Overview
Rural farming villages in China are faced with a multitude of problems including poverty, environmental destruction and depopulation caused by villagers migrating to cities. A local artist is tackling these issues at a grass roots level through projects which aim at restoring villages based on traditional construction designs and eco-friendly values. Through such efforts, his NGO hopes to help attract more tourists to rural parts and bring locals back. This episode of Asia Insight follows his group's work to revitalize villages all over China.
