Hidden China

Descrição

This illustrated book explores some of the most remoteregions of China and brings to life a world far removedfrom the great metropolises, a world that has almostbeen forgotten, where the people continue to live theirtraditional lifestyles largely undisturbed. AlessandraMeniconzi’s respectful approach has allowed her to gainaccess to aspects of life that remained largely closed totravelers and other photographers until a few decades ago. She has been invited to join nomads in their tents, experienced the difficult daily life of rice farmers, and witnessed spiritual ceremonies in Buddhist monasteries. Insightful and vivid texts written by travel journalist Bertram Job round off this comprehensive portrayal of traditional China, a world that may not exist in another generation or two.
