But travelers who explore Qingyan ancient town in Guizhou province's capital Guiyang will discover that this small, centuries-old settlement offers many digitally generated activities that appeal to vast worlds beyond its borders and our planet — and much more.

Yet the six-century-old cobblestone settlement still sustains traditions from previous eras.

Ethnic Miao artisans hammer ornate silver teapots, bracelets and bowls into shape on stumps along the street sides.

Eateries serve local specialties, such as ethnic Miao-style tofu balls, stewed pig trotters, rice jelly and the namesake Qingyan tofu, washed down with red bayberry juice.
