Trans-Siberian Railway (Russia). Trans-Siberian Railway links the Moscow River, east Moscow and Japan, China and Mongolia. It is really hard to link the west and east Siberia, which makes the 8851-kilometer Trans-Siberian railway so admirable. The designer must ensure that it will function normally at a low temperature of minus 25 degrees Celsius. This railway acrosses eight time zones, 87 towns, and 16 major rivers. 90,000 people took part in construction for 10 years. Taking into account the time, simple tools such as shovels, rakes, wheelbarrows, the completion of the railway is more unbelievable. The railway was completed in 1904. (Source: people.com.cn)
