Here is the ultimate guide to the world's largest Miao settlement in Guizhou

🏯 Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village, the world's largest Miao settlement‼️ Located in Leishan County, Qiandongnan Prefecture, Guizhou, more than a thousand wooden stilted buildings are built along the mountainside, presenting a spectacular view. Many people say it's too commercialized, but it's also the place where the ancient Miao culture is best preserved. The contradiction between commercial convenience and original ecology is always there. In fact, if you avoid holidays and crowds, the experience and cost-effectiveness are still pretty good✅ 💙Travel Tips: Qianhu Miao Village has two entrances, the west gate is on the mountain, and the north gate is at the foot of the mountain, where you can experience the highest Miao etiquette of twelve courses of blocking wine✅ 🔷Due to the terrain in Guizhou, it's normal to go up and down. A river runs through the entire village, connected by a wind and rain bridge. If you're short on time, it's more appropriate to play along the river. If you have good physical strength and plenty of time, the various alleys in the village are the essence✅ 🌟Recommended spots: 1️⃣Wind and Rain Bridges, there are a total of seven wind and rain bridges in Xijiang Miao Village, among which No. 1, No. 3, and No. 5 wind and rain bridges are popular check-in spots✅ 2️⃣Viewing platform, where you can take panoramic photos of the Miao Village, especially beautiful at night. It's recommended to bring a professional camera, as the effect on a phone is quite average✅ 3️⃣Terraced fields and nearby rural scenery, spring's rapeseed flowers, summer's green wheat, children playing by the river, and barbecues set up directly in the middle of the river✅ 4️⃣Ancient Street, the main street running through the Miao Village, lined with shops, Miao family museums, and most performances take place on this street✅ 5️⃣Ga Ge Ancient Alley, in Miao language means a small alley in the Miao Village, with live cultural displays such as ancient song singing, love song duets, Miao embroidery heritage sites, silver jewelry making, rice wine brewing, etc. Walking into the ancient alley with an oil-paper umbrella makes for especially good photos✅ 6️⃣Renting ethnic costumes for photos is also a must-do for the ladies. It's possible to shop around and bargain✅ 🍱Food: Sour soup fish, bamboo tube rice and glutinous rice, handmade rice cakes, potato cakes, black pork skewers, pickled spicy fish, farmhouse tofu, specialty smoked sausages and smoked meat, and roasted pig's feet, etc.✅ 🎫Ticket: 110 yuan💰 (including 4 electric car rides within the scenic area) More than 4 times is 5 yuan/ride✅ 🚇Public Transport: Take the high-speed train or train🚞 to Kaili South Station, next to which there is a bus station that can take you directly to Xijiang Miao Village Scenic Area✅ 🏠Accommodation: There are various options in the Miao Village during the off-season, and the cost-effectiveness is also very high. Everyone can choose according to their needs✅ ⚠️Due to work, I have lived in Guiyang for a few years and have been to the Miao Village 3️⃣ times, with pictures from both spring and summer. Personally, I think it's worth a visit and suitable for a leisurely tour😀
