Waterfall at the Sidonggou Scenic Area in Chishui city, Southwest China's Guizhou province, on Aug 10, 2016. (Photo/chinadaily.com.cn)

Just 15 km from Chishui downtown is the Sidonggou Scenic Area, which boasts a succession of cataracts. The four large ones offer different ways of splashing, some passionate, some haunting. It looks like a fantasyland. If you love the land, you'll also love the people who inhabit it. There are several old towns in Chishui. On the way to the Sidonggou waterfalls you can find Datong, a narrow street with pebble stones and old women sitting by their doors, reading old books or playing mahjong. The only telltale sign of modernity is the TV behind every open door, which is always on.
