Maliuxi Dongzhai, Enshi Xianfeng County, Hubei, is a village with 365 households and more than 1,200 people, and is the only Yi people in central China, known as the "Jingchu First Dongzhai". Not only is it beautiful, but also has a pleasant climate, surrounded by clouds and mist all year round, like a fairyland on earth, and is known as the "last Shangri-La in central China". For hundreds of years, the villagers of Maliuxi have lived a life of indisputable and peaceful peace. Those built on the mountain, scattered hanging buildings, also become their place to live for generations. It is worth mentioning that the 318 hanging buildings in the village now combine the architectural characteristics of Tujia, Miaojia and Yi people, forming a unique hanging building style. These unique hanging towers, with the accumulated years of dusty waterwheels, water rafts, wind and rain bridge and the tower, constitute a natural picture. Stay here for one night, sleep upstairs, listen to the sound of the stream and insects downstairs, smell the fragrance of the grass and trees floating in the mountains and forests, it will definitely make you dream. Tea trees, everywhere in the Maliu Creek, whether it is hillside or stream, in front of the house or in the field, are all green tea gardens. The vast majority of the villagers here live by growing tea, and everyone loves to drink tea, and tea has a deep complex, and in the local folk has always circulated the saying "a cup of tea in the morning and evening, you have to live 88; the incense tea does not leave your hands, live to 99". Every year from April to August, tea picking becomes the daily work of local villagers. It is so-called that drinking tea is easy to pick tea. Every morning, tea farmers step on the dew to pick fresh sprouts in person, and when the sun shines on the whole tea garden, the sprouts have already been filled with tea, and the fresh leaves picked in the morning will be made and processed on the same day, and there will be no delay for a moment. In 2012, Maliuxi Village built the first organic tea production base in the county, developing more than 100 hectares of organic tea, and becoming a demonstration point for leisure agriculture and rural tourism in the country. With the further improvement of the ecological environment, Maliuxi, known as "world wonderland" and "world paradise", received a top national business card in 2014: "China's most beautiful countryside". The development of tourism has also led to the rise of the catering industry, which has become the third largest industry in the village.
