Cuiping village in Yangshuo County, China

Yangshuo County boasts a generous helping of the spiky karst hills and meandering rivers that southern China’s Guangxi region is renowned for. There are large cities and towns in Yangshuo, but also many small, extremely picturesque villages nestled along waterways and tucked below craggy peaks. We’re gazing down here on the village of Cuiping, not far from Yangshuo Town and a magnet for visitors equipped with lots of extra smartphone photo storage. They’re going to need it for all the images they’ll take of this fantastical landscape. And while views from a river raft will doubtless be charming, the real wows come from trekking up the hillsides and getting a birds-eye view of the scene.

I stumbled on this photo and description on the internet.
