1.Thousand Miao Villages Xijiang The Thousand Miao Villages Xijiang, as an important reserve of the primitive culture of the Miao ethnic group, is about 260 kilometers from Guiyang (贵阳) municipality and is composed of 10 natural villages built along the mountain. It boasts the biggest compact village of the Miao in China. The wooden houses are built along the mountain, so they are imposing when seen from afar, especially at night when every house has turned on its lights creating an enchanted scene similar to stars in the sky.
Lying nearby is the Silversmith Village where all the silver ornaments of the Miao are made by hand, displaying excellent craftsmanship.
When wandering in Miao villages, everything appears quite beautiful with its own charms, such as the old stone street, serene alleys, houses built along the mountain, the babbling water in the crystal river and Miao girls singing on the Wind-Rain Bridge.
