One of my favourite places in China with beathtaking views and out of the way places to visit if you know the locals.
The drive to this small village we travelled to a few weeks ago can be quite dangerous as it is in the mountains, lots of rock falls and bad roads.
This is the village we reached, a lot of the history and architecture has been preserved and restored to its original beauty.
The people lead a simple life and I was struck by the peacefulness of the place.
The Cafe- only modern concession that didn't serve coffee.
Traditional arts such as calligraphy are still taught to the young people, it's a dieing art form.
A small lane in the village.
Haven't been in one of these in years, and the horse stunk.
I love these curtains. They do a lot of weaving, dyeing and embroidery in the village as their livelihood, which you can see in the materials and fabrics adorned everywhere.
House interior.
Are this koi or carp anyone?
