The Chinese civilization is one of the oldest in the world, and these photos will prove it is also one of the most beautiful.
If it's your first time visiting China, then Beijing, Shanghai, and Xian are a must-see. The famous Great Wall, Forbidden City, and Summer Palace are found in Beijing; Shanghai is a world-renowned metropolis with a stunning skyline; and Xian, on the Yellow River, is home to the Terra-cotta Warriors and Horses of Emperor Qin Shi Huang.

I have seen more than once where his renders get posted as photographs without anyone being the wiser. Highland Spring comes to mind as one that has been posted a lot. Perhaps the author did not know this was a copyrigted render. It goes to show how amazingly awesome Ryan is and everyone should visit his site and support him by becoming a member.
Just shows you how amazing Ryan Bliss is - his imagination provides us with a place we want to visit that is even more beautiful than reality
This is not Zhangye, not even a photograph. It is digital artwork done by Ryan Bliss of Digital Blasphemy (http://digitalblasphemy.com/preview.shtml?i=cloudterrace1). You can see the plagiarist has even reversed to picture and hidden the watermark. You should take this down; it's been posted without the artist's permission.

Those are Cormorant birds used to swoop into the water to catch the fish. They have metal rings around their gullet to prevent them from swallowing their catch. Cormorant fishing is a night time activity and the boats are far less picturesque. This is a posed photo. Inaccurate, but beautiful.
