The following is a set of pictures I took during a tour of the south of Tangri Mountains. I had an un-forgettable experience seeing and feeling the life of my people in the south. I hope to share the snapshot with visitors of this website.
Enjoy!

The Town of Niya

Ship skin market in front of a clinic was busy.

A small family owned restaurant. The Chinese character meant building would be 'demolish'ed soon and might be replaced by a big modernized bazaar.

Mule cart owner makes decent earnings because people from big cities find it attractive to ride on his unique style vehicle.

In this market, everything is open to the customers. Car can be parked in the middle of the street where children play without too much supervision. Customers stand by waiting their bicycles to be repaired. Weather is hot and dry, but nobody complains about lack of air conditioning.

A view of the Thursday bazaar in a small southern town.

Cotton tender works hard during the bazaar day to make the most of it.

You can tell she is well prepared for the bazaar day.

This motor cart carried 10 people to the bazaar from remote village.

Whoever missed the chance of tasting the sweetest melon would regret for the rest of life.
