Four Chinese villages named Best Tourism Villages by UN Tourism

Huanggang in Guizhou province

With over 800 years of history, Huanggang is known for its well-preserved Dong-style stilted wooden houses.

The “dongzu dage” (Grand song of the Dong ethnic group), a UNESCO-listed intangible cultural heritage, has been passed down through generations.

By blending traditional practices with modern tourism, the village showcases how cultural preservation and sustainable development can go hand in hand.
