Villagers living on cliffs | Most dangerous cliff way to the village | Chinese Cliff Village

There is a world-famous “cliff village“ in Liangshan, Sichuan Province, China, formerly known as Atuleer Village, with 72 families living here. The village as a whole is located in a mountain pass at an altitude of 1,400 to 1,600 meters. The villagers walk to the outside, outside the village need to climb the cliff drop of nearly 800 meters over the 13 steps of 218 steps of rattan escalator. The history of the village can be traced back to 200 years ago, as the background of the time was full of banditry and war in the Central Plains, the villagers came to find this place in order to find a peaceful place to escape from the world. Due to the fertile local soil, the villagers eventually settled here, away from the turmoil of the outside world, their own self-sufficient heirloom life for nearly 200 years. As it is located on a cliff more than 1000 4 meters above sea level, and the vertical distance from the ground reaches 800 meters, the village has no road from the top of the cliff to the foot of the mountain, and the road connecting the village of Atulel to the outside world is 17 rattan ladders. Villagers have to climb the ladder to get in and out of the village, so the vertical distance of up to 800 meters on the cliff climbing, the danger can be imagined, over the years this road from time to time villagers fall and even death.
