It Takes A Village – of Chinese Dwarves!

Walt Disney World’s got nothing on China when it comes to combining experiments in social engineering with kitschy tourist attractions;

“A community of dwarves has set up its own village to escape discrimination from normal sized people. Everyone in the mountain commune in Kunming, southern China, must be under 4ft 3ins tall – and they run their own police force and fire brigade from their 120 residents.

Now the group has turned itself into a tourist attraction by building mushroom houses and living and dressing like fairy tale characters.”
