Helen's Silk Road
Off the beaten track. ie the freeway. Drive on very narrow road for about an hour then load into small vans with wheel spans like a golf buggy up narrow roads hairpin corners to our home stay in lijiashan village in the rain. The village houses are largely under ground with only the facade outside. It is largely uninhibited now. Ww were told 1000 but we only saw evidence of under 50. No young people. Kids n grandparents. Worst toilet & bed so far!!! All along the drive in we could see freeways and a railway being built. So there are constructions in all the towns in anticipation of the boom times ahead. The tourism here is not aimed at foreigners but the millions of Chinese tourists.
