An alley 150 meters long, from ceiling to the wall, from the pavement to the mailboxes, Mr. Huang creates colorful stripes and pictures. It may not seem very professional at first, but it is alive, vivid and joyful. It has become the hottest photo shooting.
※Reminder: There are residences still inhabiting the village. Please keep your voices down at all times. Please do not take any souvenirs and do not leave behind any trash.
