A model holding a pot of green tea poses on ship "Gotheborg" at Waitan (the Bund) in China's largest commercial center Shanghai, Sept. 3, 2006. A total of 100 pots of green tea from east China's Anhui Province were presented the replica of the 18th century Swedish merchant ship "Gotheborg" on Sunday. A cargo including tea was recovered during the excavation from 1986 to 1992 from the legendary "Gotheborg", which smashed into rocks on its way from China to Sweden in 1745. The replica of "Gotheborg" arrived in Shanghai Tuesday after a 10-day voyage from Guangzhou, capital of south China's Guangdong Province.
