Description Guanghuo Jie(广货街, street of plentiful goods) town in Qinling mountains. Qinling mountains are a huge barrier between the Guanzhong plain and Sichuan basin, which have historically been connected only by narrow mountain paths and gallery roads . The long and difficult journey gave birth to many towns along the routes for travelers to rest and transit goods, Guanghuo Jie is one of them. Now, with the construction of several expressways across the mountains, these towns have lost their busy past and become nodes of road travel.

Can you tell I'm a movie nut? Expecting a kaiju walking out from behind that nearest mountain.
