Over a millennium ago, the timeless prose The Peach Blossom Spring painted the dream of an idyllic paradise. Today, that ancient vision finds new life as Guangdong province weaves it into the fabric of its vast countryside. With the "Hundred, Thousand, and Ten Thousand Project" reaching a critical three-year milestone, a vibrant panorama unfolds across counties, towns, and villages—a tapestry of a more beautiful and prosperous Guangdong.

Launching today, Guangzhou Daily unveils the multimedia series“Guangdong Grows Greater," capturing the poetry and vitality within this grand initiative. Our first installment, “Land of Poetry: Scenes from Lingnan's Villages,”spotlights 30 characteristic Guangdong villages, including Guangzhou's Shatian Village.

Join us on this journey through the new landscape of rural Guangdong.
