Amazing detail in this photo when you expand it to full size:
Xijiang, a Hmong-majority township in Guizhou, China
Such densely packed roofing tiles on some of those roofs!
Houses, terraced slopes, mountains, trees, river, bridges, people with umbrellas...

I found these photos of it with a performance in progress:

Hah, people in the audience in those photos have open umbrellas too even though there they appear to be for the sun instead of rain!
OH and a video!

I like the singing style at the end, though it seems to be pre-recorded and playing over loudspeakers.
I love that one can do a search on something minor like that which seems remote and unlikely to produce results, and then even find a video of it.
This looks like the same town. (warning: disturbing scene 4 minutes in, butchered pigs)

Having read more about the area now, it is quite a touristy place.
