Compared to Zhaoxing Dong Village, I prefer this niche Dong village in Hunan

In recent years, when it comes to Dong villages, many people immediately think of Zhaoxing Dong Village in Guizhou. In fact, in this nearby area, there are many Dong villages, many of which are niche and great for photography, with almost no one around. Today, NANA is going to talk about this niche Dong village in Huaihua, Hunan—Yutou Dong Village.

The Tongdao in the southern part of Huaihua, Hunan, is an autonomous county for the Dong people. There are many Dong villages in the mountains near the city, some of which are quite commercialized, while others are rarely visited by tourists. Yutou is a Dong village built along the mountain. The village is not large, ancient, and full of life. Following the mountain path all the way up, there are wind and rain bridges, drum towers, and fire pits. When you reach halfway up the mountain, you can see another village in the mountain bay. It turns out that Dong villages can be hidden so deeply and mysteriously!

Another reason I like this place is that along the way, the grandmas and grandpas of the village were doing farm work while chatting with us, very warmly.

🌟Things to do
✅Experience Dong ethnic costumes
✅Wind and rain bridge outside the village
✅Take photos with the drum tower and drum tower square
✅Warm yourself by the fire pit with Dong uncles and aunts (Dong lifestyle)
✅Take photos with Dong grandmas
✅Take beautiful photos of the village and Dong girls~

Yutou Ancient Dong Village has a history of more than 600 years. The stilted buildings and village layout are well preserved, and most importantly, there are almost no tourists, making it a great place for photography and fun~ A treasure of a Dong village~
