Living in a cave

4 Answer the questions.

Guizhou province

In the remote south-western Chinese province of Guizhou, there is a village built inside a huge natural cave. Wang Fengguan lives there and he is proud of his enormous cave home. The village is called Zhongdong. This means ‘middle cave’ in Chinese.

It is very difficult to get to the village because it is on the side of a high mountain. The last hour of the journey is along a narrow rocky path.

The government built some new houses for the cave people to move into. But the villagers don’t want to move. They are happy in their caves. They are trying to protect their traditional way of life.

Cave life is not easy. The villagers are poor and families earn around 129 USD a year. The nearest hospital is five hours away on foot! The floors of the caves are bare and there isn’t much furniture. The heating comes from wood fires.

But the caves have got some modern things. Today there is electricity and there are televisions in four caves. There is a satellite dish on the side of the mountain and villagers can pick up a signal for their mobile phones.

Some villagers have lived in the caves for generations. Others went to live there after the 1949 Communist revolution.
