Decades of logging left the people of Boduoluo village battling natural disasters brought about by deforestation. Now, a shift toward eco-tourism is reviving the remote area's fortunes. Zhang Yue reports.

The weeklong National Holiday was very busy for Liu Zhengwei, a 40-year-old farmer of Boduoluo village in Yunnan province.

Since 2008, the seven-day holiday has become the village's busiest season for tourists, and Liu, together with 96 others from the village's 31 families, have been busy guiding and accommodating visitors from all over the country and the world.
