Peking students snap photos depicting lives of Shaanxi villagers

Smiling villagers posed with props, including a basket of dates, a freshly-picked watermelon, or a farming tool, as they presented their unadorned yet fertile lives in front of the cameras. Some sat next to their spouses or grandchildren to make a warm and adoring family photo.

Tucked away in the northeast of Shaanxi, Nihegou is adjacent to the Yellow River and boasts a long history and a rich culture. Known for its red dates, it is inhabited by some 200 villagers with an average age of 64.
