Guizhou Summer Exclusive: Ancient Villages Accessible by High-Speed Rail for a Cool Escape

⛰️Where to beat the heat in Guizhou? Escape the city and head to Wujiang Village, where you'll instantly fall in love with its mountains, waters, and waterfalls. Wondering how to explore the scenic area? This guide has got you covered! · Daytime Cool-Off Activities👇 ▫️Boat Ride on Wujiang River: Glide on bamboo rafts through shimmering waves, with stilt houses reflecting on the water and a white pagoda standing atop the mountain. The winding waterways around Huilong Island often see egrets skimming the surface, stirring ripples before vanishing into the morning mist. ▫️Intangible Cultural Heritage Alley: In this ancient village, try your hand at bamboo weaving or lantern-making to create lasting memories. ▫️Must-Try Foods: Sour fish soup and lamb rice noodles—tangy and spicy flavors that awaken the appetite. One bite, and you’re in heaven. As wooden spoons stir the sour soup, fishing lights gradually dot the river, and lanterns from the stilt houses light up one by one, as if wrapping Wujiang in a golden belt. · Nighttime Festivities Begin👇 ✔️Bonfire Festival: Immerse yourself in the ethnic culture of Southwest China with performances and dances from eight ethnic groups, followed by a lively bonfire party. ✔️Drone Light Show: Hundreds of drones light up the night sky over Huilong Bay, creating dreamy constellations and tribal patterns. · Travel Tips🚘 🔸Transport: Take the high-speed rail to Zunyi South Station, then a 40-minute taxi ride to the scenic area. 🔸Essentials: Sunscreen and mosquito repellent for summer outdoor activities. · Accommodation Recommendation:📍Zhulan Water Village 💛Unique Design: Bamboo-themed, tranquil, and cool—perfect for summer. 🩵Prime Location: Stay right in the scenic area for convenience, with views of Wujiang’s emerald waters and stilt houses framed by lush mountains. 🤍Booking: Secure summer discounts in advance on 🐬 to ensure a smooth stay. · 🏮Wujiang Village—the ideal summer retreat, as if stealing a slice of paradise. Bring an indigo-dyed coat to shield from the sun by day and dew by night. When you twirl at the bonfire party, your fluttering sleeves will make you feel like a figure stepping out of a painting.
