湘潭 is a medium sized city surrounded by farmland and mostly famous for agriculture and tourism (visiting the ancestral home of Mao). A significant portion of the residents here are local farmers that moved into the city within the past 20 years, and 30% of the 'city' residents are still farmers.



This shows the vast changes that are happening in rural China. This is a talking point that some certain people love to say: "Chinese cities are great but whatabout whatabout whatabout the rural areas!!111!!"

Well this is it.
