Qīngyán

TIME : 2016/2/17 12:00:10

With its winding, stone-flagged streets and restored city walls, Qīngyán makes a pleasant diversion from modern Guìyáng. A former Ming-era military outpost dating back to 1378, Qīngyán was once a traffic hub between the southwest provinces, leaving the village with Taoist temples and Buddhist monasteries rubbing up against Christian churches and menacing watchtowers.
