Known by anthropologists as the "living fossil of Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) life," Tianlong Tunpu town in southwest China's Guizhou has kept the lifestyle of the Ming Dynasty for over 600 years. Local residents, descendants of ethnic Han soldiers during the early Ming Dynasty, have preserved customs such as dixi opera, or ground opera, which was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage item in 2006.
