Dragon Boating

There is a holiday in China called Dragon Boat Festival. Particularly in South China, it is celebrated (how else?) with Dragon Boat Races. It’s exciting and impressive to watch, and even more fun to do… or so I thought.

Cherries and the Qiang

The buildings are unique, unlike anything else in China I’ve seen. The village is several thousand years old, but I believe that it was heavily damaged in the Wenchuan earthquake in 2008, and has been almost entirely reconstructed.
