Fly directly at midnight! A 4-hour whirlwind tour of Guiyang's spicy and sour world, a 3-day, 2-night spree you won't want to leave!

Family, who understands?! Colorful Guizhou Airlines' newly launched red-eye flight is amazing! Take off from the airport at night, sleep soundly, and wake up to "Cool Guiyang"—a pleasant 25°C temperature, even the air smells of fresh grass and trees! This 3-day, 2-night essential itinerary includes a Citywalk, canyon rafting, and stunning Miao village scenery, all in one place, covering the best of spicy, sour, and savory flavors! ✨ Trip Highlights: Unlock N ways to experience Guiyang in 3 days Day 1: City Life Stroll - Morning: Head straight to "Qianling Mountain Park"! Free to explore the mountain and see the monkeys—they're not afraid of people at all (but please don't feed them!). Ancient temples are hidden in the greenery, emphasizing a tranquil "city within mountains, mountains within city" experience. - Noon: Indulge in a bowl of authentic "Changwang Noodles"! The bright and rich red oil broth is delicious; crispy pork belly, fatty intestines, and blood tofu are simply divine. Add a fried egg to soak up the broth, and the spicy flavor will instantly awaken your taste buds! - Afternoon: Check out Guiyang's landmark, "Jiaxiu Tower." The Nanming River flows through the tower, and the ancient architecture makes for naturally photogenic pictures! Next door is "Qingyun Market," a hub of creative snacks and handmade shops—perfect for shopping, eating, and taking photos. The evening lights are especially photogenic. - Evening: Head to "Dongshan Mountain Park"! A 10-minute hike will take you to the viewing platform to watch the sunset paint the sky orange-pink. As the city lights come on, the view of thousands of lights against the distant mountain silhouette is absolutely breathtaking! Day 2: A Collision of Ancient Charm and Fantasy (Choose one, no need to agonize) - Option A (Natural Wonder): A visit to "Huangguoshu Waterfall"! The awe-inspiring power of Asia's largest waterfall is beyond words. The spray washes over you, and walking through the Water Curtain Cave feels like stepping into a fairyland. Along the way, check out Doupotang and Tianxing Bridge, surrounded by soothing greenery. - Option B (Cultural Hidden Gem): Stay at "Xijiang Miao Village"! The stilted houses on the mountainside are lined up one after another. In the afternoon, stroll through the ancient street, wear Miao costumes and take photos. At night, watch the lights of thousands of homes illuminate the valley, and look up at the dazzling Milky Way – a truly immersive experience! Day 3: Local Hidden Gem - Relaxing Getaway - Morning: Head to "Qingyan Ancient Town"! Climb the Ming and Qing dynasty city walls for panoramic views of the town. A must-try is the tender and flavorful braised pig's feet, dipped in chili powder – so fragrant you'll lick your fingers! Then, enjoy a bowl of ice jelly to cleanse your palate. A leisurely stroll is incredibly relaxing. - Afternoon: Explore "Yelang Valley"! Stone castles and totem sculptures create a fantastical kingdom. Every photo you take will be a masterpiece of exotic beauty. Less crowded and with stunning scenery, even those with social anxiety can take photos with confidence. - Evening: Finish off with a delicious "Sour Soup Fish" meal! The tangy and spicy red soup is incredibly appetizing. The fresh fish cooks in just a few seconds, and the tofu and bean sprouts soak up the broth perfectly. Finish with a bowl of sweet glutinous rice served as a base for a bean and rice hotpot – pure bliss! 💡 Travel Tips - Transportation: Guiyang's attractions are spread out. For Huangguoshu Waterfall and Miao Village, it's recommended to book a local day tour or hire a car to save time and effort and avoid detours. - Food: Besides Sour Soup Fish and Silkworm Dolls, be sure to try "Love Tofu Fruit" (baked until crispy and dipped in houttuynia cordata sauce) and Gaoba Porridge (sweet, sticky, and refreshing). The houttuynia cordata is the soul of the dish; those who can't tolerate it should be cautious. - Essentials: Mountain weather is unpredictable, with significant temperature differences between day and night. Bring a light jacket and portable rain gear, and comfortable shoes for long walks. The new air route is so amazing! Just 4 hours to the heart of Guiyang's culinary scene, 3 days to sample authentic local delicacies and explore its natural and cultural wonders – gather your friends and embark on a spontaneous trip to Guiyang!
