DescriptionScenic view of vast, flat farmland in the Canton Delta of the Upper Panyu. A house can be seen in the distance on the left at the edge of the trees.

Publication: "Windows on a Chinese Past - Vol. 1", by James Ng, pub. Nov. 1993. Image on page 20.

Caption from book: "Though at the drier apex of the Canton (Zhujiang) Delta, the flat agricultural lands of Upper Panyu were closely worked and highly productive, most of the farmlets being no larger than allotments and supporting a high population density. [Rev. Herbert Davies, The Canton Villages Mission, 1916]" Last edited by: Susan Garwood
