as the village of Lanuhin, located within the scope of today's Snowdon Mountain National Park . In the 1880s, the local area built a reservoir to supply water to Liverpool, forming Lake Vernui, and flooding the village of Lanuhin. Photos released by " Daily Mail " show that the stone bridges, stone walls and abandoned houses flooded by the lake are now clear at a glance. The last time the ruins of Lanuhin Village "appeared" from the water was in the severe drought in the UK in 1976.
Longlet Manor
More interesting things happen at Longlet Manor.Longleit is a famous castle manor in the UK, and it also has the first safari built outside Africa. Its hedge maze is also well-known all over the world... But the most amazing thing is its garden, one of which disappeared. The "Ghost Garden" that has been around for hundreds of years has become prominent under the drought.
Longleit Manor looks like in the 17th century
Longleit Manor was originally a very typical 17th century manor. It was designed in 1680 and had walls, fences and fountains that were popular at that time. However, in the 18th century, the owner of the manor redesigned it. The garden has become easier to keep animals, so the original decoration is covered with lawns. Before, people could see the appearance of this manor in the 17th century, all through albums and design drawings, but unexpectedly, this year's drought has withered the lawn, so the foundation of the 17th-century garden below is shown.

However, this "ghost garden" may not exist for long. As long as it rains, the turf will come alive and cover it all.
The dual effects of drought and floods are important issues in the protection of world heritage sites
Ancient bridges on the Tiber River in Rome
In Italy, Roman Ancient bridges built by Nero also appeared in the Tiber River ; In Germany, the water level of the Danube River continues to drop; in Czech , the Elbe River also dried up, and the "hungry stone" in the river surfaced again due to drought. "If you see me, you will cry." These words are engraved in German on the stone exposed on the riverbed. It is reported that the "hunger stone" in the Elbe River can be traced back to 1616, and Europeans used it to mark the dates of low water levels and drought, and these years are often accompanied by crop failures and famine.
Although people are surprised that ancient cultural relics and ruins emerge from the water, in fact, climate change is a killer of cultural relics protection.
UNESCO listed drought as an important difficult issue in the protection of world heritage sites very early. In fact, the dangers of climate change include multiple dangers such as rising water levels and drought. Many areas such as Edinburgh, Bangladesh City, Venice , etc. have risen water levels due to warming, which has affected historical sites, but some relics are also dangerous due to drought.
The ancient city of Changchang, Peru, , the capital of the Chimu Empire in the ancient city of South America, because of the influence of El Nino , it is often affected by extreme rain and drought, and the increase in groundwater levels also causes the foundation of the building. It has a huge impact.
Although people are very happy that the silent monuments can surface again, such "lost and regain" is not the way humans hope, because such "lost and regain" actually accelerates the disappearance and destruction of these relics.
