Discover humanity’s greatest engineering merits and achievements! Our tour is characterised by four UNESCO sites where history meets innovation.
The Great Wall
Constructed from the 7th century BC, this defensive marvel, stretching over 21,000 km, utilized watchtowers with smoke signals for instant military alerts. Its strategic design influenced later fortifications (

Machu Picchu
This is a 15th-century Inca city standing 2, 430 m high in the Andes. This 15th-century Inca city makes a feature of mortar-free stone structures designed to withstand earthquakes. Its stone structures without mortar show advanced earthquake-resistant engineering. Modern studies confirm these techniques reduced seismic damage by allowing stones to shift and settle back seamlessly (

).
Join experts to decode its seismic-resistant secrets!
Petra
Carved into red cliffs around 300 BC, Petra boomed as a trade center due to its advanced water system in drought conditions. This engineering contribution supported a population of 30,000, turning a desert into a prosperous oasis.
Explore its cliff tunnels to see ancient eco-engineering.
