  • The Crescent Lake, which was once a key spot for Silk Road travelers, stands out for the clarity of its waters, which contrast strikingly with the golden dunes of the Mingsha Mountains.

    Despite the advancement of the desert, this incredible natural wonder has maintained its shape and water level throughout centuries, thanks to the presence of underground springs.

  • Evergreen Point Bridge
    Longest FLOATING bridge in the WORLD located @ WASHINGTON

    Did you know The longest floating bridge in the world is the Evergreen Point Bridge (aka SR 520 Bridge), located in Washington state, United States. This bridge crosses Lake Washington and connects the cities of Seattle and Medina.

    Features of the Evergreen Point Bridge

    1. Total Length: The floating bridge is approximately 2,350 meters (7,710 feet) long, making it the longest floating bridge in the world.
    2. Floating Structure: Unlike traditional bridges that are supported by pillars or columns, this bridge floats on water thanks to 77 reinforced concrete pontoons that provide stability and buoyancy.
    3. Inauguration: The original version of the bridge was inaugurated in 1963, but due to aging and the need for more earthquake and storm-resistant infrastructure, a new bridge was built, inaugurated in 2016.
    4. Cost: The bridge reconstruction cost about $4.560 million, covering infrastructure improvements, seismic resistance and capacity to withstand current traffic.
    5. Capacity: The bridge has 6 lanes (3 in each direction) and features a dedicated HOV lane, cycle lane, and a pedestrian sidewalk.
    6. Importance: It's a crucial route for travelers in the region, especially for those working in the tech areas of Seattle and Redmond, where Microsoft is headquarters.

    Design and Construction

    The floating design is essential due to the depth of Lake Washington, which exceeds 60 meters. Traditional solutions, like pillars, would be technically complicated and expensive. The bridge's pontoons are anchored to the bottom of the lake with wires, allowing for floating and supporting the weight of vehicles.

    Challenges

    • Weather and Earthquakes: The bridge was designed to withstand strong storms and seismic movements, very common in this region.
    • Traffic: Daily, the bridge is used by tens of thousands of vehicles, making it an important road artery for the Seattle metropolitan region. #curiosities

    @


    Is a natural CRESCENT - SHAPED formation surrounded by sand dunes. Also known as Yueyaquan, this oasis has been a key point for travelers on the Silk Road for centuries. Despite being in an arid environment, it is maintained thanks to a combination of groundwater and modern conservation efforts. Its unique beauty and historical significance make it a standout tourist destination.

    A curious fact about Moon Lake is that, despite being surrounded by the arid Gobi Desert, its crescent shape has remained virtually intact for over 2,000 years. This is due to both its groundwater and recent human interventions that have helped preserve it from desertification. #curiosities

  • @Book of MATTHEW 6:9
    "After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name"
    AMEN HALLELUJAH

    Jesus Christ did not want the disciples of his day and those of today to pray amiss so he gave a format for prayer. First of all, you need to acknowledge God as your Father; meaning you need to have a personal relationship with him. Secondly, worship and praise him, and welcome his presence. Thirdly, ask his will to be done in your life as it is in heaven. Fourthly, ask for your pressing need especially your daily provision. Fifthly, forgive all who have wronged you and ask God to also forgive you for your sins. Sixthly, pray for his power of deliverance from evil and temptation. Finally, ascribe praise unto him. When we about to pray we should have all these at the back of our mind, especially worship/praise, and thanksgiving before our request; as we do these in faith and receive in faith every prayer we make will be made in joy.
