We're now in a very special farm in Liaoning province called "Tanbo Art Kingdom" where they make drawings in rice fields out of different varieties of rice.

Extremely cute place! https://t.co/1dVUw4bcfptwitter.com/i/web/status/1…

Some of the drawings are extraordinarily impressive! They even have a QR code, which you can apparently scan (I haven't tried it though) 😄


If you wonder how we can take such bird view pictures, we're on a platform

They also sell homemade rice ice cream, which is actually excellent!

This is so cool: they also have a "next generation sandpit" with actual diggers. How I would have loved that as a kid!

Interestingly this place is owned by someone from the Xibo ethnic minority (also called Sibe ⬇️), one of the smaller minorities out of China's 56.

It was written at the entrance that the park is free for all Xibo people!

This place has so many activities: now we're pumping water from the well 😊

And you can go fruit picking, all organic! We picked 3kg of peaches for ourselves 😊 https://t.co/fHtmrVCGAUtwitter.com/i/web/status/1…

A close up of the different rice varieties they use for the "drawings"

Four more "drawings", so well done it's almost unbelievable!


And as a beautiful end to this visit they offered us free rice, porridge and corn (all came with the price of the ticket!)
