Guide
Guide County occupies a Yellow River valley in Hainan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, where irrigated farms, orchards, Danxia mountains and upland pastoral areas meet within short distances. Tibetan, Han, Hui and other residents share the county, while old-town buildings, village religious sites, markets and new visitor facilities serve different communities. Ashigong explains geological change but cannot substitute for Guide's water management, farming seasons, religious traditions or contemporary town life.
