Working people's three-day and two-night escape plan

🎈Follow National Geographic to explore one of the most beautiful villages in China - Zhaoxing Dong Village in Qiandongnan. Spend two to three days immersing yourself in the primitive and simple Dong culture. Beautiful scenery and fewer people make it a great weekend getaway for working people.✨ 📝3 Days 2 Nights Play Guide: 🚄High-speed rail: Depart from Guangzhou South and arrive at 'Congjiang Station'. It takes about 3-4 hours from Guangdong. After arriving at Congjiang Station, go to the second floor of the passenger building on the right side of the high-speed rail station and take a minibus. It takes about 10 minutes to reach the Dong Village. Day 1: Arrive at Congjiang High-speed Rail Station at noon, go to the hotel/guesthouse to drop off your luggage and have lunch. Then take a leisurely stroll around the village (it takes 2-3 hours to walk around). In the evening, go to the viewing platform of the Dong Village to enjoy the beautiful sunset. After that, return to Zhaoxing Dong Village for dinner and watch a folk performance. Day 2: Rent a set of ethnic costumes, put on beautiful makeup, and take photos in the Dong Village. Then take a car to Tang'an Terraces for photos and enjoy the sunset (there are many photo spots in the terraces, with a high success rate). Return to the Dong Village for dinner and snacks, and you can also sit at the bar entrance to listen to music and enjoy the night view. Day 3: In the morning, check in at the rooftop cafe of the Dong Village (Not Just Coffee☕️), overlooking the entire village, and take beautiful photos. Order a drink, sit by the window to read a book and enjoy the scenery, relax and daydream, it's very pleasant. Buy some specialties at noon, then go back to the hotel to pack your luggage. In the afternoon, take the high-speed rail back to Guangzhou and end the pleasant trip.🚄 📸Best photo spots in Tang'an Terraces: √At Tang'an Zhelou, climb the stone steps to the high place, you can take photos of the whole village. The viewing platform and dessert shop at the parking lot at the entrance of V are also good places for photos. 📸Great photo spots in Zhaoxing Dong Village: 🔻The five drum towers in the village. 🔻The single-plank bridge in front of the dyeing workshop. 🔻The alley in front of the Lituan Drum Tower. 🔻Yituan Drum Tower and Flower Bridge. 😋Food recommendations: 🫐Blueberries: The local prices are very surprising! 15 yuan for a big box, the fruits are not big, but there are many, nearly a pound. Other fruits are also very cheap, passion fruit is big and sweet, with no sour taste. 🍜Beef noodles: Both clear soup and sour soup are extremely delicious. Liao Pangzi and Yipin Dongxiang are both good, but you may need to queue at Liao Pangzi. 🍲Hot pot: Sour soup fish hot pot is similar in every restaurant, but the beef ribs at Dongniang are large and tasty. 🌮Snacks: But family crispy duck, sweet rice wine, fragrant roasted pork, glutinous rice is easy to get tired of, no particularly amazing snacks were found. 📷Travel photo costumes + makeup: The ethnic photo studio I chose was very good, 99 yuan for makeup and costumes. I didn't hire a photographer, but the photos I took myself were also beautiful. Many people recommended Yena, Xiamao, Mengmao Huqiao before, you can try them. There may be many people waiting when you go, and the beautiful clothes may be worn out. You can experience it. Overall, this three-day and two-night trip was amazing! Avoid the summer crowds, escape the hustle and bustle of the city, come here to relax, and it's very healing.💖
