This year, I visited the most obscure place, and I'm afraid it will become popular

It was a foggy day when I arrived in Huanggang. I walked up along the viewing platform in the middle of the village, It took about 7-8 minutes to reach the highest point of the entire village. In front of me was the huge top of the drum tower, In the distance, villagers were slowly passing by with water buffaloes, All around was silent... . I don't know how to describe this place, No tickets, no commercialization, An original ecological Dong village hidden in the mountains of Guizhou. Because it is not as famous as Qianhu Miao Village and Zhaoxing Dong Village, It has retained more purity and tranquility. . Villagers wear handmade Dong clothes, Sit by the creek in front of their houses chatting, sunbathing, and drinking tea, Cutting pig grass, feeding poultry. There are almost no tourists in the entire village, it is quiet and simple, All are old houses and stilted buildings with a long history and original flavor. The tradition of burning firewood continues, The air is filled with a faint smell of cooking smoke~ . There are no check-in spots here, not suitable for bringing children, What you can see is the old appearance from hundreds of years ago. People seem to live in another time and space, No cafes, no decent hotels. . I once saw some posts saying that Huanggang is not fun, Because there are no high-end facilities. But I, Inexplicably like this kind of place. . The rice noodle shop next to the village committee is light and refreshing, with delicious soup. Hecang Meisu should be the best-viewed homestay in the entire village, located halfway up the mountain, costing more than 300 yuan per night in the off-season. . The characteristic buildings here are drum towers and wind-rain bridges, Each drum tower is tied with a strong water buffalo, The uncle feeding the buffalo told me, These water buffaloes are fighting bulls, so they are mostly tied up on weekdays, They drink more than a pound of rice wine before the competition, making them more heroic during the fight. . Unfortunately, I couldn't hear the original "Dong Grand Song" here, It is said that when the harmony starts, it is like the sound of nature, transcending ancient and modern times~ . Forget it, Traveling, There must always be some regrets, right~ . Where is Huanggang Dong Village👇🏻 Liping County, Qiandongnan Prefecture, Guizhou Province. I flew from Hangzhou to Guiyang, then rented a car and drove there. Sisters coming from other places, You can also go to Liping County, Then take a direct bus to Huanggang Dong Village. You can also choose to go from Zhaoxing Dong Village to Huanggang Dong Village, It takes about 1 hour by bus. One-way ticket: 25 yuan/person
