Step into the Forgotten Kingdom of Yelang
Long ago, deep in the mountains of what is now Guizhou, there existed a mysterious ancient realm known as the Yelang Kingdom. Though lost to time, it left behind echoes — myths of a proud and independent people whose kings once asked, “Is there a greater kingdom than Yelang?” Today, the spirit of Yelang lives on in a surreal, dreamlike place: Yelang Valley, located in Huaxi District, Guiyang. This open-air art park transforms ancient imagination into stone, wood, and moss. Towering tribal sculptures, spiral towers, and crumbling stone bridges emerge from the forest — as if built by the hands of forgotten gods. Every path leads you deeper into an otherworldly realm, where art meets myth and nature reclaims history. 📷 Image source: @刘聪lclclc and @Sunny在户外from RedNote
