Guizhou Bridges - China

This aerial panoramic drone photo taken on Sept. 5, 2025 shows the Daxiaojing Grand Bridge in southwest China's Guizhou Province. Guizhou, the only province in China without a single plain and home to deep ravines, has long relied on tunnels and bridges to overcome its jagged karst landscape. Since 2012, the province has accelerated its bridge construction endeavors. Guizhou now has over 32,000 bridges either already built or under construction -- a tenfold increase compared to the 1980s. Due to its sheer number of bridges, diverse bridge types and complex construction technologies, Guizhou has earned the title of "the world's bridge museum." Photo by Ou Dongqu /Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM

Mount Fanjing Matcha Industry - China

A drone photo shows a farmer weeding at a tea garden in Jiangkou County of Tongren, southwest China's Guizhou Province, on April 16, 2025. Located at the foot of Mount Fanjing, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Jiangkou County is a powerhouse in the world's matcha industry. The county boasts over 10,000 hectares of tea plantations, nearly a fifth of which are dedicated to matcha production. In 2024, Jiangkou County produced more than 1,200 tonnes of matcha with a total output value of 350 million yuan (about 48.02 million U.S. dollars). The local matcha products have been exported to more than 40 overseas markets. Experts and agronomists believe that Guizhou, located on a plateau, possesses geographical and climatic advantages such as high altitude, low latitude, abundant fog and limited sunlight ideal for growing tea. Therefore, tea produced in this area is green, ecological and organic. Photo by Ou Dongqu/Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM

Mount Fanjing Matcha Industry - China

An aerial drone photo shows a tea garden in Jiangkou County of Tongren, southwest China's Guizhou Province, on April 16, 2025. Located at the foot of Mount Fanjing, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Jiangkou County is a powerhouse in the world's matcha industry. The county boasts over 10,000 hectares of tea plantations, nearly a fifth of which are dedicated to matcha production. In 2024, Jiangkou County produced more than 1,200 tonnes of matcha with a total output value of 350 million yuan (about 48.02 million U.S. dollars). The local matcha products have been exported to more than 40 overseas markets. Experts and agronomists believe that Guizhou, located on a plateau, possesses geographical and climatic advantages such as high altitude, low latitude, abundant fog and limited sunlight ideal for growing tea. Therefore, tea produced in this area is green, ecological and organic. Photo by Ou Dongqu/Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM

Snub-Nosed Monkey - China

A keeper interacts with a Guizhou snub-nosed monkey in a Guizhou snub-nosed monkey research center of Mount Fanjing National Nature Reserve in southwest China's Guizhou Province, April 15, 2025. The rare Guizhou snub-nosed monkey, or Guizhou golden monkey, exclusively nestled within the expanse of Mount Fanjing, a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site, is under top-level protection in China and is listed as a "critically endangered" species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Among the three species of golden snub-nosed monkeys endemic to China, the Guizhou snub-nosed monkey is the one with the smallest population, the narrowest habitat and the least ecological information. At present, there are nine captive Guizhou snub-nosed monkeys at the Guizhou snub-nosed monkey research center of Mount Fanjing National Nature Reserve, according to data from the reserve administration.

Spherical Radio Telescope - China

An aerial drone photo taken on February 18, 2025 shows tourists visiting China's Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical Radio Telescope (FAST) under maintenance in southwest China's Guizhou Province. In recent years, Guizhou has leveraged its scientific research resources such as FAST to develop educational travel for science, a favorable choice across China for inquisitive minds seeking to embark on a journey of knowledge and exploration in science. For example, FAST, the world's largest single-dish radio telescope, attracted 1.298 million visitors for educational travel for science in 2024. Photo by Xinhua/Ou Dongqu/ABACAPRESS.COM
