Donglianhua: Islamic Influences (Yunnan: The China You Never Knew, episode 3)

Описание к видео Donglianhua: Islamic Influences (Yunnan: The China You Never Knew, episode 3)

Episode three of Yunnan: The China You Never Knew available now! Come with us to explore the 600 year-old Islamic town of Donglianhua.

Host Jordan Porter travels from Weishan to Donglianhua in search of a more complete historical sense of the region. Yunnan's cultural influences are vast, and in Donglianhua, Islam put down deep roots.

Jordan speaks with the town mosque's elderly imam, who can remember back to when Donglianhua had no electricity, saw few if any tourists and was completely unknown to the outside world.

Together with friend and guide, Frank Hitman, Jordan also learns about the famous Ma family, who prospered greatly as traders along the Tea Horse Road but also played a hugely important role in securing training, supplies and safe passage for anti-Japanese forces during World War II.
