The Fisherman 4

Zhenyuan is an ancient Han garrison town on the Wuyang River in N-E Guizhou Province. It sits in a canyon, spans the river and covers only 3 square Km. Its setting is beautiful, as the whole town is in tiers, overlooking the intense green-blue waters of the Wuyang River. It is linked by two or three modern bridges, an ancient Qing Dynasty stone bridge, and a tiny ferry-boat. Zhenyuan's climate is sub-tropical climate.

The population is substantially made up of Miao and Dong (ethnic minority) people; to me their customs and dress are indistinguishable, but their features are rather different (although they all look the same to the Han!). As ethic minorities, they are spared the "one family, one child" law, so the town. and the river, teem with happy children. Westerners are almost unknown in Zhenyuan, so many children followed us around and played games with us. Both Miao and Dong are very fond of dancing and music - which resembles western pop music rather than traditional Han music.

The town has many tourist attractions, but the major one in the town itself is the Black Dragon (Qinlong) Cave. This is neither black nor a cave, but is a Ming and Qing complex of Taoist (Daoist) and Buddhist temples clinging to the cliff-face looking across the river to the town centre. There are many walks and river trips available in the surrounding countryside, which claims 160 "scenic spots"! The major cultural event in the town centre is the Dragon Boat races on May 25th, but these races are rehearsed and re-enacted in costume on virtually every weekend. Zhenyuan is an excellent place to experience the day-to-day life of southern China at close quarters with its friendly people.

While having lunch in SF today I saw there was a "music" store across from where I was parked. I walk in and it is really the size of a small closet. As I am looking at the old guitars, reel to reels, radios and misc music equipment I see a sign that says "employees only". I ask what is back there. "The guy says - stairs. You can head down."

I walk in and the doors of heaven opened and I found what looks to be hundreds of thousands of Records! In crates, stashed in shelfs and on the stairway. Thousands upon thousands of lost gems.

All I had was my phone for these pics - yet the storage room was so full I couldn't move from isle to isle to take a proper pic.

Music is life and life is good!
Cheers.
