Zhiziluo: an hour in a county town left in the 1970s

Pihe, Fugong county

The seat of the former Bijiang county until 1986, when the county was abolished over fears that the town sat on a huge landslide. The slide never came, and old government buildings, a bank and a post office still stand along quiet streets. One hour is enough.

What locals sayWalking through it feels like stepping into an old film set, except people really lived here.
