It was in October 2012 when Chen quit his job at Volkswagen Finance China and drove more than 2,700 kilometers toward Lijiang, a tourist city in southwestern China, with good air, clear streams, snowy mountains and an undisturbed landscape inhabited by friendly people while being geographically remote.

In recent years, a growing number of elderly people, who have retired with good financial status for example an enviable pension plan in first tier cities, opt to live in communities specially designed for aging population with appropriate medical workers and facilities, a trend widely discussed nationwide.
