Flowers are left on the “Ladder of Love", which was built as a labor of love by Liu Guojiang and Xu Chaoqing. Five decades ago, 16-year-old Liu met 26-year-old Xu Chaoqing and fell in love with her, which was seen as a taboo for a young man to tie the knot with an older widow. They ran away and live a reclusive life in the mountains. Liu hand carved 6,000 stone steps as Xu’s safe access to the outside world. (Xinhua/Chen Cheng)
