On the way taking shuttle bus of scenic spot up to the mountain.

The route for Zhuang people carrying things up to the mountain just like this, no highways, no cable car. Only this rugged, steep mountain road.
This is stilts, people put things and raise livestock downstairs, and people live upstairs .
