šŸ—ŗ 2-Day 1-Night Summer Itinerary
ā–«ļø Day 1:
- Arrive and check in
- Afternoon: Stroll through Wujiang Village's streets, ride a small boat, and watch the mist rise over the river; try tie-dyeing at a homestay, then rest at Qian Tea House
- Evening: Enjoy the intangible cultural heritage performance of bamboo drifting, and the "Baba Festival Street Parade"—actors with lanterns march from the street to Huilong Island, interspersed with fireworks for a spectacular show
- Night: The music fountain + drone show is breathtaking, like a scene from a dream; the "10,000-Person Dance Night" takes the excitement to the next level! Light a bonfire, follow the rhythm, and even if you can't dance, the energy is contagious. Afterward, head to Taiyi Bridge for night photos—the lights reflecting on the water are mesmerizing

ā–«ļø Day 2:
- Morning: Rent Miao ethnic clothing and take a paddleboat ride—the morning mist makes it feel like gliding through an ink painting. Don’t forget to snap lots of photos!
- Noon: Head straight to the "Eight Directions Feast"! The highlight of the Baba Festival, with long tables from 8 ethnic groups serving dishes like sour fish soup, sticky rice, and gray tofu—all while watching ethnic dances and toasts. So festive!

šŸ“ [Travel Tips]
1. The scenic area has daily activities—grab a schedule at the entrance so you don’t miss the parades and dances!
2. Cloudy/rainy days feel cooler, so bring a light jacket for evening views.
3. Staying in the scenic area is a steal! Various platforms offer different package deals.
4. High-speed rail to Zunyi Station or Zunyi South Station works, but Zunyi South is closer to the scenic area.
