This aerial photo taken on November 21, 2022 shows a view of the salvage operation of the Yangtze No. 2 Ancient Shipwreck in Shanghai, east China. An ancient shipwreck, one of the largest and best-preserved wooden shipwrecks discovered underwater in China to date, was lifted out of waters in Shanghai early Monday. The Yangtze No. 2 Ancient Shipwreck dates back to the reign of Emperor Tongzhi (1862-1875) of the Qing Dynasty. This salvage could offer a useful glimpse of shipbuilding technology during the Qing Dynasty. A milestone in China's underwater archaeology efforts, the sunken ship was detected in 2015 during a key underwater survey. (Photo by Xinhua News Agency/Rex Features/Shutterstock)
