The severely underrated small town of Guibei, I haven’t had enough of it after 10 visits

Guibei hides such a treasure town, it really should be popular 🔥 I came back and forth more than ten times, each time I found a new surprise, I feel that I can't finish exploring!

It is like a fusion treasure, eating habits with some Guizhou shadow, the county town style has a bit of Guilin Longsheng charm, at the same time is also the county of Liuzhou, the land of snail powder, and nurtures the secret and prosperous thousand-year-old Dong culture.

This is my third time to check in at the Courtyard by Marriott Sanjiang 🏨 The experience exceeded expectations! The hotel is known as "JW Courtyard" among regular customers, with excellent configuration and service. The design cleverly incorporates the wooden and woven elements of the Dong ethnic group, which is full of details. I also participated in the intangible cultural experience activities arranged by the hotel and gained a lot.

The lotus pond at the Three Kings Palace in Heri is a photo-taking spot that cannot be missed. The bright red and emerald green are intertwined, and the ancient wind and rain bridge stands quietly as the background. It is so beautiful that it seems to have crossed into an ancient painting. Try the crispy lotus pastry freshly baked, then sit back and enjoy a heart-warming bowl of oil tea and watch the fish frolicking among the lotus leaves.

If the summer vacation is hot and unbearable, it is better to calm down and experience the intangible cultural heritage: learn Dong painting, make flowers on the dustpan; or try Dong embroidery, between fingertips flipping, embroider colorful flowers, birds, insects and fish.

The highlight of the night is the performance of "Sitting Girl" at the Dong Country Bird's Nest. I still remember the first time I heard the Dong folk song, I was completely stunned and instantly forgot where I was. The multi-part harmony without instrumental accompaniment, like a heavenly sound, is mesmerizing.

Art was quietly born when humans had an immense reverence for nature. Sanjiang is the best seal!
Here is the world’s tallest and largest pure wood structure drum tower! There is no need for a nail or a rivet, just supported by the exquisite mortise and tenon structure, you will be amazed by what you see with your own eyes.
There are also those wind and rain bridges that connect the pavilions and pavilions. They are not only beautiful in shape, but also can attract the wind from the hall and block the rain in all seasons. On summer nights, local residents often take a walk on the bridge to cool off. From the hotel room, you can see the wind and rain bridge across the Weijiang River, and there are more than 200 such wind and rain bridges in Sanjiang!

The beauty of Sanjiang is rich and diverse, and its hospitality is even more passionate. Don't remember to go to Yue Ye Dong Village to experience the highest hospitality ceremony "Hundred Family Banquet"! Every household in the village will bring out their own good wine and dishes. You can take a bowl and "tour food" throughout the place. Such a unique and lively experience is definitely a unique memory of the Dong village.
