A visit to Chenjiagou, Henan, China

I took these photos when I went to Chenjiagou last year to study taiji in its ancestral home. The Chen family (founding family of taiji) has lived in this area for over four hundred years. Visiting, I was struck by how small of a place it was (only about 2000 permanent residents), how people got around, lived their lives, and interacted with the world.
