This place is known as the "invisible village" because when you come here, no one can see the houses, and the people "hide" underground.

It is a village in Henan province, China. According to new information, this village dates back thousands of years, found in the late Qing Dynasty. According to Chinadaily/Business Insider.

These houses are built underground at a depth of 6-7m and are 12-15m long. According to Chinadaily/Business Insider.

These underground houses are cool in the summer and warm in the winter. According to Chinadaily/Business Insider.

Every house here has a large yard and a deep tunnel leading to the surface. According to Chinadaily/Business Insider.

The entrance to the underground courtyard is a tunnel several dozen meters long, with steps leading to the entrance, roof edges above, and a surrounding road that makes first-time visitors think it's an invisible village, with only trees and barking dogs. According to Chinadaily/Business Insider.

The houses all have cooking rooms, bathrooms, and livestock... like houses on the ground. According to Chinadaily/Business Insider.

People here store food in bamboo baskets, covered with rice husks, and sealed with mud for three years without spoiling. According to Chinadaily/Business Insider.
