Cizhong Village

This is not only the middle area where Tibetans, Dais and other ethnic groups coexist, but also the coexistence of Tibetan Buddhism and Catholicism. The Tibetan village in the Lancang River Canyon in Cizhong Village is famous for Catholicism. More than half of the Tibetan villagers in the village believe in Catholicism. Many foreign churches regard this as the starting point of the pilgrimage road. Many ethnic groups, cultures and beliefs are integrated here. The changing natural landscape and the blending humanistic characteristics are breathtaking. The church we visited today is located in the core of the village. Its overall display is a typical Western arch-style architectural style, the bell tower is a Chinese four-corner-topped pavilion building, decorated with Gothic church characteristics, four walls and ceiling painted with exquisite Han, Tibetan, white and other national style patterns, The decoration of the windows and windows is boldly absorbing the characteristics of Tibetan architecture, which is a model of the clever combination of Western architectural style and Chinese Han, Tibetan, Bai and Naxi ethnic architectural styles.

Deqin is the most unforgettable journey in my life. The mountain road is far from being dangerous, but it's very gratifying to have been there, because it's absolutely worth visiting. Infinite scenery is right at the dangerous peak. One word: beauty.

When I went to Yunnan last May, I passed by Cizhong. If you are a devout Catholic believer, you must go to see the Cizhong Church 💒 Cizhong Christian Church ⛪️, one of the ten most beautiful churches in China on the edge of the Lancang River. The church building complex was built in 1909 on the hillside of the lush trees, with green hills behind it. There are farmhouses dotted with architectural groups and natural landscapes in front of them, which are unique. The whole building is centered on the church, combining Chinese and Western, with a compact structure and spectacular scale. - This exquisite ancient church has the characteristics of Basilika church and the characteristic main building of the Roman church, which sits west-to-east, and is a brick and wooden structure. Its front is a tall clock tower, the upper part of the clock tower, although it is a Chinese pavilion, Chinese dart tile roof, but the cross at the top of both ends still citation its Western-style identity. When I walked into the church of Zzhong, there was no one in the church, and time seemed to solidify on the mottled and damp walls. -⚠️ Staying at small tips: Staying at Shengjing Yiju is your place to enter Tibet, enter Bingzhongluo, and enter Meili.
