Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village Family Travel Guide: Avoid the main road and "climb onto the roof".

We went from Changsha to Kaili to meet my daughter. Before we went, I had read a lot of complaints about Xijiang Miao Village, mainly about the strong commercial atmosphere and the long walk with luggage. This time, I stayed with my daughter for three nights. The Miao Village is really beautiful, especially since it was sunny for three days, which made for great photos. Of course, there are also many pitfalls, which I will share with you today: . 📷 Photo spots: This group of photos was mainly taken at Yunting and the coffee shop next to it. Yunting charges CNY 100 for half an hour. My photos were taken by my aunt. The coffee shop next to it is also recommended. Photos 3⃣️5⃣️ were taken there. You will pass by it when you walk from the mountain top viewing platform to Yunting and then from Yunting to Bridge No. 4. The drinks are average, but the scenery is beautiful. . 🚗 Transportation in the scenic area: The homestay I booked helped me carry my luggage, but I had to change cars twice from the gate to the pick-up point, which was really inconvenient with a child and two pieces of luggage. I paid CNY 260 to charter a sightseeing car, which picked us up at the gate without queuing and took us to the place where the homestay could help us carry our luggage. The car can seat 17 people. If you have a large group, you can consider chartering an electric car, which is much easier. . 💰 Commercialization: The whole Miao Village is a homestay and large photo studio, and more than half of the shops are for renting Miao costumes and taking photos. I am a relatively tolerant traveler, but I felt a headache when I walked to the main road of the square and the river. However, as long as you walk to the mountainside, you can get away from the hustle and bustle and enter another quiet world. . 👗 Family outfits: We also rented Miao and Bouyei costumes for photos. I haven't got the photos yet, which is another story. I will write about it next time. This group of black dresses is a good match for the Miao Village. You can try all black.
