Guizhou's "Enchanted Forest" Can No Longer Stay Hidden

I thought Guizhou was all about mountains, but I stumbled straight into a real-life fairy tale!
Xingyi—this name might sound unfamiliar, but its landscapes will leave you speechless!
Here’s your "Xingyi Wonderland Guide"—save it now! 👇

A Magical Start 🏰
Hidden in the heart of Wanfeng Lake is a European-style castle—Jilong Castle! No Photoshop, no special effects! For a moment, I truly believed I’d wandered into someone’s fairy tale. It’s not that Europe isn’t worth it, but Guizhou offers better value!

Lost in a Landscape Painting 🏞️
Wanfenglin is absolutely breathtaking! Thousands of small peaks rise like bamboo shoots. Riding an e-bike through them, I felt like the protagonist of a martial arts novel retreating into the mountains!

The Slow Life 🏡
Staying in Nahui Village within Wanfenglin, I woke up to endless rice fields and distant mountains. No rat race here—just the ancient banyan tree at the village entrance, babbling streams, and the smiles of Bouyei grandmothers. My spiritual home—found at last! 😭

Earth’s Scar 💦
Malinghe Canyon is another kind of awe! A 100-meter-deep gorge with countless waterfalls cascading down like silver rivers hanging from cliffs—both stunning and mysterious. Faced with nature’s masterpiece, humanity feels so small!

Here, anxiety seems blocked by the mountains. You’ll realize happiness can be simple: just feeling the breeze, soaking in the green, and enjoying a good meal.
