Guiyang Tour,
Guizhou Travel
Guizhou
is a province of China located in the southwestern
part of the country. Its provincial capital
city is Guiyang.
Guiyang, the capital of Guizhou Province,
is a natural fortress. The capricious weather
and the hostile topography, giving Guiyang
the resemblance of a castle in the mist,
seem more at home in Transylvania. Few Han
Chinese even knew these strange lands existed
before the famed geographer Xu Xiake traveled
here in 1636 as part of his 30-year trek
exploring China's sacred mountains (on foot
and unescorted!) Again and again he was
confronted by "massive, labyrinthine
heaps of rock towering wavelike into crests
or busting out like petals, dizzying in
their effect as they jostle and surge toward
the sky!"
The landforms with widely dispersed
karst topography in Guizhou Province have created
picturesque scenery with grandeur. Places of historic
interest and scenic beauty include the Yellow
Fruit Tree Waterfall (Huangguoshu Waterfall),
the Anshun Water Cave of Dragon Palace, the Gold-Knit
Cave, Red Maple Lake, Flower Stream, and the Lesser
Seven-Arched Scenic Site, some of which have been
listed as cultural relics preservation sites under
the state protection.
Guizhou is one of the provinces that
contains the most minority groups. The minority
groups account for more than 37% of the total
population and they include Yao, Miao, Yi, Qiang,
Dong, Zhuang, Buyi, Bai, Tujia, Gelao and Shui.
55.5% of the province area is designated as autonomous
regions for them.
