Yangjiabu is known as the origin place for the chinese kites and wood printing. Yang's family has been making these traditional artwork for hundred of years. The unique village structure has drawn more than one million visitors every year.

杨家埠是举世闻名的潍坊风筝都和年画的发源地。杨家百年以来都居住在这个小村里以制作售卖风筝为业。杨家埠文化古村建成以后,每年都能吸引一百万的观光人数。

This tower is the first building that you would see from the front gate. Nice looking but I believe it is newly build for the sake of storing the ancient kites and acts for exhibition purpose as well.

这座高塔是进入小村以后首先遇见的建筑物。内里现代化的建筑风格表明了它并不是个古建筑,主要用以收藏风筝比赛用的参赛作品。里面有个"世界之最"的最长风筝,形态为龙头蜈蚣身,长达 350 米。当年的风筝比赛冠军,扬名天下。

Some of the wall arts are well-maintained and refurbished due to a TV series was flimed exactly inside this ancient town.

墙上的艺术雕刻维护翻新得很好。可能得益自几年前在此取景的本地电视剧。

Part of the Yangjiabu town is full of hawker stalls that selling souveniors. But in the chilling weather of -5℃ we can hardly see any visitors, as a result most of the stall owners stayed in the house as well. The town presents a cold, desserted feeling.

村里的某条街列满了售卖纪念品的档口,但是零下五度的气温驱走了游客,也让档口主人们都窝在身后的房子里取暖。到处一片萧条荒凉之气。

Sun already starts to set at 5pm. Having a shorter daytime, I rarely see the sun locate right in the middle of the sky like what we normaly see in the South East Asia. Starting from 2pm to 5pm the sunlight stays in the sunset mode. Warmer lighting, longer shadow, perfect for photography, but confusing for new-comer like me in time estimation.

在潍坊的冬天白天的时间比较短,来到这里以后就从来没见过日正当空的正午太阳。好吧,一部分原因是我们出门的时候多数也不早。午间两点到五点的太阳都是处在夕阳状态,斜斜的光线,黄暖的色温,长长的影子,把摄影师们所谓的取景黄金时段拉长了。坏处就是对初来报道的我来说,看天色估计时间似乎没有一次是真正确的。

地点: 山东省潍坊市寒亭区杨家埠
