2025 Guizhou Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in February)

Visit the historic cultural city of Zhenyuan Ancient Town in Guizhou and stay at the Fucheng Hotel. The hotel is built along the banks of the Wuyang River, with Shibing Mountain at its back. Its exterior features a classical Huizhou style with elements of the ethnic minorities of Yunnan and Guizhou, blending well with the architectural characteristics of the ancient town, giving it a quaint and classical charm. The hotel's location is excellent, being very close to Zhenyuan Ancient Town and Shibing Mountain Scenic Area. There are also many cultural attractions along both sides of the river, such as Kuixing Pavilion, Fire God Temple, Fuwen Temple, Zhenjiang Pavilion, and Zhenyuan County Museum, all within walking distance, making it very convenient. Most importantly, the price is affordable. A double room with breakfast costs less than 1200 TWD per night, and the room size and facilities are quite good. It's well worth staying a night in the ancient town to experience the splendid and lively night scene along the Wuyang River.

🎈If you have a three-day holiday, you would like to take a leisurely stroll in a little-known secret place❗️I think this fairy-like little village is pretty good❗️It’s in Guizhou Zunyi-Wujiangzhai!! Directly connected by high-speed train!! About transportation: Nanning-Zunyi-Zunyi South There is only one train from Nanning to Zunyi South and there is not much time to choose from, so we chose to go to Zunyi Station first, and then take the bus from Zunyi Station to Zunyi South Station. 🎈Zunyi South Station-Wujiangzhai Xizhaikou is 30💰yuan. When we return to the city, we also take a taxi from Xizhaikou to Zunyi South for 32💰yuan. I took a taxi with Amap. It feels much cheaper than Didi. Remember to stay one night in advance when returning. It’s a bit difficult to make a reservation at Xizhaikou. It’s a bit difficult to take a taxi. About staying: 🎈The ticket price for a day trip to Wujiangzhai is 80, and the ticket price for a night tour is 120 (free shuttle bus tickets and tickets for two people if you stay in a hotel in the scenic spot). We booked a hotel stay for two nights. The hotel provides Hanfu photos and check-ins, so we took our time wandering around as we thought about it. Go shopping and have fun, it turns out that staying for one night is enough! If you just want to take a day trip and don’t want to stay in the village, that’s ok❗️

Guizhou, as the only province in China without plains, boasts over 20,000 bridges among its rolling mountains. It has 50 of the 100 tallest bridges in the world, thus earning its name as the Museum of World Bridges. Limited by poor transportation network, the province stayed underdeveloped for many years. Since the 1970s, a massive infrastructure project kicked off a good start of the reshaping of Guizhou. Now, both people’s lives and tourism sector benefit from its better road complex.#awesomepic

One of THE highlights of 2022 was dragging my beloved Summer Feet™ to their first (and second! And third!) loved location - one of which almost turned into a brawl because, you know, no tougher street than the hike between hills and rice fields.(but that's a story for another day). It was a summer/ autumn of operatic proportions indeed, one in which I was privileged enough to witness six sites in 3 villages ! This one was particularly special because not only was scenic but also chilled . And what a consummate artist it is! Besides, I had an occasion to shoot this confection I collaborated with @jack and any excuse to channel a certain "Pretty town" is always a good one. I can't promise I'll make more of these in 2023 but let’s wait for it. As always, I have my dear friend @jj to thank for an operatic Chinese village trip. #2023travelwish #mytripvlog #china #guizhou

The Xiaoqikong scenic area is located in Southwest County, Guizhou Province. Xiaoqikong, which means "Bridge with seven little arches" is renowned as a wonderful summer resort in Libo County. From Libo County, we took a taxi and the whole journey was about 30 minutes. We walked to the entrance building, presented our identification cards (Passport for foreigner) and paid for entrance fee. Inside the scenic park, there were free bus rides to take tourists to different sites. Since this place is too big, tourists need at least 2 days to explore it. 😅 Additional tip: Bring your slippers coz you'll surely enjoy the cool water on foot and extra clothes when you feel sweaty from a long walk. 😅 #summervacation #tripblazers #naturewonders

These two spectacular scenic areas are located in Libo county in Guizhou province. This stunning place is surrounded by mountains full of greenery, emerald rivers, incredible caves, waterfalls, pure nature and landscapes…It’s absolutely amazing, also it’s unlikely to find many tourists in the spot because it’s huge and furthermore, the location is not really convenient, isn’t totally ready for tourism due to lack of transportation, shops and restaurants but it’s still worth visiting! . . . . #naturalwonders #scenicspotguide #summervacation #waterfall #china #nationalpark #hiking #hikingtrails #createwithtrip

Huangguoshu Waterfall, the first in Asia and the fourth in the world. I went to this long-famous Huangguoshu Waterfall alone, first took the high-speed rail, then transferred to a shared car. After arriving, I bought a ticket on the spot and had to queue up in a long line to get on the electric car. Finally, I saw this spectacular waterfall. Many staff members took photos for me. I printed the photos on the spot as a souvenir. I was very satisfied after checking in in front of the waterfall. It turns out that you can climb a flight of stone steps and pass through the middle of the waterfall to the other side, which is called the Water Curtain Cave. It is very rare to see the water flow up close from the inside of the waterfall. What is even more surprising is to see a rainbow in front of the waterfall. It is poetic and picturesque, like a fairyland. It is worth the trip to come here because of its reputation. #travelinspiration#overseastravel#hiking#i miss you#good places to go in the hot summer

The thousand household village, and the largest Miao village in China. Set in the natural basin of a valley, surrounded by paddy fields, wooden houses on stilts (known as diao jiao lou, 豆角楼) rise up off the grounds covering the hillsides. Comprised of three storeys, the first usually is usually used for storage of tools and livestock; the second acts as the bedroom, living room, kitchen; the third is used to store grain and other products. From long table banquets and colorful performances to incredible viewing decks and unique local eats, you’ll need to stay at least two days to experience everything Xijiang Miao Village has to offer. 📍Xijiang Miao Village, Guizhou, China #leaveyourmark

Amazing place and wonderful boat ride in wuchuan ,The intoxicated land of Guizhou province .

Guiyang Manchu Street is a flyover and an underground passage. It can be said that I am constantly entering the land, and it is also very interesting. On the road, I also saw a special place name, Oil Street, where the government built a ramp and a gate more than 100 years ago. The restaurant opened here opened its own frying workshop to solve the supply of rapeseed oil, and the oil-squeezed street was slowly formed. Jiaxiu Building has a history of more than 400 years. There are floating jade bridges connecting the two banks. After six repairs, the existing building was rebuilt in the first year of Xuantong (1909). There is a small exhibition hall that tells about the historical changes and important figures in Guizhou. The world's first long association, China's top ten famous buildings! ! The founder of Kung Pao Chicken Ding Baozhen, a native of Guizhou, has long experience and has always thought that it was the Kung Pao Chicken invented by the Sichuanese! (Just come to a tour group, listen to the tour guide to explain) to come out freely, if you have enough time, you can guide a lot of knowledge, you can understand a lot of knowledge, do not want money. The back of Jiaxiu Building is called Cuiweiyuan. The scenery is general, passing by, but this sentence on the wall attracted me: cool and cool Guiyang! Because Guiyang downtown streets and alleys have this slogan everywhere, and later Baidu, originally because Guiyang's climate is pleasant, winter is warm and cool in summer, the temperature in summer is also 20 degrees, suitable for summer, then the secretary of the municipal party committee lyrics, Sun Nan sings A song title is "cool and cool Guiyang", it has become Guiyang's business card, the next few days on the train infinitely loop this song, so there is a feeling on the road! Continue to hike, anyway, nothing happened in the afternoon, just take a look around, go to the snack street, pass Wenchang Pavilion, and it is a place to become a tea drink, next to Wushengmen. Then its coming to Minsheng Road, a variety of snacks, but the home is crispy duck, and the old kings family also has crispy ducks, diligent mother silk dolls, Yang Xiaoma silk dolls, all kinds of aunts. Crispy duck is divided into large, medium and small, and the middle and a half, the price is 19-60, but the home is slightly more expensive, Wang Ji's cheaper pieces, the next day to Huangguoshu on the way to buy near the train station In the middle half, 19 yuan, he couldnt do it. This road is a snack of Guiyang. The silk doll is a pancake made of rice flour. It is as thin as paper but as big as a palm. Then entangled in radish, folded ears (Houttuynia cordata) kelp silk fried soy beans, paste pepper and so on. When the locals eat, of course, it is necessary to inject sour and spicy juice. This drowning is the essence of silk dolls. The crepes are usually counted as 12 yuan, and the side dishes are infinitely looped. When a guest comes up, they will come up with a small dish. In fact, I feel a little unhygienic, and I dont have much taste. Ice powder is not as delicious as you think, it seems to be 8 yuan, can not remember, and mung bean ice powder and so on. Guiyang local silk doll shop, so it is not necessary to eat in Minsheng Road, including but the home crispy duck, the branch is also a lot, I think Huaxi beef powder is quite good, my taste Huaxi beef powder, generally two famous, Huaxi Wangji and Huaxifei bowl, have branches. Take the train to the train station. In order to get familiar with the route and distance from the train station to the hotel, I will make arrangements for the next two days. By the way, I bought the train to Anshun the next morning, because I went to Huangguoshu if I took the train. If you can only travel to Anshun on a special trip. . Bus is 2 or 20 (Guiyang bus 1-2 yuan), haha, double-decker bus.
