HuangLongXi Ancient Village

This morning we took the bus one hour from Chengdu to an ancient village called HuangLongXi, very much a tourist town that was crowded with Chinese tourists. Despite that, it was a gorgeous village, just like you see in the old Chinese movies with a river running through the centre and beautiful stone shop fronts along the river. 

It was here that we had the most disgusting meal so far in China – we ordered a chicken dish off the menu and when it finally came, it was unrecognizable! I was sure it was a plate of innards, Thyson even thought one piece resembled a chicken penis – and I think he was right!
