It is a dream place for many tourists who want to see the karst landscape and touch the countryside life. Hilltops pop up from nowhere like trees in the forest and they are shaped like buns, camels, fishes, saw-teeth, horses, etc.

    Chinese New Year 2008 is the year of Rat, the people clean their house, shopping and make rice cakes, wash their quilts and bed covers. when you visit this area, you will see locals how to spend their new year, children wear their new clothes, decorate with poems on red paper and New Year pictures, and give children “lucky money” in red envelopes. The New Year Eve, the family members sit down together for reunion meal, after meal, the whole family sits around chatting, watching TV, playing cards . At midnight, people set off fireworks, crackers. You can see lion dances, dragon dances and other performances.
