The Taoping Stronghold stands upright against a natural environment of high mountains and rolling rivers in the northwest section of Sichuan Province, China. It is a spectacular feat of human architectural history, created by the Qiang people, who have a history of more than 5,000 years. This stronghold was built in 111BC and is the only well-preserved Qiang village in the world. A fine example of exquisite architectural art and profound ethnic culture, it is a unique textbook for the study of Qiang culture. Experts call it 'the mysterious Oriental castle". |
