ZHENYUAN, May 26 (Xinhua) -- With a history of over 2,000 years, the ancient town of Zhenyuan sits at riverside in Guizhou's mountains. The Wuyang River curves through its heart, forming a harmonious picture with traditional wooden houses built right over the water. Stone bridges connect both banks, where you can see boats gliding past reflections of glowing lanterns at night.
