Ship Sails Historical Mariner's Trail

The replica of a Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) wooden junk set sail from Guangzhou yesterday, part of celebrations to mark the 600th anniversary of the original journey.

"This is a celebration not only of the achievements of Zheng He's voyages across the Indian Ocean but also of China's maritime history and marine economy," said Xu Guanchao, director of the organizing committee.
