After years of research – in China and in different European museums and bibleotheks – the author could make a detailed description of this special and traditional type of a HANGZHOU-TRADER (a traditional Chinese junk). Plans and drawings explain the construction and the technique of those ships, which is extraordinary for people of the Western civilisation, comprehensively. 8 plans enable even modeling beginners to build an authentic rebuild of the original.
