In Nanning, who doesn't know about this photogenic little town?

🏯 The town is small, consisting of 56 buildings with Dong ethnic characteristics. The first time you see the central tower, you'll feel like you've traveled to Qiandongnan. Other details incorporate ethnic elements such as the languages, totems, patterns, art, and festivals of 12 ethnic groups in Guangxi. Many events are held here regularly.✨

🏯 There are many restaurants and photo shops here. Although it's a commercialized town, ⚠️ it's a bit too commercialized, with photo shops lining the streets. It's suitable for those who like to dress up and take photos.📸 The architecture of this town is very delicate, with a touch of Jiangnan water town style. The blue hour at dusk, when the lights just come on, is the best time for photos! Don't miss it! The magnificent and charming Yao ethnic costumes really captivated me.🥹
🏯 The Yao ethnic group is one of the ethnic minorities in southern China, mainly distributed in the mountainous areas of Guangxi, Hunan, Yunnan, Guangdong, and Guizhou. The Yao people mainly believe in animism, ancestor worship, and Yao Taoism. Their headwear and clothing are colorful, with diverse styles for both the upper and lower body. Most people prefer to wear blue clothing.
