Painting made with colorful crops in Yunnan

A gigantic colorful image — a painting of sorts —was created in a paddy in Yunnan province by mingling crops of different colors.

The artwork, located in Maidichun village in Kunming's Yiliang county, features the ancient Chinese love story of Zhinv, the weaving maid and Niulang, the cowherd, as well as a local peacock.

The village created its first plant-based painting last year, which helped boost tourism.
