Unusual Journey to study: children walk hours on foot to school(7/10)

Elementary students and their parents walk on a snow-covered mountain road to school in Guanyin township, Zhenba county, Northwest China’s Shaanxi province, Jan 29, 2015. Twenty-two students from the remote Bajiaomiao village have to walk four kilometers on foot, including rugged mountain roads and rivers, to reach the nearest elementary school. They usually get up at 6:00, leave the home at 6:30, and arrive at school one and a half hours later. Bad weather in winter made the journey more difficulty.[Photo/hsw.cn]
