Chengyang Bazhai

The world is so big, only Guangxi is on holiday. To experience the Guangxi March Third, I specifically went to Liuzhou for a few days and summarized this practical guide for four days and three nights, with an average cost of less than 2000 yuan. Firstly, it is recommended to take the high-speed train to Liuzhou and then rent a car for a self-driving tour. Liuzhou has many two-seater electric cars, starting at 1 yuan, which are cheap and convenient. Secondly, for the three-day accommodation, it is suggested to stay in Liuzhou city on the first day, in Mengwu Miao Village on the second day, and in Chengyang Bazhai on the third day, as these three places have many attractions and activities. Finally, the itinerary is suggested as follows. Day one, Liuzhou day trip, visit Longtan Park in the morning, where there are several spots that are very photogenic, especially suitable for ancient-style photography. Have lunch at a nearby Luosifen rice noodle shop. In the afternoon, visit Liuhou Temple, which is an ancient architectural complex commemorating the famous Tang Dynasty literary figure Liuzongyuan, and the Three Absolutes Stele, the treasure of the temple, is not to be missed. Before evening, go to Yufengshan Park to take the elevator to the top of Ma'anshan to watch the sunset, where you can see the panoramic view of Liuzhou city with an excellent view (unfortunately, it was raining when I went and I didn't see anything). In the evening, go to the five-star pedestrian street to stroll through the night market and eat street food, and then walk to the riverside at eight o'clock to watch the fountain night view. Day two: In the morning, go to Mengwu Miao Village, a two-hour drive. Then rent a Miao costume for travel photography, have dinner at the long table banquet, and remember to sign up in advance. After dinner, stroll through the ancient village, the night view is very dreamy, just like entering the world of animation, and there is a performance at eight o'clock in the evening, remember to watch it by the pool. Day three: In the morning, go to Chengyang Bazhai, about a two-hour drive. After arriving, rent a Dong costume and then tour around. There are eight villages here which are very large, it is recommended to focus on visiting Ma'anshan Village and Yan Village, Yongji Bridge, Drum Tower, riverside terraces, and deep alleys are all great for portrait photography. Have lunch at the fire pit family banquet (the taste is really good, a table costs more than 1000 yuan, you need to book in advance, it is best to have around 10 people), and have dinner at the drum tower long table banquet in Ma'anshan Village in the evening, also need to sign up in advance. Day four: In the morning, go to Sanjiang county town to see the world's longest wind and rain bridge, and then return. Above is the Liuzhou four days three nights guide, if you have any questions, please leave a message, if you want to know more travel information, welcome to follow Mango Travel Diary.

High-speed rail direct access｜The millennium Dong village is a paradise, preserving the original ecology of the village. I still like it here when I brush Chengyang Bazhai for the second time It really looks like an ancient village in a secret realm, escaping from the hustle and bustle Rich and colorful Dong culture, although it is a scenic spot, it still retains the simple and pure Dong folk customs, the original ecological natural ancient village, terraces, wind and rain bridges, and Dong drum towers Eight villages are connected together, and it really takes two days to finish the eight villages • Walking in the village, Dong houses are mainly wooden structures, with unique architectural styles, more like a piece of art You can choose to live in the village, stay in a Dong house for one night, and the sound of climbing up the wooden stairs will definitely make you unforgettable • The Dong drum tower is also a symbol of the eight villages.

Hidden in the village is a paradise. There is always an indescribable feeling towards ancient cities and streets, perhaps because the impression left by the overly commercialized so-called ancient cities is not good. Among the ancient cities in many ethnic autonomous counties, it is rare to find a place where commercialization is not annoying, yet one can truly experience the pastoral and local customs. 🛖🛖🛖 Guangxi's northern Sanjiang County (belonging to Liuzhou), connected to Hunan and Guizhou, is home to Chengyang's 'Eight Villages', a paradise hidden away, accessible only by a wind and rain bridge. After entering the scenic area, shuttle vehicles are available, but upon reaching the Chengyang Bridge area, which connects to the outside, you can only walk into the village. 👉🏻Must-visit recommendations→ 🔹Chengyang Yongji Bridge, a cultural heritage that has been built for a hundred years, with mortise and tenon structure, ingeniously designed. It reflects the crystallization of the wisdom of the laboring people at that time. 🔹Dong Painting Museum, a museum well worth a visit. The life scenes of the Dong people are vividly recorded through colorful Dong paintings. 🔹Yanzhai Drum Tower, one of the larger drum towers here. There is also a big stage where you can watch song and dance performances at night. Spending 80 yuan on a 'Hundred Family Banquet' here allows you to taste all the special dishes of Sanjiang, which is really worth the ticket price. At night, the Yanzhai Drum Tower is brightly lit, like a star in this place. 🔹Tea Garden, where aunties carry bamboo baskets on their backs every day to pick fresh leaves in the tea garden, experiencing the work of tea farmers up close. 🔹Yanlong Ridge, a mountain hiking trail. Climbing the mountain offers a panoramic view of Chengyang's Eight Villages, and following the signs, you can walk back to Ping Village. 📸About photography There are several ethnic clothing shops in the scenic area that rent out costumes for tourists to take photos. It's about 60 yuan per day, and you can experience being a Dong girl (or Dong boy) for a day. 🍲About food: There are many noodle shops in the scenic area, with snail noodles costing about 10 yuan per bowl, and some small restaurants where stir-fried dishes range from 20 to 80 yuan, depending on what you choose. At the head of the wind and rain bridge, Dong grandmothers sell their homemade glutinous rice cakes, glutinous rice, and snacks, which are also a few yuan per serving. Their local pork is really fragrant, the kind that melts in your mouth, highly recommended→❗ 📌Tips: You cannot buy tickets for the sightseeing bus on the bus itself; you need to purchase them at the entrance of the scenic area. Or you can buy a package ticket online and redeem it at the self-service machine on-site. Without a sightseeing bus ticket voucher, you cannot take the sightseeing bus. 📍Location: Chengyang Eight Villages, Sanjiang 🎫Ticket: 90 yuan/person (including sightseeing bus inside the scenic area) 🏠About accommodation: I stayed in a homestay within the scenic area, with prices ranging from 80 to 300 yuan on weekdays, and prices increase during holidays. Yanzhai is more lively, while Ping Village is quieter. You can book a homestay according to your personal preferences. 🚌About transportation: The high-speed train goes directly to Sanjiang South Station, and shortly after exiting the station, you can see a signboard that says 'Scenic Area Shuttle' which can take us directly into the scenic area. After entering the scenic area, you can take the sightseeing bus, and there are stops in the village where you can get on and off. The stops also provide a phone number, so if you are in a hurry, you can call directly. 🚐Tourist shuttle line: Chengyang Eight Villages Scenic Area — Sanjiang South Station Tourist Distribution Point Departure times: 8:50 11:10 13:50 15:50 Sanjiang South Station Tourist Distribution Point — Chengyang Eight Villages Scenic Area Departure times: 10:00 12:10 14:50 17:40 Ticket: 15 yuan/person (one-way) Travel time is about 50 minutes

At the border of Guangxi and Guizhou lies a city with beautiful scenery, low cost of living, and simple local customs, making it both a delightful place to eat and to have fun. The world is so vast, yet only Guangxi is on holiday, celebrating the March 3rd Festival. I made a special trip to Liuzhou for a few days and discovered that it is a hidden gem of a tourist city. Not only is its industry well-developed, but it also boasts rich tourism resources, numerous attractions, and plenty of delicious street food. Here, at the border with Guizhou, the ethnic minority culture is strong. If you also want to visit Liuzhou, you can refer to this practical four-day, three-night itinerary, which costs less than 2000 yuan per person. First, it is recommended to take the high-speed train to Liuzhou, then rent a car for a road trip. Liuzhou has many two-seater electric cars, with rentals starting at 1 yuan, which are cheap and convenient. Secondly, for a three-day stay, it is suggested to spend the first night in the Liuzhou city area, the second night in Mengwu Miao Village, and the third night in Chengyang Bazhai, as these three places have many attractions and activities.
