Following the bumper harvest of corn this year, farmers in Meilin township, Nanjing county, southeast China’s Fujian Province, have hung their corn cobs up or put them out in their yards to dry. The golden corn cobs have turned the Tulou, a type of rural dwelling in Fujian’s mountainous areas, and other local dwellings into a magnificent spectacle.
