- okeimakei, on 10/12/2007, -4/+0Cool!
- ziffel, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4The word "amazing" gets tossed around a lot here in digg submissions. Here, it's actually true. Those are some of the most beautiful photos I've ever seen, period. I just wish they had 1280x1024 wallpaper sized versions!
- newezra, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Truly amazing photos... makes me want to pack up and go for a visit.
- Ebenonce, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2That first one is amazing, like the land is in slices.
Hard to imagine that is the land that made google censor it's results.,
heh. - geomon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The karst topography is the best. Reminds me of Viet Nam.
- JiMiThInG, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Pretty cool stuff. As said above shame they are not offered in wallpaper size.

- Quantic, on 10/12/2007, -4/+1Communist Propaganda!
Very nice pictures. I still hate the chinese government though. Though they have very nice landscapes. - Amplix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1these are awesome shots, i wish i had these in widescreen wallpaper sizes.. very beautiful.
- AssFucka, on 10/12/2007, -7/+1Cool pics but China still sucks.
- pantothenic, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Chinese students have truly mastered Photoshop.
Digg+ - buddha_mjs, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0stunning images. color enhanced of course but as a photographer i know most images are.
- theprez, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1China is huge, these pictures show a small region. The title should be a little more specific. They ARE awesome. Digged of course.
- michaelg, on 10/12/2007, -9/+0These are clearly faked and photoshopped... no digg
- automagically, on 10/12/2007, -3/+1Those pictures are nice. But can you really just walk around and look at that stuff? I mean, typically, farmers might not like you walking on their property taking pretty pictures! The photographer must have connections that a regular tourist doesn't, and so it would be a misrepresentation.
My gf went to China last year. She didn't like it. It had it's tourist attractions, she saw the wall and stuff, but everything else looked like those commercials where they want money to feed the children. - sheldonator, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0WOW these are amazing pics. lol even if they were photoshopped (they might have just been enhanced) they are still amazing...stop hating ^^ and enjoy the beaty
- ybnormalman, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1wow, absolutely breathtaking!
- fuzheado, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2To Geomon (and theprez) - I don't think I saw it mentioned, but most, if not all, of those pictures are from Guilin in Guangxi province, which is just northeast of Vietnam, so the limestone karst peaks look very similar. Great shots.
- namtellum, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Seems impossible to take pictures that look so good..
- lundman, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0
Yeah nice photos, but they were doing the round about 2 weeks back.. - superset, on 10/12/2007, -5/+0this is posted once a month now. no digg.

No matter what chinese government has done, at least they don't intrude others.

- CanuckPlumber, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0what do you mean I can't digg twice
and by the way...what does it matter if there real or not...sheesh. - Nolobe, on 10/12/2007, -9/+0Fake! Anyone who has been to China will say the same thing. Fake!
China is a dirty, filthy, polluted cesspool.
Nothing more than communist propaganda. - andr3, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0I would really like to know the name of the photographer. Anyone? Photoshoped (R) or not, these are outstanding pictures. I'd love to see some of his/her work.
I agree with automagically. It's hard to really get to know a country... get out of the tourist routes. Specially if they put special effort into hidding it.
I've heard a national athlete (Vanessa Fernandes, Portugal) speak on tv about how much they conceal poverty from tourists in china -- although this applies to a lot of places around the globe. She saw it when she went biking on rural roads, outside Beijing. - sulestis, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I want high-res!
- hyoleechee, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0makes me want to cry
- Plezops, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0those are some of the coolest photos of anyplace on earth... too bad its a semi-communist country...

- capn_caveman, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0Looks peaceful. +digg
- Livewired, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1I spent my Christmas break there. I only spent one day doing typical tourist stuff in Beijing. The rest of the time was spent out in the *real* China. I fell in love with it; the land, the people, the culture. Even though it was winter, I saw some pretty amazing sights.
Remember, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. - RocketMike, on 10/12/2007, -3/+0"Wow, nolobe, you are a true idiot."
Somebody doesn't understand sarcasm. - BugMeNot2, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0If only they had larger images....
- Loony, on 10/12/2007, -2/+0Yes they are fantastic and amazing, however you can see just as many wonderful pictures by spending 5 minutes looking through flickr.
- Panoctopi, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0wow...
