A family-praised Guizhou parent-child trip! The hotel my husband chose is amazing, and after a week of fun, we want to come back

Who would have thought! I used to think taking kids to the beach was the easiest, but this trip to Guizhou completely changed my mind — the mountains and waters here are truly a treasure for family trips! 🏞️
Huangguoshu Waterfall amazed the kids, Libo Xiaoqikong let them chase little fish, and when the stilt houses in Qianhu Miao Village lit up at night, the kids exclaimed it looked like a "star castle"! Plus, the sour soup fish and long table feast made even picky eaters happily eat two extra bowls~

🔶 Family-friendly luxury accommodations
Village Study Homestay has a small courtyard where kids can run and play
Huangguoshu Yaojia Wangpu Hotel opens right onto the waterfall, so healing to wake up to
Xijiang Sanchunli Mengdu Resort has super thoughtful family rooms and a Miao embroidery experience
Fengxi Cave Homestay, kids stayed in a cave for the first time, full of novelty
