Self-driving in Qiandongnan, experiencing the harmony between humans and nature

Starting from Shenzhen, self-driving to Qiandongnan, planned route Shenzhen self-driving (departure between 7:30-8 AM) — D1 (4 hours 40 minutes) — Huangyao Ancient Town (overnight in Huangyao) — D2 (4 hours) — Zhaoxing Dong Village (overnight in Zhaoxing) — D3 (2.5 hours) — Xiaoqikong (overnight in Libo Ancient Town) — 2.5 hours — China Sky Eye Science Base — D4 (3 hours) — Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village (overnight in Miao Village) Langde Upper Village — D5 (2 hours) — Zhenyuan Ancient Town (overnight in Zhenyuan Ancient Town for 2 nights) — D6 — return to Shenzhen (Zhenyuan was not visited due to unforeseen circumstances) Number of people: 3 Total cost: approximately 12000 (4000 per person) Huangyao Ancient Town: An ancient town with almost no original residents, suitable for leisure, vacation, and travel photography. The highlights of the ancient town include stone-paved roads, small alleys, boats in the river, and dragon claw banyan trees; it takes just over an hour to tour the whole town, and various kinds of fermented black beans are a local specialty. Accommodation: Shengzhi Mansion Hotel (such a grand name), the location and environment are both good, and the food prepared by the hotel is also delicious. Staying on the top floor offers a panoramic view of the ancient town. Zhaoxing Dong Village: Despite its strong commercial atmosphere, I personally still like it. A relatively primitive Dong village, the commercial model promotes better development of the Dong village. The five drum towers and wind-rain bridges are the biggest features and are very spectacular; the environmental protection vehicle directly reaches the entrance of the scenic spot. The night view of the Dong village from a distance is also very good👍. Accommodation: Jindang Palace Garden Hotel, a pure wooden structure at the entrance of the scenic spot, with a very good environment. Libo Xiaoqikong: The emerald of the earth, not exaggerated at all. We walked for about five hours in total, with some drifting and two transfers. From the east gate, take the sightseeing bus directly to Wolong Pond and start going downstream: Wolong Pond - Mandarin Duck Lake - Cui Valley Waterfall - Water Forest - Laya Waterfall - Xiaoqikong Bridge. The child liked the Water Forest the most. The whole journey is unforgettable. Accommodation: Green Field Inn (near the east gate of Xiaoqikong, within walking distance to the scenic gate) is not bad, but the food nearby is average. There is a very delicious Zunyi mutton noodle shop in Libo County, highly recommended. Sky Eye Science Base (Pingtang): Recommended for those who want to cultivate children's curiosity about science, otherwise not recommended. There are many people, long queues, and multiple transfers. Along the way, there is a Sky Bridge service area and scenic spot, which is free and worth seeing, very spectacular. Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village: Qianhu is really successful, very popular, just to experience it. Especially the song and dance at the central square, it is absolutely wonderful! The Miao Folk Museum in Qianhu is a must-see to understand the complete Miao culture. We prefer another Miao village - Langde Upper Village, quiet, primitive, and simple. A small stream runs through the village, and the children had a great time playing in the river. Accommodation: A homestay in Langde Upper Village. The food in the village is authentic farmhouse cuisine.
