Step right up! Get your daily news here. This is a typical street scene from rural China (here: Guilin). Every morning, copies of the state-controlled newspapers are tacked up to boards around the cities. They draw a crowd. We never got a satisfactory answer as to why folks didn’t just buy the paper, rather than queuing up to read. I guess they like the company.

A woman walking her water buffalo past some rice fields in rural China. The colors were breathtaking. You can just make out the karsts rising in the background. We took this near Guilin, China.
