This route, you can choose a few horseback riding, you can forget the schedule to go which counts where, but also can not be in accordance with the routine, the rate of the car shuttle, depending on how your mood, briefly said that the following points of interest:
High-speed rail and high-speed absolutely save the Qiandongnan travel, the long mountain road compressed into a Straight line, time is greatly saved, and the safety factor is also greatly improved, the place surrounded by mountains, uncontrollable natural disaster factors are too many, although the outdoor walking is a little bit adventurous, but by no means headless to find a crime.
Even so, if the time is free, there is to miss the rainy season in June-August, I was in a chartered car to go to remote villages, encountered landslides, fortunately, but the situation was still quite hanging thumping heart, but fortunately, to see a different Miao and Dong style, not a vain trip.
Some tourists go to Qiandongnan, the first stop choose to go straight to Xijiang, this Qiandongnan is currently the most mature development of the thousands of Miao village, do not get my favor. In China, it seems that as long as the tourism industry is developed to a certain extent, there is bound to be homogenization, always can not get rid of the Lijiang Fan, the original features, are bara off thrown into the taste of chicken ribs show field. So I recommend:
First stop: Zhaoxing Thousand Households Dongzhai
Also developed, not yet mature, convenient tourist facilities, can let you better enjoy the Dongzhai, better listen to the song. According to your starting place, check the high speed railroad line to Congjiang High Speed Railway Station, which is 8 kilometers away from Zhaoxing.
The five drum towers of "benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom and faith" are definitely the appetizers for you to enter Qiandongnan, especially when you come across the blue sky and white clouds, and laze around the drum towers.
The Wind and Rain Bridge is not only a regular feature of your camera, but also a place for locals to chat, so why not recline in the beauty of the bridge and enjoy the breeze like they do? A main street connects the commercial circle, and a street along the river enjoys the footstools.
Walking through the drum tower of Ren Tuan, keep moving forward, three sides of the green mountains wrapped in a field, if you are the idyllic school, it is here to spread the wild.
In the evening, there will be children driving ducks in the river. If you have herded ducks in your childhood, seeing this scene will definitely make you think.
If you like local handicrafts such as old embroidery pieces and batiks, we suggest you look for them in the alleys off the main street, and if you're lucky, you'll find one in a farmer's house that's not in use, even better. If you are traveling in Qiandongnan, you should be cautious about getting your hands on expensive handmade items in Zhaoxing.
Second stop: Zhaoxing Bazhai a mountain hiking
This hiking route can enjoy the fun of the outdoors, but there is not too much danger, as long as you insist on walking on the line, come to Zhaoxing, the vast majority of people chartered buses or hiking to Tang'an. To get grounded, it's better to walk this route.
Zhaoxing - Shangdiping - Zailiu - Laima, this way 12 kilometers or so, if the next, from Laima charter or hiking can return to Zhaoxing.
If you want to continue hiking, there are two ways to Zhaoxing in Laima. One along the highway, there are more than ten kilometers; a walk on the old road small mountain road, there are five kilometers, this hiking line, be sure to ask more on the road to meet the locals.
From the Li Tuan Drum Tower to the east, cross the bridge, turn right, walk about one hundred meters, the left side of the mountain path. It's best to ask people, they will be happy to show you the way. On the way from Zhaoxing to Shangdiping, there are about six kilometers. Along the way, cell phones are often out of signal, and the road is not available on Gaode and Baidu maps, so when you meet someone, be sure to have a chat and ask for directions.
Don't walk in summer just after the rain, in addition, there are a lot of mosquitoes, pay attention to wrap up, there are also snakes infested, depending on how lucky you are, don't forget to bring a hiking stick.
This all the way down, it is grounded.
Gabang terraces, depending on personal preferences to go, the essence of the season is the early May terraces irrigation and rice ripening at the end of September, if you have a penchant for hunting, in the by the way to see the last of a gunman tribe Long Horn Miao and magical change of flowers and grasses in Zhamli.
Third stop: Dimon-Dengcen, a paradise beyond the world
There are shuttle buses to Liping from the north gate of Zhaoxing, and the county town of Chiaojie is worth a stroll. An old street with Huizhou-style architecture, high at both ends and low in the middle, there is a Liping Conference Site and Two Lakes Meeting Hall inside, so you can take a stroll, and if you find it uninteresting, head to Dimeng as soon as possible.
DiMeng is known as the paradise of Qiandongnan, I think this sentence should be given to DengCen, the two cottages are about 500 meters away from each other. At this time the 308 provincial highway is under repair, all the way bumpy, when the car deviated from the provincial highway, turn the small road into the mountain, let the eyes enjoy it.
One twenty minutes to the ground Ammon, find a bed and breakfast first settled, and then wandering, must live in this. Take a walk through Dimeng, then walk the countryside to Dengcen, where you'll have a drink from the cedar springs, and the refreshing spring water will make you wow.
Here is definitely a paradise, but the vending machines here will give you the wrong impression, wrapped in the mountains of this piece of land, one after another, wind and rain bridges, and good luck to see the old man in the papermaking, and occasionally I do not know where to string a group of small dolls to follow the play together, the slow flow of water, terraced fields layer by layer, everything is slow, everything is peaceful,
If you do not have much luggage, first in the village to stroll around, in looking for accommodation. The nightlife in Dimon is rich, with Dong songs plus square dances that go on until 12am. Finding a quiet B&B and then spending a bit of money to put together a meal will also make it memorable.
Fourth stop: Dong village on both sides of the 308 provincial highway
This section of the 308 provincial highway from Liping to Rongjiang is definitely a golden travel line for the Dong village style. Now is repairing the road, is expected to be half a year before the whole line opened to traffic, wait until then, play not too cool.
Not far away from the ground Ammon said hole, this place rumors of "regeneration of human" stories, sounds a little creepy, but can not control the curiosity, refers to some children, they just can speak will be able to recognize their own family members in a previous life, sometimes will be called his son or daughter, and accurately say some of the decades before the slice of life.
Talking to the owner of the Zhaoxing Inn, a Han Chinese man who witnessed the incident and had a deep relationship with an old man from the Stated Cave, a few years after the old man's death, a child uttered the same words he and the old man used to say when they were drinking, and these words were known only to him and the old man.
Besides, the one-pillar drum tower in Su-dong is also waiting for you.
Zaidang and Gasho are the places to listen to Dong songs, first stroll Zaidang, the car from Fengdeng intersection to turn into, through Fengdeng, Zai stuffy, and then arrived, Zaidang still retains the drum tower of the Qianlong period, quite difficult, which may be thanks to the remoteness of the gift. The purpose of coming to Zaidang is basically to listen to big songs, the drum tower is the singing theater.
The night's lodging should be in Gashuo, where the Dong people have no written language, and their historical stories have been passed down from generation to generation through their great songs. There is a national intangible cultural heritage bearer of the Dong songs, a song master for the locals, who is still continuing the old ways.
In the evening at home, oral tradition teaches village children to sing Dong songs, along the way, you will hear all kinds of big songs, and here, the most heavenly music. Songs to nourish the heart, is the natural philosophy of life here.
If you understand the cultural background of Qiandongnan, you may have heard of "the old man protects the village, the ancient wood blessing the village", Dali Dong Village is a living proof. The ancient nanmu, which has been attacked by the years, is even more vigorous, and it is cooler than just walking under the tree. Only the belief that people can adhere to the ancient creed, can be passed on, the only thing left is true.
Also, Dali has five wind and rain bridges, comparable to Zhaoxing. There is also a courtyard of more than 200 years, if you want to go in to have a look, you must ask permission first and do not disturb the normal life of the owner. There is also a stone road dating back to the Qianlong era in the village, so take a stroll along the old road and open up your imagination.
Fifth stop: Danzhai
In Qiandongnan, Danzhai's tourism is relatively quiet, and visitors are rare, but it has been away from modern civilization, the old things to be able to preserve intact. It is often said that the Miao people wear their history on their bodies, and batik is the driving force behind this.
Danzhai county town of light written on Longquan Avenue, restaurant business is quite cold, barbecue is quite lively, every six days of the fair, is the highlight of Danzhai, look at the Miao people. The most lively here is the end of April and early May every year, Longquan Mountain is wrapped in hot azaleas, the sea of flowers to revel in spring when, but also to put up with too many people.
County near the village of Kara, because of the birdcage and fighting chicken meat reputation, I think this place can be completely ignored, the name does not live up to its name, very few people making birdcages very few people, selling birdcages and the market is no different.
The next step is to use Danzhai as a landing point, chartered tours.
Sixth stop: Pai Diao in search of batik
Pai Diao is recognized as the birthplace of batik, and in fact, several Miao villages around Pai Diao have batik traditions. The mountain road from Danzhai to Paiwu is really suspenseful, especially during the rainy season from June to August.
I was unlucky that it was cloudy when I left, and raining after I left until I came back. The road was interrupted by a landslide, and it would be a lie to say that I wasn't nervous when I watched rocks fly and roll down, almost hitting the car in front of me right next to it.
Today's row of touch is also fast becoming an empty village, the elderly stay behind, young people go out to work, but fortunately there are two batik production visit, gathered the village elderly, continue the blue dye production. Miao village built in the mid-level or on top of the mountain, the view of the beautiful environment, perennial clouds.
When chartering a bus, you may want to make a short stop at all the villages along the way to hang out.
Seventh stop: Hemp bird Jinji dance, send Long hundred birds clothes
Legend has it that the ancestors of the Miao people in the migration to the mountains of Guizhou on the way, encountered famine, a fall from the sky of the Jinji to send the seeds of grains, the people use this to farm to survive, and later the Miao women according to the Jinji feathers to make the skirt, and imitation of Jinji dance, and later formed a dynamic Jinji dance.
It's a bumpy ride to Mabo, so be prepared. The dance is seldom performed on a daily basis, so be sure to pick a festival, such as the Eating of the New Year Festival, before heading there.
Send Long is the hometown of the hundred bird clothes, the Miao bird worship here to the extreme, every family has a collection of gorgeous hundred bird clothes, in the agricultural leisure time, you can also see the walled village women to make, the process of the hundred bird clothes is extremely complicated, starting from hand-spun cloth, after dyeing, whacking, embroidery picking, edging feathers and so on, a hundred years of the production cycle of the clothes need to be in the unit of a year.
For Gao Yao terraces, mercury mine ruins, Pai Ting waterfalls depending on personal preferences to
Eighth stop: Shiqiao paper, Kerry rest
Shiqiao, due to intact preservation of the ancient method of papermaking, a business card of Danzhai, the tourism industry has not retained the papermaking here, in addition to the two symbolic production, tourism, and did not bring the whole of the protection of this place, I had originally reserved three days! time here to observe the paper making, the results stayed for three hours and left.
Paper Street is cold, still worth a look, there is a workshop year-round production, you can go inside to observe, and even experience a hand. Out of the paper street, met a paper maker is repairing tools, to his home to sit, see the reality of papier-maché windows, chatting learned that the paper industry is difficult to sustain.
The wind and rain bridge facing the street was destroyed in last year's flood, and a large number of ancient papermaking relics at the foot of the Danyan were washed away by floodwaters, and now the foot of the Danyan is being constructed to protect the embankment, and, in general, the Shibashi papermaking is worth a short stay.
Leaving Shiqiao, go to Kaili, the seat of Qiandongnan Prefecture, good food and drink, give yourself a relaxation.
Ninth stop: Kaili as the center, the surrounding Xijiang, Langde, Maitang, Qingman, Shidong free travel
In Kaili, to the Museum of Ethnicity, briefly add some knowledge. Go to Dongmen Street, Ximen Street, a shopping mall to see the local bazaar. Daxue is modern city life, Daxue next to the cattle field dam night market is very lively, it is worth coming to feel the night life. Xijiang big name such as thunder, almost become synonymous with the Miao village, spread all over the hillside of the footstools, luxury night view of the distance, north and south of the tourists, so that here has become a real Xijiang, rather than the Miao townships, individuals do not have too much of a good feeling of Xijiang. Yesterday's Langde, is today's Xijiang, today's Langde some lonesome, but it is also so, by mistake, retained a beautiful scenery, food and housing perfect Miao village, the villagers here from the bottom of the heart to accept tourists.
Matang, for national travelers is extremely strange place, but for the foreigners to Guizhou is familiar, 56 nationalities outside of the Ge family in this accumulation, claiming to be the sun god Hou Yi's descendants, unique headdress, batik exquisite, and fossilized seashells, if the villagers and the chat, there is always a little bit of the foreigners like this Qingman, with the boat creek tourism development, the Qingman has also entered the public! With the development of tourism in Zhouxi, Qingman has also entered the public's field of vision. Women with Japanese-style hair buns sit in front of the window and weave exquisite patterns on looms, also known as brocade, which is as beautiful as embroidery, and the local legend says, "Embroidery requires patience, and brocade requires cleverness". Shidong, general scenery, excellent craftsmanship, there is a good legacy of festival folklore, dragon head silver hairpin and various embroidery pieces are the characteristics of this place, if you love folk handicrafts, you may want to come here to get a better understanding.
The tenth station: Zhenyuan, Qiandongnan suitable for daze place
Zhenyuan, the Yuan and Ming Dynasties, the military pass, "want to pass the clouds and Guizhou, the first to guard Zhenyuan," the pink wall of tile horse head wall of the Huizhou style architecture, was the old Huizhou merchants living in this Huaixiang, but also nowadays a good background of the long gun crackling, meandering The meandering Maoyang River was once the lifeline linking the Central Plains and the Yunnan-Chu area, and is now the aphrodisiac for young men and women's encounters along the banks.
The Jiangnan courtyard around the corner may make you mistake another country for your hometown, when you are clearly on the edge of the Miao and Dong villages. Come here, no longer need to trek through the mountains and water to walk through the village, just walk along the Maoyang River and get lost in the old houses in the old alleys lined with horse heads.
At night, the colorful lights of Zhu Sheng Bridge are enough to make you dizzy, and don't forget to savor the couplets on the Kuixing Pavilion:
Sweeping away the smoke from the five streams, Han made the floating rubbing rubbing his head
Splitting the heavens and re-posting the stagecoach road, the Burmese people rode elephants across the bridge
Only when history is precipitated into the daily life can it emit a lasting mellow and long-lasting aroma that will make you float in the air.
In Zhenyuan, you will be able to enjoy the beauty of Qiandongnan, and Xiangxi is waiting for you
