I've been to Guizhou many times, but this trip still shocked me. Tonggudang, Great Sage's Eye, Niudao Rock—these three names don't sound like typical tourist spots. So beautiful you can't take your eyes off them, my camera was on non-stop from the moment I opened it. Looking back at the photos, my friends all asked if I had been to another planet. 🏞 Tonggudang | Free Take a taxi directly here, no entrance fee, but a 10 RMB sanitation fee is required. The black stone forest looks like the skeleton of an ancient giant beast, with cattle and horses slowly grazing nearby. The wind passing through the stone cracks makes a low echoing sound. Standing there, you feel very small. Ps: Wear bright clothes and use a wide-angle lens, it looks very cool. 🐵 Great Sage's Eye | 6 RMB ticket 20 minutes by car from Tonggudang, then a half-hour hike on a wild trail. A skylight formed by a collapsed cave, with quiet green water below. When the water surface calms down, the reflection at the cave entrance clearly looks like the face of the Great Sage Equal to Heaven—I stared at it for a long time, nature is amazing. Ps: Go before noon for clear views, skip it if it’s raining. ⛰ Niudao Rock | Free Right next to Great Sage's Eye, just a few steps away. The waterfall at the cave entrance is deep blue, the sound of water is loud, and looking inside is pitch black, like an entrance to the earth’s core. After taking photos, I stood there for a while, feeling cool and refreshing. ⭕: I spent about half a day at these three places, wore non-slip shoes, and brought some water and snacks. 🙋‍♀️ For the remaining two days, I went to Huangguoshu and Xiaoqikong. Huangguoshu Waterfall 1.5 hours drive from Anshun, tickets 160 RMB + 50 RMB shuttle bus, book three days in advance. Right when it opened, I went to the lower half of Tianxing Bridge (many people only walk the upper half), the Silver Chain Pendant Waterfall there is really beautiful. Then I went to the big waterfall and walked through the Water Curtain Cave, the mist covered my face, very refreshing. Xiaoqikong in Libo 4 hours drive from Huangguoshu, you can spend a whole day there. Tickets plus shuttle bus cost about 120 RMB. Enter from the east gate and explore in reverse order: Wolong Pool, Mandarin Duck Lake boating, Cuigu Waterfall, Water Forest, Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge—mostly downhill, not tiring, and the water is truly blue. 🗓️ This trip’s itinerary: Anshun (Tonggudang → Great Sage's Eye → Niudao Rock) → Huangguoshu Waterfall → Libo Xiaoqikong ❤ Some tips: ◼ The three wild spots are free and undeveloped, remember to wear non-slip shoes. ◼ Don’t go to Great Sage's Eye on rainy days, the road is slippery and the reflection is unclear. ◼ Book tickets online in advance for Huangguoshu and Xiaoqikong to avoid wasted trips. After a few days, I’ve seen both wild and classic spots. This trip to Guizhou was worth it 🥰 Raise your hand if you want to go or have been there 🙋‍♀️, let’s chat together!

From late spring to early summer, it’s the perfect time to find a place among mountains and waters to calm a restless heart. No need to travel far—the high-speed rail network has closely connected these hidden gem towns. Here’s a recommended slow travel route linking the charm of Qiandongnan and Western Hunan. Just one weekend plus a day lets you immerse yourself in an ink-wash painting landscape and enjoy a leisurely holiday healed by nature and culture. First Stop: Zhenyuan · The “Taiji Ancient Town” by the Wuyang River “Spring waters are greener than the sky, listening to rain on a painted boat, I sleep.” — Wei Zhuang, “Bodhisattva Man” Upon arriving in Zhenyuan, the first sight is the jade-green Wuyang River, winding through the town in an “S” shape, naturally outlining a Taiji diagram. There are no overly noisy bars here, only old houses with blue bricks and black tiles built along the river. Be sure to take a night cruise on a painted boat to see the lanterns of ancient houses reflected in the flowing spring water, as if time ripples away with the waves. Stay at a riverside inn, and opening the window reveals the poetic scene of “as if in the middle of the water.” Second Stop: Libo · Falling into the Earth’s Emerald “After fresh rain in the empty mountains, the weather turns autumnal in the evening.” — Wang Wei, “Autumn Evening in the Mountains” Though it’s not autumn yet, Libo’s Xiaoqikong after spring rain feels even fresher. The 68-level waterfall cascades like a silver ribbon, and the Mandarins Lake’s emerald waves glisten. Boating here feels like sailing on transparent jade. The greens here are layered—from dark green to bright green, to the blue-black of the pools. Walking through, every view is a painting, and every step a refreshing cleanse. It’s a preview of a summer escape to a fairyland. Third Stop: Zhaoxing Dong Village · Firelight Moments under the Drum Towers Compared to other popular villages, Zhaoxing Dong Village retains a more rustic lifestyle. Five drum towers stand tall as the village’s soul. At dusk, sitting on the flower bridge watching locals chat, with smoke rising from cooking fires and the sound of flowing streams nearby, is a peaceful scene. If you catch a Dong folk song performance, the natural polyphonic singing sounds like heavenly music—a cultural shock beyond words. Fourth Stop: Langde Upper Village · The Miao Mountain Secret Realm at Peace with the World For a more authentic Miao experience, Langde is the top choice. No bustling shops, only winding bluestone paths and elders working in traditional clothing. The twelve-step gate-blocking wine ceremony is solemn and sincere, and the smiles of Miao girls are sweeter than rice wine. Here, time seems held by the mountains; a simple stroll brings rare peace to the soul. ✨ Suggested 3 Days 2 Nights Slow Itinerary · Day 1: Arrive by high-speed train → Zhenyuan Ancient Town, stay by the Wuyang River, enjoy a night cruise with lantern lights. · Day 2: Morning tranquility in Zhenyuan’s ancient alleys → Afternoon transfer to Libo, immerse in Xiaoqikong’s clear waters and green mountains. · Day 3: Depart from Libo → Morning visit to Zhaoxing Dong Village, afternoon to Langde Upper Village to experience authentic Miao life, then contentedly head home. 📌 Slow Travel Tips 1. All these places are conveniently accessible or transferable by high-speed rail; plan your train schedules in advance. 2. Choose distinctive riverside inns or village homestays for an immersive experience. 3. Spring to early summer brings more rain; remember to bring a sun-and-rain umbrella for both sun protection and rain. 4. Respect local customs, especially in ethnic minority villages; always ask permission before taking photos. Mountains and waters have spirits that heal the heart. Pick a weekend, hop on the high-speed train, and turn life into poetry in these small towns.

Morning sunlight streams through the car window, warming my face and dispelling the chill of the night. Last night, I stopped by a small road in Libo, and today's destination is Mulanfang · Guixiangye Luxury Family and Couple Resort. Driving along the winding mountain road, lush trees line both sides, and distant mountain ranges appear faintly in the mist. Such scenery makes you want to stop and take a deep breath of fresh air. 🚗🌿 🌟A riverside rest, living close to nature🏡 Upon arriving at Mulanfang · Guixiangye Luxury Family and Couple Resort, I was deeply captivated by the view. The resort is located on the banks of the Zhangjiang River, backed by karst mountains and surrounded by Bouyei ethnic villages, presenting a peaceful and idyllic rural landscape. My room faces the river, with a comfortable rattan table and chairs on the terrace. Sitting here with a cup of fragrant tea, watching the mist slowly drift across the river, time seems to stand still. 🍵 🏞️Nature hikes, exploring unknown journeys🚶‍♂️ Every morning, I hike along the mountain paths near the resort, breathing in the fresh forest air, listening to birdsong, and feeling every detail of nature. Sometimes, I meet friendly Bouyei villagers who warmly greet me and invite me to taste local specialties. This genuine hospitality makes me feel like I’ve returned to a long-lost hometown. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 🛌Comfortable sleep, a gentle haven after fatigue🛌 After a long day of driving, a good night's rest is especially important. Mulanfang’s rooms are equipped with King Koil mattresses, ensuring deep sleep every night. The beds are soft yet supportive, relieving the day’s fatigue and protecting spinal health. Waking up in such a comfortable environment makes every day a fresh start. 🌈 🌊Pool swimming, a cool corner in summer💦 The resort’s pool is a perfect summer escape. The clear water reflects the blue sky and white clouds, surrounded by shady trees, as if immersed in a beautiful painting. In the evening, you can enjoy outdoor movies by the pool and share travel stories with a few friends. These moments are truly unforgettable. 🎥

Step into the Earth's Green Gem: Libo Xiaoqikong, a Dream in Blue If there is a paradise on earth, it must look like Libo Xiaoqikong. Rated by National Geographic as "China's Most Beautiful Place," it is also certified by UNESCO as the "Green Gem on the Earth's Belt." Only when you truly set foot on this land will you realize that all the praise falls short—the flowing blue-green waters leave you speechless, with only your heart beating faster. (Image: Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge in the morning mist, its arch perfectly reflected in the water forming an ellipse, like a portal through time and space) 🌉 Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge: The Secret Gate Through Time Built in the 15th year of the Daoguang reign in the Qing Dynasty, the seven-arch ancient bridge is the heart of Xiaoqikong. It’s best to arrive before 7:30 AM (the first stop at the East Gate). When the mist gently caresses the water, the bluestone bridge and its semicircular reflection merge into one, blurring reality and illusion. The best photo spot is not on the bridge but on the boardwalk 20 meters upstream, where a telephoto lens can capture the bridge arches, emerald water, and primeval forest in one frame—every shot looks like an ink painting. 💦 68-Level Waterfall and Laya Waterfall: Nature’s Symphony Follow the Xiangshui River upstream through a 1.6 km valley where 68 cascading waterfalls layer like piano keys, playing a healing white noise. Further ahead, the Laya Waterfall rushes down a 30-meter cliff, with mist spraying your face up close. When sunlight refracts through the mist, rainbows appear—one of the most delightful surprises on your journey. 🌳 Water Forest: The Real-Life “Wizard of Oz” This is the most playful spot. Barefoot, step into the ankle-deep clear stream and wander among ancient trees rooted in rocks, truly experiencing the wonder of “water flowing over stones, trees growing in water.” Visiting here in summer to escape the heat is the purest way to connect with nature. 💎 Wolong Pool: The Enchanting “Tiffany Blue” As the grand finale, Wolong Pool’s blue is unreal. The curved dam creates a pearl-like curtain of water, while the pool surface remains calm as a mirror, reflecting the karst peaks. The best light is around noon on sunny days, perfect for capturing the gem-like blue layers. For a unique experience, rent a bamboo raft and wear traditional Hanfu to create stunning ancient-style photos. 🌸 Springtime Special: Mandarin Duck Lake’s Colorful Flower Sea (March-April) This spring, Mandarin Duck Lake features a new colorful rapeseed flower sea—pink, light purple, and pale yellow fields stretch along the lakeshore, paired with emerald water and transparent boats, like a flowing springtime painting. Rowing on the lake and entering the water maze is the most unique spring memory. (Image: Colorful rapeseed flower sea on Mandarin Duck Lake, with transparent boats gliding through) · -- 📌 Practical Tips · 🎫 Ticket Info: Scenic area combo ticket (including shuttle bus) costs about 170 RMB per person, around 150 RMB in the winter low season. It’s recommended to book 3 days in advance via the “One Code Travel Guizhou” mini program. · 🚗 Transportation: High-speed train from Guiyang to Libo Station (about 1 hour), then transfer to a bus or direct shuttle to the East Gate of the scenic area (about 25 minutes). · 🗺️ Recommended Route: Enter from East Gate to avoid crowds: Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge → Laya Waterfall → 68-Level Waterfall → Water Forest → Cuigu Waterfall → Mandarin Duck Lake → Wolong Pool; entering from West Gate is downhill all the way and easier: reverse order. · 💡 Tips: Light-colored long dresses photograph best; non-slip creek shoes are essential. Dining is concentrated at Mandarin Duck Lake station, so bringing snacks is advised. Tickets are valid for 7 days, allowing for a second visit if time permits. The beauty of Xiaoqikong is worth slowing down for. When the emerald water laps your ankles and the mist brushes your cheeks, you’ll realize every step was worth it—this is not just a sightseeing check-in, but a deep dialogue with nature. 💚

Libo is known as the "Emerald on the Earth's Belt," and the core experience here is to see and play with water. The water in Xiaoqikong and Daqikong is a dreamy blue-green, somewhat reminiscent of Jiuzhaigou, but with a more lively and intimate feel. I've put together a 2-3 day guide for you, hoping it will be helpful. 📝 Before You Go · Best Time to Visit: July to August during the high water season, when water volume is large and the scenery is at its best, perfect for water activities but also the peak season; September to October still offers beautiful water views with cooler weather. · Recommended Duration: 2-3 days. The focus is on Xiaoqikong and Daqikong; if you have more time, you can add Yaoshan Ancient Village or Maolan. · Transportation: Take the Guiyang-Guangzhou high-speed train to Sandu County Station or Rongjiang Station, then a bus to Libo, about 1.5-2 hours. You can also fly directly to Libo Airport (flights are limited). The shuttle bus to the scenic area is very convenient. · Accommodation Suggestions: For easy sightseeing, stay in Libo County town (more dining and lodging options, with a night market) or near the East Gate of Xiaoqikong Scenic Area (close to the ticket office, many guesthouses). · -- 🗺️ Classic 2-3 Day Itinerary Recommendation Day 1: Arrival and Libo Ancient Town · Arrive in Libo in the afternoon and check into a hotel in the county town. · In the evening, stroll around Libo Ancient Town. Although rebuilt, the blue tiles and white walls are great for photos, and there are many restaurants and craft shops. · For dinner, head to the food street to try the local specialty Zhangjiang Grilled Fish, paired with yangmei (bayberry) juice, which is very refreshing. Day 2: Core Tour: Xiaoqikong and Daqikong It’s best to enter the scenic area early. If you have energy, visit Xiaoqikong in the morning and Daqikong in the afternoon. · Morning: Xiaoqikong Bridge and Laya Waterfall · Enter from the East Gate: take the sightseeing bus directly to the most iconic Xiaoqikong Bridge. Early morning has fewer people and is best for photos. · Follow the trail to Laya Waterfall to feel the cool mist up close, then continue to the 68-step cascading waterfall. · Noon: Water Forest · Take a bus to the Water Forest, about 1.2 km away. Walk through the stones and forest while wading in water—very fun. It’s recommended to wear water shoes or sandals. · Afternoon: Cuigu and Wolong Pool · Cuigu Waterfall offers a wide view and was a filming location for "Adventure with Bear." · Wolong Pool is the essence of Xiaoqikong, with blue-green water like a gem. The arched dam forms a waterfall resembling comb teeth, very photogenic. You can try drifting in Wolong Valley (about 50 RMB), which is gentle. · Evening: Daqikong · Take a bus from Wolong Pool back to the East Gate and enter Daqikong around 4 PM. It’s recommended to take the boat round trip (20 RMB one way). Get off at the Terror Gorge and walk to the Natural Bridge, which is spectacular. The slanting evening light creates a great canyon atmosphere. If you have more time: Day 3 · Option A: Maolan Nature Reserve · Visit the true karst primeval forest of Maolan, ideal for hiking and adventure lovers. You can explore caves and cross funnel forests for a more original nature experience. · Option B: Yaoshan Ancient Village · Not far from Xiaoqikong and Daqikong, this is a settlement of the White Trousers Yao ethnic group. You can see the granary clusters, experience sticky glue dyeing, and learn about unique ethnic customs. · -- 🥘 Must-Try Foods · Zhangjiang Grilled Fish: Libo’s signature dish, made with fish from Zhangjiang River, covered with local spices and served with a variety of side dishes. · Beef Rice Noodles: Local specialty with fresh beef slices you cook yourself in hot broth, which is very flavorful. · Yangmei Juice: A perfect summer cooler, sweet and sour and refreshing, great to have after grilled fish. · Libo Wind-Dried Pork/Bacon: Local specialty with a unique flavor. · Yaoshan Chicken: Specialty of Yaoshan Ancient Village, with firm meat usually stewed in a clay pot. · -- 💡 Practical Tips 1. Clothing: Light-colored clothes (white, yellow, light blue) are best for photos. Be sure to wear non-slip, water-friendly shoes (like crocs or water shoes), essential for the Water Forest. 2. Sun and Mosquito Protection: UV rays are strong in the mountains, so use sunscreen. There are many plants, so bring mosquito repellent. 3. Book Tickets in Advance: During peak season, it’s recommended to book tickets (including sightseeing bus) online ahead of time. 4. Manage Your Time: Xiaoqikong is large, so use the sightseeing bus wisely. You don’t need to walk every spot to save energy. Libo’s beauty is pure and simple. I hope this guide helps you have a great time. If you have questions about hiking in Maolan or accommodations, feel free to ask me anytime~

If you're visiting Guizhou from February to March, don't miss this pure-play, hassle-free 6-day travel guide for Anshun and surrounding places! Visit Huangguoshu Waterfall, Xiaoqikong, and Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village for an in-depth exploration of Guizhou. This guide is worth bookmarking, sincerely recommended by locals. 🌞 Guizhou Attractions Introduction 🌲 Libo Xiaoqikong Scenic Area 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 📝 Reason for recommendation: The scenic area features a seven-arch stone bridge made of bluestone over the Xiangshui River. In autumn 2024, the "Waterfall Trekking and Water Play" project at Libo Xiaoqikong Scenic Area will open. It uses "Adventure with Bell" as its IP, covering an area of 0.5 square kilometers with a 2.8-kilometer route that includes attractions like Guibei Mountain and Stone Forest. It is a typical karst funnel forest. There is also a "Three Sections and Twenty Items" expansion study program, including jungle adventure and stream tracing experiences. Additionally, projects like Yuanyang Lake boat tours and Wolong Valley rafting have been optimized. 🏯 Zhenyuan Ancient Town 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 📝 Reason for recommendation: The river flows through the town in a beautiful bagua pattern, with ancient buildings nestled against the mountains. In autumn and winter, Zhenyuan Ancient Town welcomes the prelude to winter. The Shiyang River runs through the town, with winding bluestone paths. After the start of winter, the ancient town tucks away its autumn light, waiting quietly for the ginkgo trees to turn gold and the first snow to fall. In the early morning, the ancient ginkgo trees by the river turn yellow, sunlight dapples the ground, and fallen leaves flutter like butterflies. Strolling along the riverbank, the water reflects golden tree shadows and old houses. Elderly people bask in the sun, children chase fallen leaves, and the scent of ginkgo fills the air. When the first snow arrives, white and gold blend, ancient and elegant merge, like a traditional Chinese ink painting. ⛰️ Fanjing Mountain 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 📝 Reason for recommendation: A UNESCO World Natural Heritage site, a masterpiece crafted by nature. In winter, Guizhou’s rime ice is stunning. Leigong Mountain forms a "fairy tale scene" of rime ice and sea of clouds due to low temperatures and high humidity; after snowfall, Fanjing Mountain’s Red Cloud Golden Summit and Mushroom Stone are draped in silver, with rime ice and sea of clouds creating an ink painting scene, plus the spectacular "Buddha’s Light on Snow" phenomenon; Danzhai Longquan Mountain’s rime ice is dense like "jade flowers on branches." Lesser-known secret spots each have their own charm: Shiqian Xianren Street has an "ice and snow hanging corridor," Xingyi Bailong Mountain/Niuchang Township’s rime ice covers grasslands like "scattered pearls," and Sandu County’s Moon Mountain terraced fields’ rime ice resembles a natural ink painting. Walking through the rime ice forest is peaceful and pure, as if the soul is being cleansed.

Take the high-speed train directly to Libo, Guizhou, and escape the world in the water forest and karst blue caves. If Jiuzhaigou's waters are cold and aloof, then the waters of Libo's Xiaoqikong are wild and accessible. With the newly opened "Libo Station" on the high-speed rail, you'll enter this karst primitive forest, hailed as the "emerald gem on Earth's belt." The water here is a mesmerizing jade green and peacock blue. Trees grow directly in the water, and waterfalls cascade down from above the roads. This [Libo Water Maze and Reverse Travel Guide] teaches you how to avoid the crowds and enjoy this enchanted green wonderland.👇 🌿 A refreshing symphony of jade green waters and karst forests: 📍 Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge: A green dream at dawn Visual immersion: This is the most iconic sight in the area (tickets including shuttle bus cost around $140 HKD). Be sure to catch the first shuttle bus at 7:30 AM when the park opens! In the early morning, Xiaoqikong Ancient Bridge is free from noisy tour groups. This seven-arched stone bridge, built during the Qing Dynasty, spans the Xiangshui River, with its body covered in ancient vines and ferns. Beneath the bridge, the water is a captivating deep jade green, with a faint mist floating on the surface. Standing by the bridge feels like stepping into the mysterious realms of "The Lost Tomb" or a martial arts movie. 📍 Water Forest: Barefoot adventures among roots and rapids Immersive experience: This is the most unique experience in Xiaoqikong! A one-kilometer trail is entirely built within rapids surrounded by dense trees. Here, "water flows over stones, and trees grow in water." It's highly recommended to buy a pair of anti-slip water shoes (around $30 HKD)! Take off your stuffy sneakers and step directly into the cool, clear stream. Walk upstream on the riverbed stones and tangled tree roots. The water rushes against your ankles, while the lush green trees above block out the sky. With the deafening sound of rushing water, this is the ultimate summer refreshment and wild fun. 📍 Sour Soup Beef and Bayberry Drink: Guizhou's secret to beating the heat Taste explosion: After leaving the park, head to the food street in Libo County. Find a local eatery and order a steaming pot of sour soup beef (around $150 HKD/pot). Guizhou's sour soup is made from fermented wild tomatoes, with a bright red color and a rich, tangy, spicy flavor. Dip fresh slices of beef into the soup and pair it with a spicy dip made of Zhe'ergen (wild coriander) and chili paste for an incredibly appetizing meal. When the heat gets overwhelming, take a big gulp of chilled Libo bayberry drink (around $10 HKD/cup)—its sweet and sour taste will instantly revive you! 💡 Libo "West Entrance to East Exit" Reverse Travel Survival Guide: 🗺️ The "West Entrance to East Exit" energy-saving trick (extremely important!): Xiaoqikong Scenic Area is elongated, with the west entrance at a higher altitude and the east entrance at a lower altitude. It's strongly recommended to enter from the "west entrance" and exit at the "east entrance"! This way, you'll be walking downhill the entire time, making it much easier. If you start from the east entrance, you'll face a long uphill trek of over ten kilometers, which will completely drain your energy, leaving you no mood to enjoy the scenery. ☔ The karst magic of "no rain, no green": Xiaoqikong is at its most beautiful after a light rain on a cloudy day! Adequate water flow makes the waterfalls majestic, and the water takes on its deepest jade green hue. During consecutive sunny days (dry season), some waterfalls may dry up, and the water color turns pale. Be sure to bring an umbrella and disposable raincoat. 👟 Slippery warning and shoe selection: The park is extremely humid, with all stone steps and wooden walkways covered in moss, making them very slippery! Avoid flat shoes, sandals, or sneakers with poor grip. You must wear top-notch anti-slip outdoor shoes, or you risk slipping and getting injured near the waterfalls.
