In human history, there were lots of explorers who advanced the development of the world. They discovered new continents or new planets so that they contributed a lot to humans. In China, of course there were also many explores and now I will tell a legend about the most prominent explorer.
Zheng He was born in Ming Dynasty who was the most outstanding navigator in Chinese history. To build the friendly relationships with other countries and develop the trade between China and other countries, Zheng He had led many ships to other continents and oceans for seven times. The farthest continent and ocean Zheng He had reached were Africa and Atlantic Ocean.
Through these navigations, China built favourable relations with many countries such as Sumatra Vietnam and Cambodia. In addition, the trade among these countries became more and more frequent. Every navigation Zheng He would take lots of Chinese product like tea, chinaware and silk at the same time he also bring in many special local product such as coral, pearl and ivory.
Zheng He’s navigations reflected at that time Chinese had owned advanced science and technology. They used compass and map to ensure the direction and ships’ position. Moreover, the ships were classified in different kinds. Some of them took food, some of them used for resting and sleeping and some of them were warships.
Zheng He’ navigations had really significant meaning. On the one hand, it represented the most advanced exploration time in Chinese history. On the other hand, it exhibited China’ generosity and kindheartedness as a strong country.

Except Zheng He's missions were anything but friendly and for diplomatic purposes. For analysis of the historical events read the book "The 1421 Heresy," in which the significance of the mysteries is fully detailed.
