Our visit to a Miao minority village in Guizhou was a fascinating experience that allowed us to immerse ourselves in the rich culture and traditions of this ancient community. We were especially intrigued by the stunning Miao dresses that we saw, which were intricately embroidered and adorned with silver jewelry. Serena was particularly taken with the dresses, and she decided to rent a local costume for our visit. As she posed for photos on the village square, she looked like a true Miao princess, with her dress and jewelry shimmering in the sunlight. But our visit was about more than just admiring the beauty of the Miao dresses. We also had the opportunity to learn about the history, culture, and customs of the Miao people. We were fascinated by the community's unique architecture, which included stilt houses and wooden bridges. We also learned about the Miao's rich tradition of embroidery, which has been passed down through generations of women. Overall, our visit to the Miao minority village in Guizhou was a truly enriching experience that left us with a deep appreciation for the beauty and richness of this ancient culture. We highly recommend it to anyone seeking an authentic and enlightening cultural experience.

While touring through Guizhou, we visited a lot of different Miao Villages, but there is one that really seems to stand out in my mind: Langde. During our stay, it wasn't packed with tourists, and there are actually two parts of the village that you can explore - the upper and the lower part. We received a really warm welcome from the local villagers - a procession of musicians and small cups filled with rice wine as you enter the grounds of the village; followed by a performance of local song and dance. Following this warm welcome, we were left to our own devices to wander - without a doubt it is a quiet village, where local culture and traditions are kept alive by those still living there.

For a few days of travel, we chose to travel in the morning and drive across cities/counties in the afternoon to change accommodations, so that the children could take a nap in the car, and the two fathers took turns driving. I have to say that Guizhou's cultural tourism can be handled ❗ Most attractions in the province are free of charge during the year of birth, saving a lot of money The itinerary is as follows, UU who are planning to visit Guizhou can refer to it👇🏻 [Day 1: Guiyang-Libo (Mengliu Buyi Style Town)] We landed in Guiyang and headed straight to Libo after picking up the car at the airport. After arriving in the afternoon and checking in, we wandered around the town. There were local buildings everywhere. The big drum in Tonggu Square was very representative. There were also many restaurants in the town. It was very convenient in all aspects. 【Day2: Libo Xiaoqikong-Kaili】 🎫Xiaoqikong ticket + sightseeing bus 170 yuan, sightseeing bus alone 50 yuan (ticket is valid within 2 days, you can make an appointment online) At 7:30, we walked 10 minutes from the B&B to the Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. The scenery was beautiful. There were free sightseeing buses between the scenic spots (it was necessary to walk from the Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge to the Stone Forest). We played for more than 5 hours before leaving the park. After lunch outside the scenic area, we went directly to Kaili. ✔️Don't miss: Experience the Raya Waterfall up close, take photos at the Broken Bridge Waterfall, and check in at the Cuigu Waterfall, the filming location of "Go Adventure with Bear Grylls". ❌The walking distance from Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge to Shishang Forest is a bit long. There are sedan chairs along the way, which will exaggerate the remaining distance and the price is very high. ❌The exit of the scenic spot is decorated in a grand style. Don't eat in the restaurant that receives tour groups. Avoid it. [Day3: Langde Miao Village - Guiyang - Jiaxiu Tower] 🎫Ticket price: 50 yuan + round trip sightseeing bus: 10 yuan (free ticket for children under 1.2 meters) Avoid the crowds in Qianhu Miao Village. Langde Miao Village is small and beautiful. The experience is great. You can rent a set of clothes for 30 yuan here and take pictures in the stilt houses, wind and rain bridges, and alleys. It feels great~📷 There are twelve wine bars and singing and dancing performances at specific times, which is very cost-effective. Drive to Guiyang in the afternoon and visit Jiaxiu Tower after dinner (free admission) 【Day 4: Qianling Mountain Park-Return to Beijing】 🎫Free tickets (reservation required) On the morning of the return day, we went to Qianling Mountain Park to see 🐒 and red pandas.

| Langde Shangzhai • Listen to the Bamboo Sheng of a 90-Year-Old Man. Stepping into the embrace of Langde Miao Village, I had the fortune to listen to the melodious sound of the bamboo sheng played by a 92-year-old elder 🎵. Among the many Miao villages, Xijiang is famous for its strong commercial atmosphere, so I deliberately ended my trip to southeastern Guizhou in Langde Miao Village in Leishan County, which seems like a piece of pure land in the noisy world. Although it was summer, with the warm August sun generously bestowing 30 degrees of warmth, this heat did not dispel the tranquility and remoteness of Langde Miao Village. Even on weekends, the footsteps of tourists were not as dense. Apart from the laughter of a tour group, there were more travelers like me, wandering alone in this quaint village. By noon, the entire Miao Village seemed to be awakened by an invisible force. Villagers, dressed in festive costumes, gathered at the village gate and square, unfolding a celebration that lasted about an hour. With songs and dances, the sound of the sheng, and the fragrance of wine, Langde Miao Village showcased its most vivid and enthusiastic side at that moment. However, as the curtain of the celebration slowly fell, everything returned to tranquility. Villagers either embroidered delicately indoors or chatted leisurely under the shade of trees. This desirable leisure and freedom naturally flowed in Langde Miao Village every day. In 2008, the footprints of the Olympic flame left a warm mark on this land, making Langde Miao Village a place of unique honor. The stilted buildings, wind and rain bridges, and the simple folk customs passed down through generations together constructed the glorious chapter of this "Chinese Traditional Village." Visiting Langde, you don't have to worry about excessive commercialization disturbing your journey. The ticket is only 50 yuan, with a half-price discount during the summer, allowing you to appreciate this ancient beauty for just 25 yuan. From the ticket office, you can take a 5-yuan shuttle bus to easily reach Langde Shangzhai and start your exploration journey. Here, the time for playing seems to lose its boundaries. Two to three hours are enough to immerse yourself in this tranquility and beauty. Of course, if you wish, you can also choose to stay overnight, allowing your soul to be more deeply cleansed. 📷📷📷📷 Taking photos as a souvenir is an indispensable part of travel. Langde Miao Village has not been overly developed, and the degree of commercialization is relatively low. You may not find professional photo services, but a few small shops selling silver jewelry and tie-dye bags add a unique charm to your photos. Renting Miao costumes, doing your own makeup, and capturing those touching moments will make the beauty of Langde Miao Village an eternal memory. As for transportation, whether you fly to Guiyang Airport and then transfer to the high-speed train to Kaili, take a train directly to Kaili South Station, or take a bus from Kaili Bus Station to Leishan and get off at Langde, you can easily reach this dreamland.

No more crowds during holidays🚶🏻‍♀️🚶🏻‍♀️🚶🏻‍♀️🚶🏻‍♀️ Langde Miao Village is a truly original Miao village. Although it is somewhat commercialized, it is a good place to recharge yourself. Daily 💵50 Those born in the Year of the Dragon can enter the park for free.

Although Guizhou's niche Miao villages are not as spectacular as the Thousand Household Miao Village, this one is still quite primitive. The ticket price is 50, and currently, residents from Guangdong and Hangzhou, among others, can enter for free. It's suitable for a leisurely visit. There are Miao ethnic performances here, as well as customs like the welcoming block-the-door wine, but it's a pity that sometimes the timing isn't right, and I missed them. There are many activities in May, including academic research, building stilted houses, and even long-table banquets at night.
