Article Abstract:

The journey to the Wenhai Ecolodge, in a valley amidst the mountains of South China is an experience in itself as visitors have to fly into a town called Lijiang, then ride on horseback for around eighteen kilometers and then descend into a wide valley where one is confronted with a breathtaking sight of a solar-powered house. The place is out of this world where one cannot use cell-phones or watch television.
