Visiting the Qianhu Miao Village during the off-season is worry-free and feels like being in a world of fairy tales and martial heroes!

Visiting the Qianhu Miao Village during the off-season is simply fantastic! You can freely take photos throughout the village without any pressure. The stilted Miao houses scattered across the mountains, nestled among green hills and clear waters, create a scene of beauty that feels like being in a fairy tale world when all the lights are lit at night. There are numerous spots for sightseeing and photo opportunities. There are six Wind and Rain Bridges, with the fourth and fifth ones being particularly revered; the Yunting Hotel offers a panoramic night view of the entire Qianhu Miao Village, and Fang Qi has also shot here, with excellent results in blue tones, especially when the lights are on, it's like stepping into a scene from a fairy tale drama; the Lusheng Field hosts wonderful cultural performances every day, where you can enjoy the songs and dances of Miao girls; the viewing platform offers nice views both during the day and at night; the lively Youfang Street, with its array of Miao specialty shops, is a great place for close-up portraits of young ladies. Transportation is also very convenient. You can take the high-speed train from Guiyang to Kaili South Station, then take a direct bus to the scenic area from the right side of the exit, with buses departing every hour and a fare of eighteen yuan, or a taxi for about one hundred and ten yuan. Self-driving is also convenient; you can choose the west or north gate depending on where you're staying, about 2.5 hours from Guizhou, with a parking fee of thirty yuan per day. The parking lot is a ten-minute walk from the entrance to the scenic area, and you need to take a sightseeing bus to enter. The entrance fee to the scenic area is one hundred yuan, but it's free for residents of Foshan and Zhejiang. For dining, the Old Village at the viewing platform is highly recommended, with delicious rice dishes and greens. There are many special foods in Southeast Guizhou, such as sour soup beef, reed pond sauerkraut fish, rice tofu, sweet zongzi, and cured meat, etc. For accommodation, I chose Sanchunli. There are three hotels here, each with its own characteristics, and all facilities and equipment are shared. Sanchunli · Ji Huayuan Meisu is only five meters from the scenic viewing platform, with a coffee bar and book bar, and the mountain view rooms offer a panoramic view of the terraced fields, with an interesting batik experience hall on the first floor. Sanchunli · Meng Holiday Hotel has the only cliffside infinity pool in the Miao Village, which is super photogenic, and you can also have a drink at the 'Rebirth Bar' at night. The forest SPA here is also worth experiencing. Sanchunli · Zhong Quanjing Meisu is located at a commanding height of the Miao Village, with each room offering a stunning window view, and a private viewing platform, allowing you to enjoy the lights of thousands of Miao homes without leaving your room.
