Thousand Lights Secret Realm|In Xijiang Miao Village, I found the real-life version of "Spirited Away"!

"Answer everything with beauty!" When thousands of lights were lit up one after another between the stilt houses, I finally understood why Yu Qiuyu praised it so highly - attached is a 2-day and 1-night in-depth guide to take you to unlock the A and B sides of China's largest Miao village! --- 🚩【Famous Soul Critical Attack Scene】 1️⃣ Thousands of lights and night magic 19:30 Waiting for the observation deck! The stilt houses on the two hilltops lit up one by one, as if the Milky Way had fallen into the human world. 📸Photography metaphysics: Use long exposure to shoot car light trails + sea of ​​lights, post to Moments and get asked "Is it an AI special effect?" (⚠️Don't crowd the observation deck! Go to the stairs of Yunting Hotel, where there are fewer people and the view is even better) 2️⃣ Twelve Door-Blocking Wines · Drunk in Miao Region Pass the level first before entering the village! The ox horn cup is filled with rice wine, and the Miao girl is singing a toast song. Do you want to escape? The Lusheng team has blocked their retreat 💃 Tips: If you have a poor alcohol tolerance, raise your right hand to block the cup, otherwise you will drink 12 bowls in a row and lie down in the B&B! 3️⃣ "Beautiful Xijiang" performance·Intangible Cultural Heritage Critical Strike The open-air theater begins at 20:00! The centenarian singer sang ancient songs, and the sound of the silver ornaments colliding was like the sound of mountain springs. At the end, the whole audience danced a reunion dance, and I was forcibly pulled into the team by the aunt, dancing out the early record of human taming of limbs 😅 --- 💡【Blood and Tears Pit Avoidance Bible】 ✅ Stay in a B&B halfway up the mountain! The best place is 100 meters below the viewing platform. You will die if you drag your suitcase (warning for grinding wheels on the cobblestone road) ✅ Buy a package including sightseeing bus! 4 must-take rides, climbing uphill until you doubt your life ✅ Bargain for renting seedling clothes! 50 yuan/hour is the bottom line, headwear and collars are all included ✅ Bring mosquito repellent nuclear weapon! The mosquitoes by the river can bite your silver jewelry and make it swollen. --- 📸【Nuclear explosion camera position】 ▫️Yunting Panoramic Platform: Get the drone’s perspective, with thousands of lights as the background (reservation required) ▫️No. 5 Wind and Rain Bridge: Take photos of the reflection in the morning mist, and the bamboo rafts passing by and breaking the morning sun ▫️Terrace Trail: Running and snapping in Miao costumes, with skirts flying like butterflies ▫️ Dressing tips: Tibetan blue Miao clothing > red Miao formal clothing > modern clothing (better suited to wooden stilt houses) --- 🍜【Miaoling on the tip of the tongue】 ▪️Caotang Teahouse: Sour soup fish with wild vegetables from Leigong Mountain, eating while watching the lights on the terrace of the stilt house ▪️Hand-made glutinous rice cake: 5 yuan to experience beating glutinous rice with a wooden mallet, coated with soybean powder and fragrant enough to lick your fingers ▪️Bacon bamboo rice: freshly grilled over charcoal, the fragrance of bamboo seeps into every grain of rice --- 💌Real defense breaking moment: I met an embroiderer in Gage Ancient Lane. She taught me how to sew sachets using Miao embroidery techniques. As the silver needle shuttled through the homespun cloth, reed pipe music came from the alley entrance. Suddenly it started to rain, and rainwater dripped into the dye vat along the tiles. The aroma of indigo mixed with the smoke from cooking rose up - this was not tourism, but a slice of the Miao people's thousand-year history. --- 🌟【Hardcore Strategy】 🎫Ticket: 110 yuan (including 4 sightseeing buses) 🚌Transportation: Kaili South Station bus 35 yuan direct / Guiyang self-driving 3h 🕒Best season: July-August (green terraces)/November (Miao New Year Festival) 📌Hidden gameplay: - Take photos of the morning fog lights at 5am - Find a Miao doctor to experience scraping (10 yuan is better than a massage) Xijiang, a place where poetry is written with thousands of lights! Who will accompany me to watch the starry sky in Miao Village in the early morning next time?
