Cuandixia mountain village - China
100 km away from Beijing there is a picturesque mountain village called Cuandixia Village. This village is located at the valley of Jingxi mountain area, and it is known for its well preserved 500 Ming and Qing dynasty-style courtyard houses owned by 70 families, ancient but unsophisticated, just like another “Shangri-la”.
These houses on the hillside have remained largely unchanged for centuries, surrounded by mountains and luxuriant forests. Steep stairs and lanes paved with rocks are simple and unadorned.
The village was rated as a village of great tourist value and has been placed under national level cultural relics protection. It is also a great place to take photos.

Cuandixia: an ancient mountain village in China
Cuandixia is an old village in the mountains about 90k outside of Beijing. Farmers in the 1400s used to transport food to Beijing to feed the imperial family at the Forbidden City. Today, its residents have transformed it into a living history museum. It's pretty cool -- I've been there twice. It makes an excellent day trip for those who want to get away from Beijing's hustle and bustle for a few hours. You can read more about Cuandixia in my Amazon ebook;
