30th Anniversary Celebrations
Watching the 30th Anniversary celebrations marking the formation of Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture which is rapidly changing as part of the Western Development plan. This entire town was showcased by officials. The performers were predominantly locals and everyone was provided with lunch that day. The area specialises in pears, which visitors bought by the box load. The town sits in a fertile plain surrounded by mountains. The village itself stretches along the valley and consists of fairly new built houses which have recently been renovated in a government subsidised scheme to make them look more 'traditional'.
