Ping an (Rice terraces)

the ping an rice terraces are like a little bubble of extreme tourism in an otherwise tourist free area, and by area I mean like the south of china, Or at least what ive seen of it.its still great though, the terraces themselves were huge and stetched for miles. It was a shame you couldnt see much of it due to being in a cloud about 50% of the time and having all the landscape covered in a slight mist all of the time. There were huge mountains on the other side of the valley that you could just about view on occasions but most of the time its like they werent there.
The village is a maze of small stone paths between storage houses and hotels and resteraunts. I walked the streets a good number of times and never took the same rout twice to get to the same locations.As usual even though the village is one of the nicest i have ever been in the enviroment is better the further you get fron it. On my walk away from ping an through the rice terraces i saw an insect that was the best insectI think i have ever seen. Most insects are strange and i dont have a clue what they are but this one i recognised instantly.
took some photos of the terraces but none of them were very good.
