Dongxiang brocade, Miao clothing with ancient charm and new chapter: Liping, where the Miao ethnic group lives in the embrace of the Dongxiang, Miao clothing writes a different legend here. It adheres to the traditional roots of Miao clothing. The pleated skirt is lively and the collar and cuffs are still exquisite. It also cleverly absorbs the delicate needlework of Dong embroidery, making flowers, birds, fish and insects vivid and lively between the sleeves, combining hardness and softness, injecting new vitality into the ancient Miao clothing.

Travel | Huanggang Dong Village.

Travel | Huanggang Dong Village.

|Huanggang Dong Village. Travel | Huanggang Dong Village I went to Guizhou for a trip in October. In addition to the beautiful scenery, Guizhou is also rich in culture. Qiandongnan is home to 33 ethnic groups, including the Miao, Dong, Han, Buyi, Shui, Yao, Zhuang, and Tujia. The ethnic minority culture is extremely rich, and the Dong villages are particularly distinctive. Huanggang Village is located on a mountain at an altitude of more than 800 meters, with two small streams crossing the village. "Huanggang has mountains and water, and the hills rise to the ground like a golden basin, making it a treasure land." Therefore, the ancestors of the Dong people migrated here thousands of years ago. There are five drum towers, a flower bridge, a theater stage, and four ancient pines in the village. The rice drying racks are arranged in an orderly manner on the edge of the village, surrounding the village. In September, during the rice harvest season, the layers of rice drying racks become golden barriers, which is the origin of the name of Huanggang Village. It is also said that nine years after the village was built, there was a warrior named Gang in the village, who was very powerful, and people called him "King", so the village was named "Wanggang" in Chinese, which is pronounced as "Huanggang" in Chinese. Huanggang Village is rich in customs, with ancient folk customs and simple folk customs. It is the birthplace of the male Dong songs and is known as the "Hometown of Male Dong Songs". In Huanggang, you can hear songs every day. People sing all year round, compare songs during festivals, drink and toast with songs, sing songs to block the road when getting married, and use songs to express love. Songs are the most important part of the lives of the people in Huanggang. Everyone, regardless of age or gender, can sing Dong songs. Huanggang is also a reserve for the Dong "rice-fish-duck" farming culture and is a "living fossil" of the original Dong culture. It still preserves and continues the traditional Dong production and living customs that have been passed down for thousands of years. It is known as the most ancient, traditional, and well-preserved Dong village in the development process of Dong society. The Dong people here work at sunrise, wash rice by the stream, sing and sit under the moon, and live a leisurely life. Drum Tower: There is a big drum on the top floor, which is controlled by the natural leader of the clan. In the event of a major event, the leader climbs up to beat the drum, which is used to summon the clan and to send messages to neighboring villages for reinforcements.

Zhaoxing Dong Village Travel Guide|||

|||. Guangzhou South-From Jiang 194 💰 Zhaoxing Dong Village ticket 80 yuan💰(I got half price 40 yuan in June, free for Guangzhou) 🚄: Take the high-speed train from Guangzhou South to From Jiang. When I arrived at From Jiang station, the folk boss picked me up to the homestay. If there is no pick-up service, you can take the Zhaoxing Dong Village minibus to the scenic area by yourself. It's 10 yuan. The driver will stop and let you go to the ticket hall to buy the entrance ticket. After checking the ticket, you can go in. 🍚Recommended specialty food: Roasted fragrant pork 10 yuan for 6 skewers. I basically have to come for 50 yuan of fragrant pork every day. It's too delicious. I think the others are average and not recommended. It was June, the season for eating bayberries. I will buy it every day. It's really cheap and delicious for 5 yuan a bag. Zhaoxing Dong Village is very small, and you can finish shopping in half a day. I booked a 3-day stay, so I was always on the road to eating fragrant pork. I was wandering around in the village every day after waking up. And being alone will indeed be a bit boring. In the afternoon or evening, the old people in the village will sit on the wind and rain bridge to escape the heat or chat. Most of them are wearing Dong costumes. You can take a lot of ethnic minority humanistic photos. Friends who like ethnic minority culture can go. If you only stay for one day, go to Tang'an Dong Village after visiting Dong Village. Just one day😌

Xiage Dong Village is definitely worth a visit, it's so beautiful!!

Xiage Dong Village is definitely worth a visit, it's so beautiful!!

🔍【Must-Visit Attractions】🔍 Hidden in the depths of Qiandongnan in Guizhou, Xiage Dong Village unfolds like an ancient scroll, waiting for every traveler to explore. As you step into the village gate, it's as if you've traveled back to a tranquil time a thousand years ago. The first must-visit spot is the 【Drum Tower】, a wooden structure that is not only a symbolic icon of the Dong villages but also the center for the Dong people to gather, discuss affairs, and celebrate festivals. Its exquisite mortise and tenon structure, which requires not a single nail or iron, is truly breathtaking. Afterwards, take a leisurely walk to the 【Wind and Rain Bridge】, which serves not only as a vital transportation link between the two banks but also carries the Dong people's beautiful wishes for life. At night, don't miss out on participating in an authentic 【Dong Grand Song】 performance, where the unaccompanied polyphonic singing, like the sound of nature, strikes directly at the heart. 📍【Detailed Address】📍 Xiage Dong Village is located deep within the Qiandongnan Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture in Guizhou Province, China. The specific location should be inquired locally or pinpointed using navigation software for the nearest entrance. As the Dong villages are quite scattered, it is recommended to contact a local guide for a deeper exploration. 🚗【Transportation Tips】🚗 Departing from Kaili City, the most convenient way is to rent a car and drive yourself, with beautiful scenery along the way, taking about 2-3 hours. If opting for public transportation, you can first take a long-distance bus to the nearest town, then transfer to a local minibus or hire a car to enter the village. It is advisable to plan your trip in advance, especially to note the last bus time. 🍴【Food Recommendations】🍴 The Dong's culinary culture is a taste feast not to be missed on this trip. 【Sour Soup Fish】 is a must-try local delicacy, made with local river fish and a special sour soup, sour and spicy, warming both the stomach and the heart. 【Cured Meat】 and 【Glutinous Rice Wine】 are also rare delicacies, with the cured meat being fragrant but not greasy, and the glutinous rice wine sweet with a hint of richness, sharing with friends brings a unique flavor. 🏞️【Nearby Attractions Recommendations】🏞️ After exploring Xiage Dong Village, you might want to continue your journey through Qiandongnan: 1. Zhaoxing Dong Village - As the world's largest Dong village, it is not far away and has even more spectacular Drum Tower complexes and rich ethnic cultural activities. 2. Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village - Turn to the treasure land of Miao culture, experience the charm of Miao stilted houses, and the lights of a thousand households under the night sky are captivating. 3. Jiabang Rice Terraces - If the season is right, drive to Jiabang Rice Terraces, where the layers of green waves and the mountains shrouded in clouds and mist will surely keep your camera shutter busy. Every step in Xiage Dong Village is a purification of the soul, a dialogue with ancient civilization. Bring your camera, bring a heart full of curiosity, and let this trip become the most precious chapter in your memory.

Ethnic Minority Village - Huanggang Dong Village

Ethnic Minority Village - Huanggang Dong Village

The specialty of Dong Village, the paddy field fish, is unique. During the spring rice planting season, fish are released into the fields. The fish eat the pests in the rice, and are also fattened up, truly admirable for the wisdom of the working people. However, these paddy field fish can only be eaten during the autumn harvest season. There are also local restaurants in the village for dining at ordinary times. Sour soup beef, free-range chicken hotpot, stir-fried dishes, barbecue, and noodles are all readily available. 🏠 For accommodation, there are not many inns, but there are homestays and hotels. I stayed at the same place in 2019 and this time, because there was no other choice. When there are many tourists, even finding a place to stay can be a problem. This is also a downside of being unspoiled, as commercial facilities are not well-developed. There is no need for any admission ticket here. Parking is also completely free. There is an observation deck on the mountain where you can see the whole view of Dong Village. It's not high, but the scenery is very nice and definitely worth a climb. Go up from the first drum tower next to the road on the east side, and along the way, you will see many small holes blocked by wooden boards in the ground. Those are used by villagers to store sweet potatoes.

Zhaoxing Dong Village|Simple folk customs

Zhaoxing Dong Village|Simple folk customs

|Simple folk customs. A good place to go for a three-day and two-night trip from Guangzhou, with a guide. Departing one week before the Dragon Boat Festival to avoid the peak, just after Children's Day~ Took a day off, three days in total with the weekend Dusty Corner Cloud Mountain Retreat Located near the end of the village, the environment is relatively quiet. The road to the guesthouse requires climbing a short but steep staircase and path. The owner is from Guangdong, very helpful with luggage, and there is even a high-speed train pick-up service~ Most of the houses here are wooden buildings, and indeed the sound insulation is not great. The front desk on the first floor provides earplugs for sound insulation and reminds guests to walk lightly during rest hours at night. The most surprising thing is that the rooms provide disposable toilet seat covers, bath towels, and even a four-piece set! The view outside the window is also very good. If you don't mind the sound insulation issue, this place is quite cost-effective~
