The regular visitor

Faku welcomes regular guests every year, enthusiasts who travel across China to follow in the footsteps of the white cranes to observe them and take photos.

Wang Baiyi is one of them. Despite his position as the head of a busy business, during the migratory seasons he drives to Faku and stays for several days, watching the birds and taking photos.

He has spent a small fortune on the best camera, lens and equipment, and to capture the most touching and striking images, he regularly uses branches, grass and straw as camouflage.
