Zhaoxing Dong Village is mostly made up of wooden buildings with blue tiles and hanging corners. They are lined up in a dense and orderly manner, simple and quiet, reflecting the characteristics of traditional Dong architecture! It is not commercialized and maintains its original ecological ancient village. It is worth a visit.
Highlights and characteristics 1. The soul of Dongzhai in the Gulou Group The symbol of Dongzhai in Zhaoxing is "Five Tuan Wu Drum Tower", that is, there is a drum tower in each of the five family settlements. The drum tower is shaped like a pagoda, and the layers of moths are built with a structure of scorpions. It is an architectural miracle without a nail. When the lights are on at night, the Drum Tower is reflected in the stream, like a fantasy. Among them, the Ren Tuan Drum Tower and the Yi Tuan Drum Tower are the most exquisite, and they are the core landmarks for taking pictures and punching in. 2. Fengyu Bridge and Yi Life Aesthetics There are several wind and rain bridges (flower bridges) in the village across the stream, and the bridge is painted with Yi legendary patterns. Locals often rest, embroider and chat under the bridge corridor, which is a great place to observe the daily life of the Yi people. The fireworks around the Zhituan Huaqiao are the strongest, and there are often elderly people playing and singing Yi people's songs in the evening. 3. Original ecological folk experience - Dai song: there are free singing and dancing performances in the village every day (in the performance venue), and the multi-vocal unaccompanied chorus is like a sky, which is included in the "human intangible cultural heritage". - Feast: If you catch up with the "Guyu Festival" (water splashing carnival), leap year or "eat new festival", you can experience traditional activities such as long table banquets, sacrificial rituals. - Craft heritage: Bataclan, cloth workshop open experience, hand-made blue dyed cloth or silver jewelry is a good commemoration. 4. Terraces and hiking secrets The village is backed by green hills and adjacent to Tang'an Terraces (one of the seven most beautiful hiking routes in China). In the morning, walk up the mountain along the stone road, and the terraces in the clouds and Tang'an Dong Village are like a fairyland. It takes about 3 hours to travel and is physically friendly. ---Dispute and shortcoming 1. Commercialization The main street has been occupied by inns, restaurants and specialty shops on both sides of the main street. The dense tourist concentration in peak season may affect the experience. It is recommended to avoid holidays, or go deep into the courtesy group and letter group area on the edge of the stockade, and feel the quiet family life. 2. Ticket and connection management Scenic ticket 80 yuan + sightseeing car 20 yuan (from the parking lot to the Zhaimen), self-driving cars can not drive into the core area. Some tourists think that the charge is slightly higher, but the management is relatively standardized and the sanitary conditions are good. 3. Accommodation experience differentiation Linhe Inn has beautiful scenery but high prices (300-600 yuan), and the homestays in the deep alley are more cost-effective (about 150-300 yuan), but the sound insulation is poor. It is recommended to choose a room with a wooden window of the family, and push the window to see the foggy mountain view in the morning. ---Summary: Who is suitable for? ✅ Humanities enthusiasts: Drum Tower architecture, hymn, sacrifice cultural immersive experience; ✅ Photography Party: Morning fog drum tower, terrace light and shadow, national costume portrait filming rate is high; ✅ Light hiking crowd: Tang'an-Zhaoxing hiking route is low difficult, suitable for all ages; ⚠️ those who pursue the ultimate tranquility: It is recommended to live in Tang'an Dongzhai (Zhaoxing Houshan), and go down the mountain in the morning to visit. One sentence comment: Zhaoxing Dongzhai is like a living Yi encyclopedia, although commercialization is inevitable, but as long as you avoid the crowds, go deep into the alley, you can still touch the pulse of the millennium Yi people ~ it may not be "perfect", but it is real enough.
