Taking a Picture - Hongcun - Anhui - China
While passing by Tunxi in order to climb the Huangshan mountain, it was a great opportunity to have a look on Hongcun and Tunxi, the two "Unesco World Heritage" classed traditional villages. These places are perfect example of the typical architecture of the Anhui Province.
Let's say that wandering the these little street is like traveling in ages and - for us - culture. Everything is picturesque and remind us of some clichés we took with us in China. Chinese people themselves seem to be fond of this perfect exemple of their past and tradition. Probably because - like everywhere else in the world - modernity create nostalgy.
These place is so iconic that many movies are filmed there such as "Wo hu cang long" ("Tigre et Dragon" in french and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" in english), by Ang Lee (2000).
