Qujing Roaming

The rice fields and ancient opera stage of Baiwu Village are really underrated😜!

In Huize, Qujing, Yunnan🤩, there is a lesser-known travel destination, only 25 kilometers away from Huize Ancient Town🚗, and it takes just one hour to drive there🤗! The summer and autumn seasons in Baiwu Village are very beautiful🤩, and you don't have to go to Dali to smell the fragrance of rice🌾🌾~ This place is truly a land of outstanding people and splendid culture, where the prosperity of ancient times can still be vaguely seen👀.

The buildings in Baiwu Village are mainly arranged vertically or parallel to the streets🎪. The ancient Baiwu opera stage is located at the center of the traditional village🤴, which is the heart of the village🎭. Baiwu Village was a military and commercial post station during the Western Han Dynasty🛣, and with the development of the Tong mine in Dongchuan Prefecture during the middle and late Ming Dynasty, the village's economy flourished and its culture thrived🎉, making it a major commercial town in the western part of Huize🎯, and a major station for the transportation of copper from the south to the north and the main supply site for copper materials for coinage during the Ming and Qing dynasties🧐, earning it the reputation of 'the first station of the thousand-mile capital transport'👍.

After roaming the Dali-style rice fields🏞, you can also visit the old street to see the ancient temples🛕 and opera stage🎶, and by the way, have a bowl of pea powder and Zhua Zhua powder at an old brand restaurant🥣, which in Qujing dialect is said to be 'pea powder is very hard zou'😝. Time moves slowly here🕰, and it's not very commercialized. This is the real Yunnan rhythm🎵!
