Tucked in the southwestern mountains of Zhejiang Province, Lishui is a region of profound natural beauty and deep cultural heritage. From the dreamy cloud-covered terraces of Yunhe and the ancient Songyang Village to the lush Fengyang Mountain Nature Reserve and timeless She Minority traditions, Lishui offers filmmakers and photographers an authentic glimpse into a China often unseen by international audiences.
However, shooting in this rugged, rural region—where language barriers are pronounced and infrastructure can be challenging—requires more than just a vision. It requires a trusted local partner.
At Pixel Productions China, we provide comprehensive production support tailored to international crews looking to tell powerful visual stories in and around Lishui.
