The southern part of China is emerging as a popular travel destination for locals! Let's go in search of scenery that we've never seen before. If you drive west from Changsha, the capital of Hunan Province, you'll find the Aizhai Bridge. It's a suspension bridge connecting the southwestern region, with a length of 1,146m, and is famous as a 'driving course above the clouds' and a tourist attraction. This is because you can experience 'sky walking' under the bridge. After walking on the special bridge with the dizzying scenery beneath your feet, you can get a taste of Hunan's daily life by eating a bowl of unique bibim rice noodles that resemble tadpole noodles at the nearby Daxingcai Agricultural Market (大兴寨农贸市场). Let's go to Guizhou Province along the winding mountain path! It is a mountainous area where ethnic minorities have lived together since ancient times, and it has preserved its own unique culture. On the way to Jianli Village (占里村) deep in the mountains, we meet residents making unique wooden structures at the entrance of the village. The conversation of the residents is completely understandable! This is a village where the Dong ethnic minority lives. We go on a full tour with the guidance of a resident we contacted in advance. Since it was selected as a model village for rural revitalization in 2021, it also has a 'new and improved' accommodation. We can see the Dong ethnic group's dexterity, famous for building structures 'without using a single nail', in the wooden pagoda and drum tower built in the center of the village. In the fall, the men are busy repairing their houses and the women are busy dyeing cloth. There is another famous thing in this village. It is a well where men drink when they want to have a boy, and a well where women drink when they want to have a girl. What does the water with its legend taste like? After looking around the village, we help out at Umei's rice field. Umei's family only prepares rice and goes there to cook and eat in the rice field! We get a glimpse of the wisdom of our people who get everything from nature. In search of another landscape, we head to the southernmost part of Hunan. We go to Tianzhou, a resort loved by southern tourists. At the Wujibong Peak of Mangshan, where the mountains spread out like a vast ocean, a magnificent view awaits you that you have never seen before. We encounter the secret landscape that everyone dreams of at least once. ✔ Program name: World Theme Travel - Hot Places in Southern China Part 1 Nice to meet you, Tianzhou ✔ Broadcast date: 2024.11.11
