Anhui Ayi
This remarkable woman is 63 years old. Six days a week, she spends 4.5 hours carrying a biāndān up Jiuhuashan (Jiuhua Mountain), hauling 40 kilos of cinder blocks, all while wearing hotel bedroom slippers. Why does she do it? To save money for her granddaughter's education. She earned at the time 40 yuan per round trip.
