People accustomed to living in steel reinforced concrete megacities can hardly imagine what it feels like to face a castle.
In Yangchuan City, a hundred square meters of commercial housing is the goal that most people strive for. It suffices for a household of three without feeling cramped, and there could be hundreds of such houses in a residential complex covering dozens of acres. Each building is divided into neat concrete cells, packed with people living close together.
Even the enviable detached villas are no more than an acre in size, with fewer than ten rooms and an area of just two or three hundred square meters. Yet, it already feels incredibly spacious.
The Eibek Castle before their eyes, even from nearly a hundred meters away across the natural stone bridge, looks like a colossal structure carved from the mountains, standing tall between heaven and earth.
