I went to the epicenter of one of China's most devastating catastrophe sites: Beichuan. In 2008, a 7.9 magnitude earthquake struck the Sichuan province, resulting in the death of more than 90,000 people. Today, it's the world's largest preserved catastrophe site. Come with me, when I visit the leftovers of Beichuan town.
