deqing – wuzhou

80,13km 209 alti meter

most of the sights are not set up for non chinese tourists, so we are left with guessing what the buildings were built for. some people are starring at us and others smile and say the probably only english word they know “hello”. a woman at a restaurant tells us that tourists don´t come to that area usually.
