Kaiping Day One












Today we went a tour provided by Lotus Tours to a village called Kai ping. It was about a 2 1/2 hour drive from Guangzhou. We toured several homes that were built in the 1920's. The homes were built as watch towers to protect the villages from bandits. We were able to have lunch at a small restaurant in the village and taste some of the local dishes. It was very delicious. Afterward we toured a classic chinese garden that was beautiful.

We left at 9:00 AM and retured at 7:30 it was an exhausting trip, but well worth it.
