After purchasing the ticket, the staff will enthusiastically guide you to the bus station to take the bus! Tickets🎫: Miao Village ticket: CNY 110 per adult (including 4 sightseeing bus rides) 🚌 The sightseeing bus in the scenic area is included in the ticket, and you can take it 4 times. If you take it more than 4 times, you will need to pay an additional CNY 5 each time! The direct bus to the scenic area goes to the north gate. Recommended sightseeing bus route: 1️⃣ North Gate ➡️ Small North Gate (Explore the Miao Village) 2️⃣ No. 1 Wind and Rain Bridge ➡️ Viewing Platform (Overlook the panoramic view of the Miao Village on the uphill section) 3️⃣ Viewing Platform ➡️ No. 1 Wind and Rain Bridge (Experience Miao architecture and culture on the downhill section) 4️⃣ Small North Gate ➡️ North Gate (End✔️) ‼️ According to the above route, you can use the sightseeing bus 4 times❗️ Photography📷 1️⃣ Mucao Coffee (A nice coffee shop in the scenic area) 2️⃣ Caotang Tea House (A restaurant with delicious food and great photo opportunities) 3️⃣ Shanye Souvenir (A handmade tie-dye shop run by an old lady) 4️⃣ Pigsty Coffee (You can swing with a receipt, but the road to the shop is steep and the steps are narrow, so it is recommended to wear non-slip shoes) Food You must try the black pork skewers, made from freshly slaughtered black pigs and skewered by the grandmother in the morning. CNY 10 for 10 skewers! The meat is tender and juicy! You won't be disappointed! Accommodation tips💭 When visiting the Miao Village, be sure to ask if there is a luggage service when booking a homestay, as you will need to walk on your own in the scenic area, and the downhill road is steep with steps, so it is easy to fall when carrying your luggage! There are many homestays, and it is now the off-season, so you can choose carefully after entering the scenic area, or search and book online. Tips💓 If you have any questions, feel free to ask the locals! They will be happy to help you! Have fun😀

I went to Guizhou in the first half of the year. After coming back, he told everyone about those mysterious things like a demon. Low-key and treasure-hidden villages and buildings. My travel companion did not let me go, Asked to take her along for the trip. So, I visited Guizhou again... . ✈️【Itinerary】 ✅D1-2: Guiyang - Yelang Valley - Wujiang Village - Kaili ✅D3: Kaili - Xiasi Ancient Town - Huangping Feiyun Cliff - Langde Miao Village - Kaili ✅D4: Kaili-Xiuli Tao Intangible Cultural Heritage Market-Huanggang Dong Village . 📌【Tips for playing】 ✅Huaxi Yelang Valley: A stone kingdom built by one person in 20 years, full of exotic atmosphere, 20 yuan ticket, take a lot of photos. ✅Wujiang Village: Take a rowboat to see the stilt houses on the blue waves of Wujiang River during the day, and watch the bright lights in the mountains in the evening.

Hanamiyama under the mountain Shop 1, G/F, Shun Tai Building, Western District In Sai Ying Pun's neighborhood shop, there are many family customers when you enter, it has the warm warm feeling of the shop🥺 Deli fried sushi is available, both adults and children have something to eat. The shopkeeper recommends tamagoyaki, pot and sushi platter. Hanami 10-kwan, the sushi rice already has soy sauce, no need to order extra, this time the toro is very thick and sweet, the seaweed is very fresh and sweet! Golden line bream for the first time, the meat is quite bouncy, and oily fish specially served with grapefruit sauce, folded not strange but also lift the freshness of the fish ~ The mint chicken wings are also great, very full and stuffed chicken wings, the crust is very crispy and the inside is hot, I want to encore! ! Instead, tofu mixed vegetable pot and eel tamagoyaki is a bit disappointing, the pot of tofu has roasted quite heart, but the soup is nothing special, it is like the dormitory themselves can cook so, tamagoyaki is older, more like an omelet, eel also has a lot of small bones, anyway these two will not be next time. #wintertrip #countryside #foodie

Kaili is home to one of the biggest ethnic Miao villages in China and, thankfully, it’s very accessible to visit. A bus ride from the city centre, the ethnic village is located between the hills so there’s plenty of opportunities to get an aerial perspective. Historic on the outside but still nice on the inside, many of the buildings have been converted for the tourist flock - whether it be bougie hotels, nice cafes or decent places to stop and get some snacks the visit should be fairly easy. As with all of Guizhou, getting off the beaten track and exploring how deep into the alleyways you can get is always the best way forward. #historicculture#ancientarchitecture#café#museumquest#hipsterbookstore#culturalattractions#hiking

Kaili, known as the "Pearl of Miao Hills," is a city full of unique charm. It has a profound historical background, with over 600 years of history since its establishment in the 7th year of the Hongzhi reign of the Ming Dynasty. It is also a place mainly inhabited by the Miao ethnic group along with multiple other ethnic groups, rich in ethnic customs and known as the "Hometown of a Hundred Festivals." Every inch of this land tells ancient stories, and every corner exudes a unique ethnic atmosphere. Here is a 3-day 2-night travel guide to Kaili, taking you to deeply experience the beauty of this city. Itinerary Day 1: Langde Miao Village - Wudong Miao Village - Baiyan Village In the morning, you can choose to rent a car or take a carpool to Langde Miao Village to catch the early morning door-blocking wine ceremony and song and dance performances. Langde Miao Village was established at the end of the Yuan and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, with a history of more than 600 years, divided into two natural villages, upper and lower. The "Long Skirt Miao" living here still maintain their ancient and traditional lifestyle. The twelve door-blocking wine ceremonies are the highest form of hospitality here. From the foot of the village road to the village gate at the head, there are twelve wine checkpoints, each with two local bowls, symbolizing blessings of longevity and prosperity. If you are not good at drinking, you can cross your hands behind your back, bend over, lightly touch the wine cup with your lips, and say "Doushe Mo" (Miao language for "thank you") to "pass." After enjoying the enthusiastic Miao song and dance performances, you can stroll around the village for 4-5 hours, experiencing the ancient stilted buildings and cobblestone alleys. For lunch, it is recommended to dine at Caicai’s in Langde Ancient Town to try local specialties. In the afternoon, head to Wudong Miao Village, located in the middle section of Leigong Mountain at an altitude of 1306 meters, with well-preserved original natural ecology. This Miao village developed as a place of refuge and has nearly 300 years of history. The stilted buildings here are built along the mountains and rivers, very distinctive. After exploring Wudong Miao Village, proceed to Baiyan Village for an overnight stay. Dinner can be enjoyed at Huajie’s home, and accommodation and coffee are recommended at Muyunjian or Sanduoyun, where you can enjoy a peaceful rural night. Day 2: Baiyan Village - Xiangshuiyan Waterfall - Leishan County - Kaili Start the morning with a pleasant country walk in Baiyan Village, feeling the tranquility and beauty of the countryside, breathing fresh air, and enjoying the pastoral scenery. In the afternoon, go to Xiangshuiyan Waterfall for creek tracing and water play. The waterfall here is magnificent, surrounded by lush trees, making it a great place to get close to nature.

#chinatravel My 2-day trip to Kaili, Guizhou turned out to be more than just ticking off well-known sights—it led me to an unexpected treasure: Nanhua Miao Village. Untouched by commercialization, this serene village offered an immersive cultural experience with not a tourist in sight. Earlier, I visited Xiasi Ancient Town, a riverside gem once known as “Little Shanghai,” where clear waters and mountain views brought a deep sense of nostalgia. Langde Miao Village was scenic too, but a bit crowded and rainy. It wasn’t until the spontaneous detour to Nanhua that I truly felt the magic—authentic stilted houses, peaceful surroundings, and rich ethnic charm. #travel #trip #china #staycation #thingstodo #myitinerary

#chinatravel This 2-day trip in Kaili, Guizhou, was full of unexpected discoveries and authentic local experiences. After arriving at Kaili South Station, I rented a car and drove just 20 minutes to Xiasi Ancient Town, where the emerald-green Qingshui River flows through a peaceful old town filled with traditional architecture, a riverside post office, and small docks—earning it the nickname “Little Shanghai” during the Republic era. A short boat ride (RM6) offered a refreshing view of the town. The next day, after a quick stroll through the local morning market, I visited Langde Miao Village, known for its stilted houses, wind-and-rain bridges, and ethnic dance shows—though the crowd and rain made it feel cramped. But the highlight came unexpectedly when I spotted a charming village on the way—Nanhua Miao Village. With no crowds and barely any commercialisation, it offered a peaceful, immersive cultural experience. I spent over two hours there before heading back to the train station, feeling completely satisfied with this hidden-gem adventure. #travel #trip #china #staycation #thingstodo #myitinerary
