    The energy from the Wenchuan earthquake was as huge as the Tangshan earthquake in 1976, which killed 240,000 people.

    The strength of the earthquake is big and it has released a huge amount of energy so that many parts of the country felt the quake. And Beijing did not experience a separate earthquake.

    The quake we felt in Beijing today was not a separate earthquake. It was just the aftershocks from the Wenchuan earthquake in the afternoon. buy jordan shoes

    The research of seismologist shows China and its neighbors are currently in a relatively-active period for earthquakes.

    For example, a 7.3 magnitude earthquake occurred in Japan recently. On the Chinese mainland, a 6.9 magnitude quake took place in Tibet in January, while March saw a 7.3 magnitude quake in Yutian in Xinjiang and now we have a 7.8 magnitude quake in Wenchuan. So at the moment there is a trend of earthquakes in China's mainland and its neighboring countries.
