On Portrait Photography in Ancient Villages

The city of Guiyang is indispensable for traveling in Guizhou. The climate and delicious food in Guiyang deeply attract countless people. I don't know what Guizhou is like in your impression. And what attracts everyone most? I believe many people are interested in Guizhou's unique national characteristics and culture when they travel to Guizhou. Do you think you must go to Qiandongnan if you want to feel the characteristics of ethnic minorities? Actually, it's not. There are many ethnic minority villages in Guiyang, such as Wanggang Village.

Wang Gang Village, also known as Wang Gang Buyi Village, is located in Buyi Township, Xincheng, Wudang District, Guiyang City. It is only 30 kilometers away from Guiyang city, and it is a typical Buyi village. But this village has hardly been publicized, and only a few Guiyang people know it. Many foreign tourists hardly know that Guiyang hides such a famous historical and cultural village. Although it is a small village, it has a history of more than 600 years.

In recent years, with the vigorous development of rural tourism, Wang Gang Buyi village has gradually jumped into everyone's eyes. It is the most beautiful village in Guiyang in 20 17. There are more than 200 people in 85 households in Wang Gang Buyi Village, all of whom are Buyi people, so the Buyi culture in this village is very simple.

Wang Gang's Buyi village is surrounded by mountains and waters, and a small river meanders in front of the village. Walking into the villages along the river, you can feel the rich ethnic flavor and original ecological village architecture. Up to now, Daoguang 15 bronze drums in Qing Dynasty are still preserved in the village center, which records profound and unique cultural details. Although the stockade is small, it has unique national characteristics.

Whether you like ethnic architecture or special cuisine, the Buyi village in Wanggang can satisfy you. Wang Gang Buyi village not only preserves a relatively complete Ganlan complex, but also is known as "the first village in Tang Dynasty". The biggest feature of Wanggang Village is the soup banquet. This traditional Buyi cuisine is famous for its "three dishes, four dishes and eight bowls". These eight bowls are: stewed bean rice with pig's feet, stewed tofu brain with braised pork, braised pork skin, crispy noodles, stewed radish with ribs, vegetarian pumpkin, vegetarian tofu, glutinous rice with flowers, and "Buyi killing pig wine". So far, local tourists in Guiyang have taken the time to come here for a gourmet feast with Buyi characteristics on weekends.

Wang Gang Buyi Village has been awarded the honorary titles of "National Eco-cultural Village" and "China's Most Beautiful Village" for two consecutive years. I recommend arriving in the evening, and then stepping into the village, feeling the smoke curling up like a thin veil and gently covering the whole village, just like a paradise. If you are lucky, you can also see Abreu, the cattle driver, take the cattle home. This picture is really beautiful.

If you are a photography enthusiast, you can also choose to take portraits here and walk in the alleys or corners of the village. As long as you press the shutter, they are all sentimental photos in Juck Zhang.

Wang Gang's Buyi village does not need tickets and is open to the public free of charge all day. There are many gourmet restaurants and inns in the village, which can be said to be all about eating, drinking and having fun.

People who have been to Wang Gang Buyi Village have a good impression on it. After all, the whole village is surrounded by ancient trees, where the river is clear and the waterwheel is turning leisurely. It is a good place with pleasant scenery and strong ethnic flavor.

About transportation: You can take the tourist shuttle bus to Xiangzhigou Scenic Area at Jinyang Bus Station and get off at Wang Gang.

Isn't it the most distinctive to travel to Guizhou and visit ethnic villages, large and small? Isn't it exciting enough to have such a characteristic ethnic village in Guiyang? You can also choose to take a taxi in Guiyang city, which takes only half an hour to forty minutes. This unknown mountain village is full of infinite vitality.
