Guizhou
Experience the vibrancy of your state
Guizhou Province has long been backward in economic development, but its unique natural landscape has preserved a great deal of original ecology and traditional culture.
— “Guizhou is a beautiful woman who lives in seclusion in the deep mountains and old forests.”
Let’s visit her this spring! Stroll through a breathtaking sea of azaleas, admire world-famous waterfalls, experience the fun of camping in caves, learn about the traditional crafts of local ethnic minorities, and explore China’s great engineering projects hidden amidst the mountains and how they have changed Guizhou’s destiny.
Diving into the Azalea Sea (April Excursion)
Visit the world’s largest “natural garden”, walking in the colorful azalea forest, as if in a fairyland.
Embrace the lovely colors of spring - greens and pinks (tour in mid-March)
Stroll through a large farm intertwined with cherry blossom forests and tea plantations. It’s pleasant to feel as if you’re sandwiched tightly between two flavors of cake – cherry blossom and matcha – when you’re surrounded by pale pink on your right hand side and emerald green greenery on the other!

Guzhou Travel Tips
1. Transportation
As China’s new big data valley, Guizhou’s high-speed rail network now connects the country in many directions.
Although Guizhou province is mountainous, the roads leading to the villages are smooth. Therefore, self-driving is the ideal transportation for village-to-village access. In order to provide you with a comfortable traveling experience, we offer a special car service.
2. Hotels and Restaurants
HOTELS: Hotels in your state do not have the same level of amenities and service as hotels in larger cities. Some of the better hotels are equipped with air-conditioning. Hotels in some towns may only offer Chinese breakfast. During tours, there are usually only basic Chinese bathrooms.
Restaurants: Local restaurants serve Chinese food in a simple setting.
3.What to pack
Temperatures can vary greatly between day and night, so warm clothes are required even in summer.
Bring shoes suitable for walking. Mosquito-repellent is also necessary when touring village areas in summer.
