@Sinopakfriend Sorry, my posts in this thread seldom has anything to do with non-Western/Central China.
I think they are too developed to mention here:frown: Envy!




The last video about Hangzhou will be shared during G20 Summit this September in Hangzhou. I have been to Hangzhou for at least 20 times. One of my favourite mega-cities in China.

A small village of Liupanshui City and Qingshui Bridge
Guizhou Province, Southwest China


A drone & bridge fan tried to make a drone video about Qingshui Bridge in rural Guizhou Province.
He accidentally stepped into a small village on top of a mountain. No tourists have ever entered that village before.
This village may not seem wealthy or fancy like other tourist villages, but he described it as the most beautiful village he has ever visited, as it is tourism-free and local villagers are the most hospitable. They offered him the best food they could offer! The surrounding rice terrace and deep valley are simply gorgeous.

Qingshui bridge located in Shuicheng county of Liupanshui City, western Guizhou, is a part of Shuihuang highway (from Shuicheng to Huangguoshu). With a span of 150m span and a height of 147m, if it is not located in China, the bridge will join Top 50 highest bridges and Top 10 highest archs in the(outside China) world. This bridge crosses a very narrow gorge surrounded by limestone mountains. Inside the gorge, we can see from this video there are 2 creeks coming from different directions.

These villagers are sitting on a gold mine. Their houses are located in prime location (beside rolling hills). These type of houses in anywhere around the world will fetch huge $$$$.

In HK, a house by the mountain is $30million USD easily. In Canada, in my area it's in the $5+ million CAD range.

:D

:D

Let us keep these jewels for ourselves, please. You are right they are prcieless.
 
@Jlaw @Sinopakfriend That's why the world outside is so colourful, but to them, their own home is the most heavenly.
