Zhang Jia Jie, China 張家界 (Mar/Apr 2002)
chin:
At the time of the visit, we can still see many canola fields blooming. We saw this one on the way to Huang Long (黃龍).
chin:
On the way to Wang Lung, we found the direct route was blocked off because a section of the road collapsed the previous day.
Like drivers in any developing country, our driver decided to talk his way through the road block and press on. We managed to squeeze through this collapsed section like the van pictured here.
chin:
At the end of the road section that was partially collapsed, we found a road block blocking traffic enter from the other side.
Workers were working on erecting and painting the road block (partially visible on the right) while villagers look on. They seem to have all the time in the work to watch the pain drying.
While our driver talk to the workers to let us out, I took this picture from the front passenger seat, through the driver side window.
When I show this picture to my father, his comment was that these people are not too poor, because they live in brick houses, instead of mud houses. Indeed Hunan used to be one of the poorest area in China. Now with tourism money, at least this part of Hunan is prospering.
chin:
At the first sight of this, my thought was of Elf castle and such.
chin:
Another view from the Wang Lung sight seeing area. Wang Lung seems to be bigger than Tien Tsz Shan.
