English: Place: Liping, Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture, Guizhou Province
Liping (黎平) is a small city in Guizhou with around 100,000 people in city proper and is surrounded by the average concrete buildings, but the historical city centre gives it soul. The historical centre basically consists of one street (Qiao street), with stone stairs on each end giving an incredible view over the centre, but there are many interesting side alleys and courtyards to visit. Houses in Qiao street and alleys were built during the Ming and Qing dynasties, but many houses played a role in the foundation of Communist China. During the famous Long March Mao Zedong visited the city in 1934, where he held a conference.
