Features: A gem of an ancient village, picturesque landscapes, and the charm of a dreamlike water town are all captured in this book. Trace your roots and savor the nostalgia. This book introduces 24 distinctive rural areas, including the first 12 historically and culturally significant villages jointly released by the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and the State Administration of Cultural Heritage. Each village features an overview, historical origins, scenic spots, key attractions, famous personages, travel diaries, local customs, and traditions. To meet the needs of travelers, it also provides information on transportation, accommodation, golden routes, local cuisine, local specialties, admission fees, and nearby attractions. I dare not say this book is a grand showcase or review of China's rural areas, but at least it offers a rough guide map for those planning to explore rural China. If you're ready, I'd be delighted to accompany you.
