The Night Pearl on the Peak of Yunnan and Guizhou —— Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village

? Just left the Millennium Dong Village and came to Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village, where Miao people gather. A place where Miao's "primitive ecology" culture is completely preserved, with more than 10 natural villages built on the mountain connected together, terraced fields leading to the sky along the mountain, and the crystal clear Baishui River passing through the village. It is the largest Miao village in China and even in the world.

? Xijiang Miao Village is simple and elegant. She lay quietly on the edge of time and let the years polish.

? Miao village is beautiful, enviable, within reach, and the blue sky and white clouds seem within reach; Bow your head and have a panoramic view of the lush canyon; Looking from a distance, there are rows of Miao folk houses with white walls and blue bricks; Close look, patchwork terraced fields, close look, rape flowers swaying with the wind, far look, winding rivers around the city, steep winding Panshan highway, misty mist between canyons, all flooded into our eyes, not enough. The terraced fields, Miao villages, mountain roads and rivers under the bridge constitute a beautiful landscape picture.

Qianhu Miao village

? Xijiang River is located in the southeast of Kaili City, Guizhou Province, and turns to the northeast from Leishan intersection. It is the largest Miao village around Kaili, with about 1 000 households, so it is called "Thousand Miao Village".

There is still a distance from the gate to Miao Village, and you need to take the scenic spot sightseeing bus to get there. It takes about 40 minutes from the gate to the hotel. You can take two buses and walk 400 meters. The suitcase is better. Come and enjoy the beautiful scenery of Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village ~

A wooden/bamboo house supported by wooden supports, with ladders extending upward.

? A major feature of Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village is the design of Diaojiao Building. The diaojiao building has three floors, the base is made of bluestone and pebbles, the first floor is livestock, the second floor is people, and the third floor is granary.

? There is a long corridor upstairs, surrounded by wooden fences and benches, where Miao girls often pick flowers and embroider. People call the wooden benches in the promenade "beauty depend". The Miao villages are connected by Qingshi Road, with maple trees in the forest and maple fragrance overflowing.

? Miao architecture in Qianhu Miao Village of Xijiang River is mainly wooden diaojiao building, which is a bucket structure leaning on the top of the mountain. It is divided into two types: flat diaojiao building and inclined diaojiao building, which are generally three-story, four-room, three-room or five-room structures. The ground floor is used for storing production tools, raising poultry and livestock, storing fertilizer or using it as a toilet. The second floor is used as living room, hall, bedroom and kitchen. There is a unique "Meixie" outside the main hall, which is called "Buxie" in Miao language. Mainly used for cooling, embroidery and rest, it is a major feature of Miao architecture. The third floor is mainly used to store food, feed and other production and living materials.

Xijiang Miao people's diaojiao building originated from the southern ganlan building of ancient residents. It adopts multiple structural combinations such as rectangle, triangle and diamond to form a three-dimensional network system, which is harmonious and unified with the surrounding green mountains, green waters and pastoral scenery, bringing out the best in each other. It is a living fossil of ancient residential buildings in China. It has high aesthetic value in architecture and other aspects. Under the present situation of China with a large population and a small land, it is of positive educational significance to reflect the national psychology of Miao residents in cherishing and saving land. Shangliang's congratulatory speech and the song of Li Shi are full of Miao religious culture. It is an important carrier of Miao traditional culture.

Thousand lights at night

? When the sun sets, choose a diaojiao building, climb to a high place, gently lean on the "beauty" and watch Miao Village go from sunset to the beginning of the lights. As night falls, thousands of families here will light the lights under the eaves as promised. At this time, climbing the observation deck is another scenery, which will show the strength of a thousand miles a day. The stockade has quietly disappeared in the night, but the bright yellow lights are as bright and romantic as stars. Seen from a distance, the lamp is shaped like a horn. Because of the unique geographical location of the inn, lying in the hotel watching the night scene is the most beautiful thing in life.

Goodbye Qianhu Miao Village

Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village itself is a museum, an open-air museum, showing the development history and culture of Miao nationality. Today, I was lucky enough to take my children to visit the Miao Village Museum to learn about the history and culture of Miao Village. The ethnic groups and customs that existed in the Yu Shun period were more interesting and rich. Qianhu Miao Village is suitable for walking slowly, relaxing, slowing down and finding your favorite corner. Because travel belongs to you, you don't need to follow others' footsteps. Being good at discovering beauty and knowing what you want is what a trip should look like. Tired and happy, like drinking a pot of old wine, sweet and mellow.
