It's a fictional tale about a Japanese businessman who is sent to visit an extremely remote Chinese village in the mountains... If you have access to it, I recommend it.

Though it was why I wanted to visit Lijiang a decade ago and I loved the town. My then gf and I didn't want to leave after our week there. Perhaps now even far more touristy and ruined, but still the mountains nearby make up for that.

How many isolated villages like that are there still in China? Probably quite a few. I wish I had the time to go explore. Beautiful place.

Saw a BBC program recently that showed another school in the south of China (in Sichuan province I think) that was in a cave on a mountain range. The school itself had no roof since the roof of the cave was enough to protect everything from the rain. It's amazing to me how people are able to make the best out of what they have.
