A dive into the past - The trip was a bit expensive, especially considering the cost of living in this part of China. However, the city visited was extremely beautiful, one of the latest places where locals still live in their ancient houses, not yet totally converted into shops or touristic attractions. Not proposed by many providers, this destination retains an amazing atmosphere, quiet and friendly, that should be protected and maintained as it is. Our guide Janet was fantastic. Knowledgeable, kind and professional, she managed excellently our visit, informing us on historical facts and cultural amenities, arranging for a good lunch and proposing nice points for enjoying the beautiful views of this ancient town.
