Each village has a drum tower, and there is a square in front of it.

Sanjiang Chengyang Dong Village is located in Linxi Town, Sanjiang Dong Autonomous County, Liuzhou City, Guangxi Province. It still preserves the ancient traditions of the Dong ethnic group, such as the three treasures of the Dong ethnic group: drum tower, big song, and wind and rain bridge. It is the best place to appreciate the Dong ethnic customs and natural scenery. According to statistics, there are currently about 3.5 million Dong people in the country.

In Sanjiang County, which borders Hunan and Guizhou in Guangxi, there are eight Yi villages. The main development villages are: Ma Anzhai, Pingzhai, Yanzhai. I have always been fascinated by the original ethnic customs in the Chengyang Bazhai. Because of the rain, the long table banquet was held in the Drum Tower. The unknown people sitting on a table were friends. The long table banquet not only can eat the food on their table, but also can be smashed into other tables. A special experience. When I was half-eaten, the host played a mountain stream and sang a toasting song while asking the guests to drink, so it was well-deserved.

On the way to Chengyang Badazhai in Sanjiang, we saw the Bird's Nest and a large bridge, so we took a bus there on the second day. The Yiyang Wind and Rain Bridge is said to be the longest wooden bridge in the world. It's 368 meters long and two stories tall. The Bird's Nest is a theater, and you can watch a Dong performance at night. We only paid admission tickets and visited during the day. It was built using 3,000 cubic meters of wood. The bridge, theater, and drum tower were all constructed using the mortise-and-tenon technique.

Unlock the unique Sanjiang experience! No crowds, stay at the "JW Marriott Courtyard" and explore the Dong villages✨ Liuzhou Sanjiang Marriott Courtyard, an international chain hotel transformed here into Dong-style architecture, is affectionately known as the "JW Marriott Courtyard." Experience Dong ethnic customs up close~ Most importantly, the price is affordable, with rooms available for just three to four hundred yuan, making it a perfect transit stop for trips to Guangxi and Guizhou. 🏨Top hotel pick The hotel itself is a scenic spot, with Dong-style design and elements visible everywhere. The suites are small but fully equipped, with bathrooms featuring two separate sinks. Both indoor and outdoor pools are perfect for vacation photos. The best part is the super convenient location, about 10 minutes from the high-speed rail station. 🌉Must-visit landmark Sanjiang Wind and Rain Bridge is an absolute must-see local landmark! This is the longest wind and rain bridge in China, spanning the Xun River. It is a crescent-shaped single-arch bridge that embodies the essence of Dong wooden architecture. It has 7 pavilions, and its overall length and scale are the largest in the world, making it the world's number one wind and rain bridge. It is entirely wooden with no metal fasteners used, and the exquisite craftsmanship of the Dong artisans can only be fully appreciated by standing on the bridge yourself! After visiting, you can go to Dongxiang Avenue opposite the bridge, where the entire street features distinctive Dong architecture, even more beautiful when lit up at night. It is also very close to Chengyang Eight Villages, about a 30-minute drive. 🍜Food highlights The hotel breakfast includes authentic local Luosifen (snail noodles)! Also available are duck feet hot pot, glutinous rice cakes, and oil tea, all Dong ethnic specialties, with a wide variety of Chinese and Western options. Local friends also recommend Dong-style sour fish soup, which is sour, spicy, appetizing, and goes perfectly with rice~ 💡Tips 1. Be sure to book Marriott Courtyard suites in advance, as they are in high demand during tourist season. 2. Renting a car is recommended for easier access to surrounding Dong villages. 3. Visiting in spring or summer may coincide with Dong ethnic festivals. 4. Use a telephoto lens to capture stunning panoramic shots of the Wind and Rain Bridge. 5.

Today, I want to share with you a stunning off-the-beaten-path travel destination—Chengyang Eight Villages🎉! It feels like a corner forgotten by time, preserving the purest Dong ethnic customs, guaranteed to make you fall in love instantly💖! 📍Chengyang Eight Villages is located in Linxi Town, Sanjiang Dong Autonomous County, Liuzhou City, Guangxi. ✈ If you’re flying in, you can first arrive at Liuzhou Bailian Airport, then take the high-speed train to Sanjiang South Station, and finally take a taxi to the scenic area🚕. 🚄 If you choose to travel by high-speed train, just get off at Sanjiang South Station. After exiting, a taxi ride of about 30 minutes will get you to the scenic area, costing around 50 yuan💰. 🚗 For those driving, just navigate to “Chengyang Eight Villages Scenic Area.” It’s about a 3-hour drive from Guilin and around 2.5 hours from Liuzhou🛣️. There are many unique homestays in the scenic area🏠. I highly recommend experiencing a stilt house homestay! Waking up in the morning, opening the window to breathe fresh air, and feeling the beauty of nature🌳. For example, the “Yueye Ge Tang” homestay not only has a prime location with a beautiful view of Yongji Bridge right outside the window but also features a terrace for stargazing✨. At night, you can join the fire pit tea party, which is super fun🥰. The “Nanyi Homestay” is also great, a designer-style stilt house with a bathtub facing the terraced fields, making you feel one with nature while soaking🛀. If you want to save some money, the “Chengyang Bridge Hotel” outside the scenic area is a good choice, costing about 150 yuan per night. It’s just a 5-minute walk to the village, offering excellent value for money👍. 🏯Chengyang Yongji Bridge: This is the iconic landmark of Chengyang Eight Villages, known as one of the “World’s Four Great Historical Bridges.” It spans the Linxi River, with a unique design featuring blue stone piers and a wooden deck topped with multiple pavilions and towers—truly spectacular👏. Standing on the bridge, feeling the breeze, and admiring the flowing water and scenery on both sides is incredibly relaxing😌. 🌉Puji Bridge: Compared to Yongji Bridge, Puji Bridge is more rustic and tranquil. It attracts fewer tourists, making it a great spot for photography📸. Arrive around 7 a.m. when the mist hasn’t lifted yet, and the whole bridge seems shrouded in a fairyland, creating photos with an amazing atmosphere✨. 🎇Drum Towers: Chengyang Eight Villages has several drum towers, each with its own story. At the Ma’an Drum Tower, you can learn spinning thread from a Dong grandmother🧵 and experience traditional handicrafts; at the Yanzhai Drum Tower, you can hear the village elder tell stories about the Dong “Kuan Yue” agreements, like a living Dong legal code📜, very fascinating. After 8 p.m., by the fire pit at the drum towers, you can enjoy roasted sweet potatoes🍠 and listen to pipa songs—a truly soul-soothing moment🎶. 🍱Hundred Family Banquet: You must try the Hundred Family Banquet🥘! For 68 yuan per person, carry a bamboo basket to collect ingredients from each household, prepare food together, cook together, and share the feast. Here, you can taste special dishes like sour fish🐟, glutinous rice wine🍶, and niu bie soup (a challenge for the brave😜). The singing contest is also fun—if you win against the girls, you might even get your meal for free🎤! 🎨Intangible Cultural Heritage Handicrafts: At the Dong cloth tie-dye workshop (Yanzhai), you can dye a unique starry blue scarf🧣 with indigo root and enjoy the fun of tie-dyeing; at Grandpa’s bamboo weaving class (Pingzhai), you can weave a little grasshopper🦗 yourself, experiencing the charm of traditional bamboo weaving and bringing back a meaningful travel souvenir🎁. 🍵Youcha Banquet: This is a special Dong ethnic breakfast! Made from fried rice, scallions, tea leaves, and more, the savory and fragrant youcha instantly energizes you💪. 🐟Sour Meat and Sour Fish: At “A Jie’s Kitchen” in Yanzhai, you must try the sour meat and sour fish🐟. These are fermented in wooden barrels for over three years, with a unique flavor that pairs perfectly with glutinous rice😍. 🐟Grilled Fish Feast: By the riverbank, you can catch rice flower fish and skewer them on branches to grill🔥, full of wild charm. The grilled fish is crispy outside, tender inside, and incredibly aromatic, leaving you wanting more😋. 🍶Glutinous Rice Wine: Don’t miss drinking plenty of glutinous rice wine at the Hundred Family Banquet🍷. It tastes sweet but has a strong kick, so don’t overindulge😜. 👟Most paths in Chengyang Eight Villages are paved with bluestone slabs and can be slippery when wet, so be sure to wear non-slip shoes to avoid falling😵. 🧴The UV rays here are strong, and there are many mosquitoes, so remember to take sun protection and mosquito repellent measures. Bring sunscreen, a sun hat🧢, mosquito repellent, and other essentials to avoid sunburn and insect bites🦟. 🎒Since most homestays are on slopes, dragging a suitcase is inconvenient. It’s recommended to carry a backpack for an easy and enjoyable trip😃. 😃The Dong people here are very warm and hospitable. Be brave and chat with them! You might hear many interesting stories and legends📖. 🎉Chengyang Eight Villages is truly a charming place. Whether it’s the unique architecture, delicious food, or warm people, it’s unforgettable💕. Everyone, pack your bags and come start an unforgettable journey here🚀!

Guibei hides such a treasure town, it really should be popular 🔥 I came back and forth more than ten times, each time I found a new surprise, I feel that I can't finish exploring! It is like a fusion treasure, eating habits with some Guizhou shadow, the county town style has a bit of Guilin Longsheng charm, at the same time is also the county of Liuzhou, the land of snail powder, and nurtures the secret and prosperous thousand-year-old Dong culture. This is my third time to check in at the Courtyard by Marriott Sanjiang 🏨 The experience exceeded expectations! The hotel is known as "JW Courtyard" among regular customers, with excellent configuration and service. The design cleverly incorporates the wooden and woven elements of the Dong ethnic group, which is full of details. I also participated in the intangible cultural experience activities arranged by the hotel and gained a lot. 🪷🪷🪷 The lotus pond at the Three Kings Palace in Heri is a photo-taking spot that cannot be missed. The bright red and emerald green are intertwined, and the ancient wind and rain bridge stands quietly as the background. It is so beautiful that it seems to have crossed into an ancient painting. Try the crispy lotus pastry freshly baked, then sit back and enjoy a heart-warming bowl of oil tea and watch the fish frolicking among the lotus leaves. 🐟🐟🐟 If the summer vacation is hot and unbearable, it is better to calm down and experience the intangible cultural heritage: learn Dong painting, make flowers on the dustpan; or try Dong embroidery, between fingertips flipping, embroider colorful flowers, birds, insects and fish. 💿💿💿 The highlight of the night is the performance of "Sitting Girl" at the Dong Country Bird's Nest. I still remember the first time I heard the Dong folk song, I was completely stunned and instantly forgot where I was. The multi-part harmony without instrumental accompaniment, like a heavenly sound, is mesmerizing. 🍃🍃🍃 Art was quietly born when humans had an immense reverence for nature. Sanjiang is the best seal! Here is the world’s tallest and largest pure wood structure drum tower! There is no need for a nail or a rivet, just supported by the exquisite mortise and tenon structure, you will be amazed by what you see with your own eyes. There are also those wind and rain bridges that connect the pavilions and pavilions. They are not only beautiful in shape, but also can attract the wind from the hall and block the rain in all seasons. On summer nights, local residents often take a walk on the bridge to cool off. From the hotel room, you can see the wind and rain bridge across the Weijiang River, and there are more than 200 such wind and rain bridges in Sanjiang! The beauty of Sanjiang is rich and diverse, and its hospitality is even more passionate. Don't remember to go to Yue Ye Dong Village to experience the highest hospitality ceremony "Hundred Family Banquet"! Every household in the village will bring out their own good wine and dishes. You can take a bowl and "tour food" throughout the place. Such a unique and lively experience is definitely a unique memory of the Dong village.

I was intimidated by the crowds in Guiyang during the summer vacation. Heard that Sanjiang Dong Village was quite small, I decided to check it out. On my first day in Sanjiang, I braved the pouring rain and walked 4 kilometers back and forth to the Chengyang Wind and Rain Bridge. Sure enough, I was the only one enjoying the cool breeze on the bridge, with local elderly people and children playing. The bridge is magnificent, and the scenery from above is breathtaking. The next day, I took a taxi to Chengyang Eight Villages. There were very few tourists, so I took photos of the scenery instead. I was deeply impressed by the Dong people's architectural craftsmanship and aesthetics.

We spent two unforgettable days on the beautiful island of Pingtan — a place where the sea breeze carries the scent of salt and adventure. We arrived around noon, and were immediately impressed by how convenient it was to get here thanks to the high-speed railway station on the island. After a simple but tasty lunch at one of the local restaurants, we headed straight to the beach. Longfeng Beach was spacious, clean, and peaceful. Facilities like toilets, showers, and foot-rinsing areas made our visit very comfortable. The beach is lined with a few cozy cafés, and we ended the evening with dinner in one of them, listening to the waves and watching the sun dip behind the horizon. Day 2 began with a warm Chinese breakfast at Pingtan Skyline Original Hotel. We then rented an electric scooter and set off to explore the island 🏝️ — a perfect way to enjoy the coastal breeze and open roads. Our first stop was Changjiang’ao Windmill Fields (长江澳风车田). The sight of dozens of wind turbines rising out of the sea was absolutely breathtaking — a surreal and majestic view that stays with you. Next, we visited Beigang Stone House Village (北港村石头厝). The scenery was pleasant, and the old stone houses had a rustic charm, though the area felt a bit quiet and less remarkable than we expected. Afterward, we made our way to the mysterious Xianren Well (仙人井). The spot has an unusual beauty, but we were slightly disappointed to find that the famous well was mostly hidden behind a fence and wild overgrowth, making it hard to take a good photo. The view from the water side seemed far more dramatic — though fleeting, as we only had a short time to enjoy it. As the day went on, we continued our little island road trip, passing through authentic villages where traditional stone houses stand quietly, each with heavy rocks on their rooftops to guard against the sea winds. We ended our day with dinner and returned to the hotel, feeling peaceful and content. We were lucky with the weather — cloudy, breezy, and not too hot, which made our journey even more enjoyable. Pingtan is a quiet gem, perfect for slow exploration, gentle discovery, and coastal charm. 💞Reasons to Recommend: 1. Breathtaking Natural Scenery 2. Easy and Convenient Access 3. Clean, Spacious Beaches 4. Perfect for Scooter Adventures 5. Incredible Photo Spots 6. Peaceful Coastal Vibe #PingtanIsland #islandgetaway #chinatravel #hiddengemschina

In northern Guangxi, two hidden gems await exploration — Sanjiang and Longji, resembling idyllic retreats that beckon travelers to unveil their mysteries. Today, follow this guide and embark on a magical journey filled with ethnic charm and breathtaking terrace landscapes! 🚀 ### Must-Visit Attractions (1) Sanjiang **Chengyang Eight Villages** 🌄 Stepping into Chengyang Eight Villages feels like traveling back in time. Comprising eight Dong ethnic villages, it preserves the authentic Dong culture. The Chengyang Yongji Bridge, one of the world's four historic bridges, spans the river without a single nail or rivet, relying solely on mortise and tenon joints—a marvel of craftsmanship. Stroll across the bridge, enjoy the pastoral scenery, and feel the gentle breeze for a truly relaxing experience. The Yanzhai Drum Tower and Pingzhai Single-Pillar Drum Tower showcase unique Dong architectural artistry. These towers are not just gathering places for villagers but also symbols of Dong culture.

Adorned with intricate carvings, it’s both functional and visually stunning. Walking across, you’ll appreciate the Dong architectural charm while admiring the serene river beneath. (2) Longji Terraces **Jinkeng Terraces** 🌾 The vast and majestic Jinkeng Terraces are a sight to behold. The No. 1 Viewing Platform, "Xishan Shaoyue," is perfect for sunrise and sea of clouds. At dawn, golden light dances across the terraces amid mist, creating a fairy-tale scene. Drive directly to Longji Terraces Shangmei Homestay for easy access. The No. 2 Viewing Platform, "Thousand-Layer Ladder," offers a bird’s-eye view of terraces resembling steps to the sky. For adventure, hike from Jinkeng Parking Lot—though tiring, the views are worth it. Alternatively, drive to Longji Kelai Fu Villa for direct access. The No. 3 Viewing Platform, "Golden Buddha Peak," is accessible via cable car (round-trip ticket: ¥100/person, sold at Jinkeng Parking Lot).

The former offers views of nine ridges and five peaks, like dragons and tigers guarding the land. The latter features seven terraced fields encircling a round one, resembling "seven stars accompanying the moon." Here, you’ll also see unique Zhuang stilt houses blending harmoniously with the terraces. ### Unique Experiences **Dong Ethnic Hundred-Family Banquet** 🥘 In Chengyang Eight Villages, join a Dong Hundred-Family Banquet. Hospitable Dong families serve their best dishes on long tables at the drum tower square.

Dress in Zhuang jackets or Yao embroidered skirts adorned with silver accessories, and take photos against terraces or drum towers for unforgettable memories. **Farming Activities** 🌾 If visiting during planting or harvest seasons, join local farming activities. Plow fields, transplant rice seedlings, or harvest crops with farmers, gaining a deeper appreciation for traditional agriculture and the hard work behind every grain. ### Food Recommendations **Sanjiang Oil Tea** 🍵 A Dong traditional dish and perfect breakfast. Crush tea leaves, puffed rice, peanuts, and ginger in a special pot, boil with water, then add scallions and cilantro. Sip this fragrant tea to refresh and warm your body and soul. **Longji Bamboo Tube Rice** 🚀 A must-try in Longji. Glutinous rice, cured pork, and beans are stuffed into fresh bamboo tubes and slow-cooked over charcoal. The rice absorbs the bamboo’s aroma, becoming soft and flavorful, with the cured meat adding a rich taste. **Dong Sour Pork and Sour Fish** 🐟 Dong-style sour dishes are unique. Pork or fish is fermented with salt, chili, and glutinous rice, resulting in a tangy, appetizing flavor—a staple on Dong dining tables.
