"No. 1 Village in the World" Actually, the red text in Chinese is "the Capitol of the United States of America". Tian'anmen The red text is "Roman Church". "The Great Wall" This is so-called "No. 1 Village in the World", Huaxi Village , Jiangsu Province, which is a really reach village in farming. The urbanscape and architecture are collages of Chinese and Western styles and a typical example of simulacra. There are Tian'anmen Square (which I have shown before, here ), the Great Wall, Capitol Hill, Chinese Towers, etc. This is the way how farmers show the richness. [via jsdj ]
