Chongqing with Qing and her family (3)




The day before Mid-Autumn Festival, school had been canceled due to extreme heat.  We went hiking in Wansheng Heishan Scenic Valley, one of "China's most beautiful valleys," which it was.   And, a great place to be on a hot day!!!  (It reminded us of Dole Valley!)


Chris and Qing hike down into the valley, while Paula takes a scenic ride over the forest in a cable car.  The three of us meet up at a lower point along the WONDERFUL trail!


Black Mountain Forest Canyon
Pretty  Qing!
China has 56 ethnic minority groups.  One group of local people greets visitors in the park.
Chris ties up our "prayer bell," after we ceremoniously consider the health and safety of all our family and friends.
