Danzhai Wanda Town Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in Mar)
We couldn’t stop drooling over all the incredible food options available to us when strolling through the streets and local market of Danzhai. From freshly cured meats and sweets to grilled tofu, sweet potatoes and more, we could have easily stayed an entire day just feasting on food - including these awesome cold rice noodles.
🥢 Cold rice noodles, DIY style. Customised to taste using an array of sauces / condiments and toppings. Just look at those heaped bowls 😍

We travelled 1.5 hours from Libo to Danzhai to experience batik art first-hand; a craft inherited through generations among the Miao ethnic group. While we were disappointed that it wasn’t the intimate workshop we had hoped for in terms of learning more about the history of the craft and the meaning behind the designs and motifs we saw (we were led to a huge open plan room, handed pots of melted wax and told to just get on with it 😆), we loved exploring shops filled with delicately decorated batik prints hidden within the streets of the town, alongside intricate architecture and a street a filled with life.

Shangri-La - Paimo Village
The first dyeing in the East, Paimo.
Unveiling the life of the hometown of Chinese batik art. The documentary 'Blade in the Deep Mountains' introduces us to the hometown of Chinese batik art, which is known as the first dyeing in the East, the Miao village in the mountains: Paimo Village, Danzhai County, Guizhou Miao and Dong Autonomous Prefecture. The entire documentary presents the beautiful life rhythm of the villagers in the form of spring, summer, autumn and winter. They believe that humans are part of nature and depend on nature. They worship grains and regard rice as the supreme totem. It is said that if a grain of rice falls and is not picked up, it will be struck by thunder, and this saying is passed down from generation to generation. In summer, everyone here is a master of batik skills, and indigo is the original material for batik craftsmanship. The color soaked out of the indigo will become the pattern color on the Miao costumes. Indigo needs to be soaked in clear water for about a week. The green indigo water carries people's dreams and yearnings for life, and the rice in the fields is really healing.
Paimo Village is more than thirty kilometers away from the county town. There is a homestay in the village, which is opened by the batik teacher. The price is affordable and their food is delicious.

The Danzhai gold-mercury mine industrial site, as well as the abandoned prison, is located in Longquan Town and Danwu Township, Danzhai County, Guizhou Province. It is a rich mine hidden in the mountains. The
Danzhai gold-mercury mine site has a long history. It is rumored that before the gunpowder was invented, some people were exploited at the site to use the fire and water explosions. According to historical records, during the Tang Dynasty, there were live mercury and silver ornaments produced by Danzhai in the gift of the local toasting court. In July 1940, the Central National Government Resources Committee and the Guizhou Provincial Government Mining Bureau directly managed the Sanhe (Sandu) and Bazhai (Danzhai) mercury mines and opened the 38th Factory.
The old scene here is also one of the best places to view. The movie "The Last Night of the Earth" is completed here. Of course, for travel, this is a new discovery, and it is also the place of adventure and portrait creation!

There are two different claim modes, suitable for users with different needs, I have already claimed an acre! Join the public welfare team together

Danzhai Wanda Town, located in Danzhai County, Guizhou Province, is located on the shore of Donghu Lake. Originally thought that this "new town" that opened in 2017 may be just a "tourist town" invested by Wanda Group. But I never thought that it was actually a national town and a historical town. The whole town was built along the lake and backed by the mountains. The streamlined lake embankment creates a streamlined layout throughout the town. This is a beautiful town with mountains and waters and pleasant scenery. Danzhai Wanda Town covers an area of about 400 acres. It is a characteristic town that integrates natural scenery and national customs. It is also a tourist town integrating culture and commerce. When you walk into the town, the most striking thing is the row of buildings with Miao and Dai styles, blue-gray tiles, flying eaves, hollow wooden windows, and a long wooden screen. The door, the red lanterns hanging down the string, and the unique hanging style of the Miao people, the moment they step into the door, give a sense of realism and simplicity in Miao Village.
