Furthermore, the constant performances are exhausting.

"When you calculate it, we walk about 300 days a year. We have been doing this for 16 years, nearly 20,000 shows," Li said.

When asked why he has been doing this for so long, Li's answer is simple: "I think the scenery here is beautiful, the air is good and the people are kind."

Over the years, he has established deep friendships with others in the scenic area. They chat, relax and help each other in their spare time. The care and warmth between them have made this place his "second home".
