Golmud is an ancient basin. According to scientific proof, in fact, in the distant 3rd century-about 2.5 million years ago, it used to be the sea of Wang Yang, where countless shells and strange marine animals lived, and then it was accompanied by the drift of the Eurasian plate? The uplift of the Himalayas formed a basin surrounded by Kunlun Mountain and its branches Altun Mountain and Qilian Mountain.

As you can see, there are many small shells under the big conch, which are transported from the shell beam.

Building such a conch sculpture in the square is the call and commemoration of the plateau mainlanders for the once ocean!

People say that marine civilization represents openness and confidence. In fact, this sculpture is to convey the pioneering spirit of Golmud people who remember history and never stop!
