Amaranth plant. Its seeds are very high in protein. It is also a good source of iron, magnesium and phosphorus, and a very good source of manganese.

One of the three impressive dams on Lancang river. The whole river flows the hole, like a syphon, and disappears.

At every dam corresponds a tunnel, so it's impossible to see where the river goes.

An hurricane hits south of China, the damages on the southeast coast are numerous, luckily we are far away but the heavy rain forces us to stop. Mr Wang and his friends welcome us into their guesthouse. 3 days full board totally free!
