Nestled within the Altay Mountains of northern Burqin County (North Xinjiang, China) lies the small and tranquil village of Hemu. The sun rises and illuminates the birch forests nearby and smoke curls up from the chimneys of the village’s quaint log cabins, marking the beginning of a new day. When autumn arrives, the golden leaves cast a glow over the whole village, forming a most surreal landscape. Hemu Village is the most remote and largest of the three residences of Tuva ethnic group. Till date, the locals have kept their simple and ancient lifestyle and many still make a living by animal husbandry. Their residential area is characterized by wooden houses scattered across the village. A paradise for shutterbugs, the superb beautiful and serene natural scenery has won it the name“Paradise for Photography” and “A Private Land of Gods”.
