Min River

岷江

Recommendation by Lemi

Sometimes, the pursuit of what seems impossible can lead us to find out that the world still yields many mysteries to uncover. In the case of the Min River in the Sichuan province of China, what began as a legend led to a treasure trove embedded into the muddy river banks. It all started with silver bullions. Then came the precious gold, silverware, and bronze in surprisingly good condition. Many believe there may be more, just waiting under the ancient river trail.
