RV life forms seasonal community at Guizhou campground
Original source: TIME

Since April, hundreds of RVs have parked at the Baili Dujuan camping base in Bijie, Guizhou province, creating a seasonal community. Average temperatures around 19 C attract retirees, families and long-term travelers seeking relief from the heat. Daily parking fees range from 10 to 68 yuan depending on space and utilities. Site manager Chen Yan estimates about 42% stay three to four months, while only 10% stay less than a month. During peak season from May to September, the campground holds communal banquets, bonfire parties and performances.
