while wiki-ing about various wars India has fought with our strange neighbours, i stumbled upon this:
http://bbs.keyhole.com/ubb/showthreaded.php/Cat/0/Number/859782/page/0/vc/1
it tells about a scale model of aksai chin (20% part of jammu-kashmir), which came to light in 2005. the model is situated in what seems to be a military camp, deep inside china's borders. at a scale of 1:500, it mesures ~700x900 meters (whoa!!!). China captured and claimed Aksai Chin after defeating India in the 1962 war. Bloody Chinese.:mad:

PS: This news is old (2005). But i had not heard about it. And just wanted to share it with others.
