Escape the hustle and bustle of the city—I found a real-life fairy tale forest in Zhaoxing Dong Village!

There’s a breeze from the human world that fills my dreams with endless possibilities💨 Compared to the busy city, I love this fairy tale world deep in the mountains of Guizhou, forgotten by time. Zhaoxing Dong Village was named a "Village on the Edge of Time" by National Geographic and is one of China’s seven major hiking routes! This early autumn, I truly found a real-life fairy tale forest village here🌳 When you don’t want to work, come stay here for a few days! High-speed trains run directly from Guangdong, Sichuan, Chongqing, and other places🚄 making travel easy even for the lazy. Super cost-effective and you can experience the most authentic Dong ethnic life👏 ✨Super convenient transportation: After arriving at Congjiang Station by high-speed train🏆 The guesthouse will kindly pick you up, or you can take the scenic area shuttle bus for 15 minutes straight to the center of the Dong village! ✨Authentic local life check-in spots: Although it’s a tourist area, it’s so well preserved! Locals still maintain their original lifestyle. In the early morning streets, you can still see grandmas selling vegetables🥬 The Dong village is divided into 5 major clans, with 5 drum towers that are truly impressive‼️ Each drum tower is the social center of a clan.
