The breath of autumn slowly comes, making people have the impulse to travel, we went to Guizhou, which is known as "eight mountains, one water and one field", looking for a picturesque beauty of the country.
As we all know, the Guizhou Plateau is mostly mountainous, there are almost no plains, and the villages seem to be embedded in the mountains and rivers, like a paradise, and every frame is enchantingly beautiful.
It is also the only Chinese city to be named one of the world's best travel destinations in 2020 by Lonely Planet.
Thousands of miao villages full of cooking smoke, spectacular Huangguoshu waterfall, unique customs and customs... The colorful Guizhou has a fascinating magic, and it will surely fill your camera memory with a trip.
"Satisfy your fantasy of heaven and earth, Guizhou is too beautiful"
In fact, before going to Guizhou, our impression of it only existed in some movie scenes. For example, "The Last Night on Earth", "Roadside Picnic", "Four Springs" and so on, transcendent but fireworks.
Until this five-day journey, we climbed over the mountains, from spectacular waterfalls to deep thousands of miao villages, and punched in a scenic spot every day.
Enjoying the natural scenery of "one mountain divided into four seasons, ten miles of different days", immersed in colorful ethnic culture and simple folk customs, can be regarded as truly opening up guizhou, a paradise.

(Guangzhou - Guiyang)
After arriving in the local area, because the attractions in Guizhou are scattered between them, and many beautiful scenery is hidden in villages where public transportation is not easy to reach, it is recommended to travel by car or charter a car.
Guizhou is destined to be a desirable place.
Its beauty is not only the ancient village of alpine flowing water, "and no car and horse noise", but also like a good glass of wine, which is worth exploring slowly and savoring.
Staying in the noisy big city for a long time, occasionally staying away from reinforced concrete, living in the most primitive houses, living a slow-paced life, feeling the most rustic customs and customs, and coming back to basics is also very comfortable.
