For Chen Honghan, the journey to school has changed from a treacherous 3-hour walk to a safe thirty-minute trip. He feels like flying through the clouds, thanks to the "cloud school bus".
Chen comes from Nizhuhe Village at the border(边界)of Yunnan and Guizhou Provinces. For several years, Chen and his classmates had to walk on muddy roads to reach their school on the top of the cliffs(悬崖).
However, this difficult travel has changed into a wonderful tour now. They first ride a 6-minute scenic bus(观光车)and then take a lift(电梯)that climbs 268 metres. Next, they take a cable car ride that climbs over 200 metres.After a one-kilometre walk, they can arrive at the school in just less than 30 minutes.
The change began with the introduction of the eco-cultural tourism in 2017. The programme helped build a cliffside lift in 2018 and a cable car in 2022. They were free for the villagers there. The "cloud school bus" not only safely sends the village children to school but has also attracted many visitors to the area.
In 2024,300,000 visitors came, bringing in the profit(利益)of nearly 20 million yuan. This has also improved local villagers' lives, with many starting businesses like farmstays, coffee shops and guest houses. What's more, some young villagers have returned to their hometown to work for this growth.
Cai Xiong is one of them who led many amazing programmes like the cliffside lift. "This tourism programme is meant not only to help the villagers get success, but also to serve as a 'ladder(梯)to the clouds' for the children. I hope they will climb this ladder, gain experience, grow, and finally return with the skills to make their hometown even better," he said.
