Itinerary
It takes about 2 hours to drive from Guilin to Ping’an Village (If your hotel is in Yangshuo, 3 hours). Upon arrival, walk uphill by taking the slate-paved stairs through the village on the mountainside. A zero-distance look at those wooden and mortise-and-tenon structured houses will leave you an unforgettable memory. On the top of the mountain, see the beautiful contour-map-like terraced rice paddies. Meet Zhuang people making straw sandal shoes and colorful insoles.
From the viewing platform, you will be visit Dazhai, a famous Yao people’s village. After a shot walk, see a jade-green colored reservoir. About 2 hour walk along the ridge of the rice fields where you will see a Yao village, and it’s around the half way between Ping’an and Dazhai.
Take another 2 hours to Zhongliu village where you can see more terraced rice paddies and elegantly standing bamboos. May come across Yao people working in the fields with their buffalo.
Pass by a small village named Tiantou where you can have a panoramic view around. Keep going downhill, you will see a basin densely occupied by the black-roofed wood houses. Here comes Dazhai, the end of your hiking!
