Qingyan Ancient Town – A 600-Year Journey Through Stone Streets & Ming Dynasty Legends

#springitinerary

Just 30 km from Guiyang, Qingyan Ancient Town is a 600-year-old fortress town built in 1378 during the Ming Dynasty. Encircled by stone walls and tucked into rolling hills, its labyrinth of flagstone alleys, temples, and courtyard homes immerses you in a living museum of ethnic Han, Miao, and Buyi cultures. Don’t miss:
Climbing the Ancient Wall for panoramic views.

Best Time to Go:
- April–October: Lush greenery and festivals.
- Weekdays: Fewer crowds than weekends.
