Guangzhou was a vastly important nexus of the Ancient Maritime Silk Road. Huang Pu Port played a key role as a bustling port in the region, beginning in the Song Dynasty (960~1279AD).  Today it no longer serves as a key trading center, but the architecture and village's seclusion remain beautifully preserved.  

Taken from across the river from HuangPu Port at dusk, this recording captures the constant hum of a village now dedicated to local fishing, construction, and - during the day - tourism.  José and I were there and had his clarinet, so at the very end, you'll hear a little addition he added to the soundscape.
