Reuters photographer David Gray was amazed and amused to see farmers working their fields amid the ruins. “I came across a rather farcical sight of some farmers digging a well next to a castle; a moment I will always savor as a photographer in a place like China where castles are not in huge supply,” wrote Gray in the Reuters’s Photographers Blog. He called Wonderland “another sad example of property development in China involving wasted money, wasted resources and the uprooting of farmers and their families.”
