Surprisingly life-like - China duplicates whole Greek island

Santorini, the picturesque Greek island, now has a look-alike in China. This time, it's not by the sea but in a lake nestled in the province of Yunnan. A whole vacation resort has been created here, complete with typical whitewashed houses like the ones you'd find in the "Santorini Dali Resort."
