    Fanjingshan, a five-star scenic area in Guizhou. Its unique scenery is awe-inspiring, showcasing the wonders of nature. The hiking trails to the Red Cloud Golden Summit are thrilling and fun. Unfortunately, the mountain was shrouded in mist, and nothing could be seen. I'm sure it would be beautiful on a clear day.

    It's worth a visit. After all, it's a national-level building. Yes, let me tell you about Aizhai. The Aizhai Bridge scenic area has a glass plank walkway, but it's not very interesting. Half a day is enough for Aizhai Bridge. The official itinerary is difficult to understand. The Aizhai Miao village of Dehang below is interesting and worth a visit. Jidou Miao Village is simple and authentic. The service at Aizhai Bridge is average, directions are difficult, and communication is difficult. I took a lot of photos at Aizhai Bridge, but there's actually a fee later.

    The ancient town is simple in style, the price of food and accommodation is not high, the attractions are nearby, just a walk away, and you can enjoy the three provincial food in a circle. It is worth seeing. In particular, you have to sit and cross the river, shake, shake, and transition from Hunan to Chongqing in a few minutes.

    Hong Kong and Macau residents cannot use QR codes for entry; they need to exchange them for physical tickets at the local ticket office. The ticket includes four sightseeing bus rides (at least two will be needed, as the first ride from the entrance gate is from "West Gate" to "Changxiao Station," and the second ride is from "Changxiao" to "Viewing Platform No. 1" or to the last stop, "Wind and Rain Bridge No. 1"). This attraction is definitely worth a visit 🤣; you could easily spend more than two days there.

    The stockade is not big, you can finish shopping in half a day, in addition to taking pictures, you can also experience non-legacy batik, eat sauerkraut fish, beef noodles, glutinous rice bun barbecue, there is a welcome ceremony at the gate of Dongzhai at 10 am and 4 pm every day, and the evening bonfire party is also worth seeing. There are Dai dances and Dai songs. I went in winter and sent a bowl of delicious and beautiful Dongzhai oil tea, and the special refrigerator sticker is a small and exquisite silver jewelry, so look good

    Hidden in the depths of the mountains, Chengyang Bazhai is like a classical ink painting. This is a typical Yi village with well-preserved Yi architecture and rich folk customs. Walking through Yang Bazhai, you can appreciate the simple hanging tower, the spectacular drum tower group and the unique Yi culture, which makes people seem to travel through time and space and return to that distant era.

    Furongzhen is worth a visit, but it’s quite a small area and can be covered within a few hours. Lights come on at 5.30pm, so be sure to find a good dining spot to view the scenery while you eat. Be ready to walk and climb stairs if you wish to locate hidden photo spots.
