The mysterious "Eastern Indians" in the ancient village in the deep mountains of Guizhou

Unexpectedly, it's 2024, and I can still see such an ancient village in the deep mountains of Libo, Guizhou, which is not commercialized, primitive and simple, which is really surprising! - 📍Yao Mountain Ancient Village 🚅Take the high-speed train to "Libo" station, and then take a taxi for 20 minutes to get there. - Bai Jingting and Xie Tingfeng have both checked in here. It is only 5km away from Libo Xiaoqikong, which is the main settlement of the White Pants Yao. The natural village is well preserved and is known as the "Eastern Indians". It still retains the ancient matriarchal clan system. The customs and customs of the Yao people are fully displayed here. Men wear "white pants" and women wear "two-piece Yao". Villagers wearing Yao ethnic costumes can be seen everywhere in the ancient village. At some special festival times, the Yao people will welcome guests with the highest etiquette of "firing guns" and "blocking door wine". - 🏚In the ancient village, you can also see the iconic historical ancient building, the grain barn, which is supported by four pillars, with wooden boards on the upper layer, and the round grain warehouse below. The bottom of the round warehouse is supported by four wooden pillars at equal distances, and the middle is separated by pottery jars, which can prevent rats and keep the grain from getting damp and mildew. The grain barn is a good place for Yao children to play and women to work and chat. - 🗿Tour ✅You can experience Yao embroidery, handmade pottery, Yao sticky paste dyeing, etc. ✅Intangible cultural heritage visit: spinning top workshop, sticky paste workshop, decoction workshop. ✅"Yao Mountain·Yao People" large-scale live performance and bonfire party, including fire gun dance, monkey drum dance, bronze drum dance, fire dance Yao Mountain. - 🛌About accommodation For those who like quiet, you can stay here for two days. We stayed in the "Yaochi·Xiaoqikong Homestay" in Yao Mountain Ancient Village this time. 🏞When you have nothing to do, you can cook tea with friends in the countryside. The floor-to-ceiling glass in the room can see the strange and continuous hills not far away. The clouds and mist in the early morning are like a fairyland. 🛁There is also a large bath in the room, where you can directly experience one of the three major bathing cultures in the world, Yao bath, in the room. The raw material is the Yao medicine made in the decoction workshop. You can enjoy the scenery outside the window while bathing, which is really comfortable.
