Geological Grandeur

 

The cave where the Ming Minister of War Li Chunye studied as a young man. Through the window on the wall, one can view the lush countryside at the foot of the mountain.

Ancient corridor bridges are common in town. Holding out the wind and rain, they offer a haven for the locals to pause during rough weather. Made of gray wooden planks and gray tiles dating back hundreds of years, the bridges bore silent witness to the passage of time and the changes which took place here. Local villagers may also worship gods on the bridges, praying for safe trips, and during rainy days the threshing machines may be stored here.
