| Stay at the Village Super Hotel and discover colorful attractions. 🌍 Folks, visiting Rongjiang is totally worth it! Not only are there tons of fun attractions, but also amazing hotels to relax your mind and body 😎 Today, I’ll share some of Rongjiang’s highlights and the hidden gem hotel I stayed at. 🏨 [Guizhou Village Super Hotel]: Stepping into the second floor of the hotel feels like traveling through a time tunnel, where precious batik, Miao silver ornaments, exquisite Miao embroidery, and traditional costumes are displayed. Each piece carries historical memories, like flipping through a profound book about Guizhou’s ethnic minority culture. The rooms are designed with simplicity and warmth, featuring large floor-to-ceiling windows. In the morning, you can see the Village Super football field surrounded by greenery, and at night, the twinkling lights add a romantic touch. The bedding is soft and comfortable, and the bathroom is fully equipped with high-quality toiletries. The hotel restaurant is fantastic, offering a rich variety of breakfast options and authentic Guizhou dishes for lunch and dinner—the sour fish soup is incredibly delicious. There’s also a thoughtful children’s play area and a rooftop five-a-side football field, making it perfect for family trips. 📍 The location is superb, right on the west side of Rongjiang County Stadium’s Village Super hotspot. It’s just a 3-minute walk to the Village Super football field and only a 10-minute taxi ride from Rongjiang High-Speed Railway Station. 🌳 Rongjiang County Attractions: - Sanbao Dong Village: Known as the "No. 1 Dong Village in the World," it features the Guinness-certified Sanbao Drum Tower with 21 floors and a height of 36.8 meters. Climbing the tower offers a panoramic view of the entire Dong village, showcasing its unique architectural charm and cultural heritage. The ancient banyan trees are another highlight—38 of them, planted during the Qianlong era of the Qing Dynasty, are over 300 years old. Their intertwined branches form a green canopy, and the "Ancient Banyan Embracing a Stele" is a magical sight. Additionally, the Sama Temple and the statues of Zhulang and Niangmei are full of cultural and romantic vibes. Here, you can also savor local delicacies like niubie (beef tripe), pickled fish, and cured meat. - Rongjiang Ancient Banyan Scenic Area: The area is home to countless banyan trees, including over 1,000 ancient ones aged over a century and 1,200 young and middle-aged ones. These ancient banyans are scattered around village entrances, riverbanks, and streams, with peculiar shapes like "Ancient Banyan Devouring a Temple," "Tree of Life and Death," "Nine Dragons Entering the Sea," and "Banyan Root Waterfall." Each tree seems to tell a historical story. - Dali Dong Village: This is a tranquil and rustic Dong village, featuring a stone-paved ancient path built in the 58th year of the Qianlong era. Walking on it feels like touching the traces of history. There are also five exquisitely designed Dong wind-and-rain bridges spanning the streams, adding a poetic touch to the village. The grand Dong-style quadrangles and unique grain-drying barns are also worth seeing. - Rongjiang Red Seventh Army Historical Exhibition Hall: The hall displays a rich collection of artifacts, vividly showcasing the glorious history of the Red Seventh Army in Rongjiang. It’s an important window into Rongjiang’s red culture and a great place for patriotic education.

📍Location: Rongjiang Guizhou Village Hotel This breakfast lover recommends this to you in real name! The biggest surprise of staying in a hotel is actually breakfast? ! From traditional to Western, I can save a lunch after eating it💰 🍳 Only when it is made to order can it be delicious The open kitchen is so popular! The chef makes bread on the spot, and pours the special sauce on the soft-boiled eggs. There are also freshly wrapped shrimp wontons, and the soup is so sweet that you can drink it. I even have two bowls! 🥐 A combination of Chinese and Western elements, super satisfying The crispy toasted bread with osmanthus honey sauce is so delicious that it will crumble into pieces once you take a bite! The Chinese steamer must have lava buns + custard buns, the lava bursts out directly ~ with a bowl of local rice noodles, the local special taste is refreshing 😂 💡 The window seats in the breakfast area are too big to fit in the picture! The sunshine shines on the food and the atmosphere is perfect. Remember to come early to avoid the peak ~ It is really worth staying in the hotel with breakfast included.

🖼 Atop the clouds, colorful landscapes, here is also the nationally famous Guizhou 'village supermarket'. Coming to Guizhou, you can truly experience the geographical environment of 'eight mountains, one water, and a patch of farmland', and appreciate the multi-ethnic culture of 'different customs every ten miles, and every hundred miles'. ❤ Speaking of Guizhou's scenery, the first thing that definitely comes to mind is the 'Huangguoshu Waterfall', which is the largest waterfall in Asia, known for its magnificent water flow. Centered around the Huangguoshu Waterfall, there are 18 large and small waterfalls with diverse styles such as majestic, strange, perilous, and elegant, forming a huge waterfall group. It is a must-visit scenic spot that should be on everyone's travel bucket list. ❤ When talking about beautiful scenery, we must mention the southern part of Guizhou, 'Libo', which is a wonderful karst forest with stunning scenery and rich ethnic customs, known as the 'Emerald on the Earth's Belt'. Within Libo, there are the Zhangjiang Scenic Area and the Maolan Nature Reserve, among which the Zhangjiang Scenic Area contains the well-known Small and Large Seven Holes. 🧳 Stepping into Guizhou, the ancient towns are your travel havens, each with its own flavor. Even if they climb up the popular recommendations, they are the places with the fewest passers-by during the travel photography process, always so quiet, so returning to simplicity and truth. 🚉 Personal travel route recommendation: Depart from Guiyang ---- Huangguoshu Waterfall ---- Libo ---- Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village ---- Fanjingshan ---- Zhenyuan Ancient Town ---- Return trip (the airport is the best destination) ⏳ Time recommendation based on personal travel experience; one day per location, starting from five days, eight days can cover the main attractions. 📝 Suggestions: Many scenic spots have direct bus tickets, which are convenient and labor-saving to purchase.

Day1 Arrived in the evening, Guzhou Town, the night view is very picturesque. Accommodation: Homestay, the price is economical and affordable, and the environment is also very good. The only bad experience is that there are a few neighbors with very poor quality who quarrel in the middle of the night and affect sleep. The Guzhou Dahekou Wharf is right at the door. When I get up in the morning, the fog is thick, and there are residents picking up screws in the water, which is very comfortable. Day2 Went to Guzhou Street, visited Lianghu Guild Hall and Guangdong Guild Hall, the street has a lot of special snacks (rolled powder, fried powder, all kinds of cakes, and realized strawberry freedom) Dali Dong Village: Take a taxi from Rongjiang County, 100 yuan, it is recommended to leave the driver's phone number, it is very remote, it is not easy to take a taxi back, you can contact the driver. If possible, it is more convenient to drive by yourself. Village Supermarket: I went to watch the village super preliminaries in the evening. Although it was a preliminary match, the scene was very hot and crowded. I don't understand football, but I will be ignited by the scene. Free parking at the door, free admission to watch, and many enthusiastic local residents. Diet: local special snacks Rolled powder (bought twice, the one on the small stall in Guzhou Old Street is delicious) Niu Die sour soup beef hot pot (really can't get used to it, it's smelly, bitter and fishy, don't try it casually if you can't accept it! There is a bad smell on my body after eating) Fortunately, I ordered a double mix, the sour soup beef is delicious! Fried rice noodles, meat tangyuan, bean flour cake, leifen, taro balls (Da Shizi Food Street—Xiaoji Tangyuan) There are many strawberry gardens and pomelo gardens locally, which are super cheap and delicious. Finally, although Niu Die hot pot is a feature, it is really not something you can try casually. Don't be as uncomfortable as I am all night, until before taking a bath at the hotel, it smells bad.
